“If you’re not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”– Malcolm X
The way she looked at me tonight. I haven’t had a girl look into my eyes like that in a long time. She was even gracing her leg against mine. She left after our conversation because she won a raffle prize. There was something about her. She has it. I told her that. I told her that she shouldn’t be surprised that she won the raffle prize because she has it. When you are a CEO and in your mid 20′s you are doing something right.
Before I left I walked up to her and asked if she wanted to go out for drinks, she said yeah sure. She went to go put her things down, then started talking to another person. She is awesome at networking and that is for sure. Even though she decided to stay and not go with me to the queer bar in Seattle, i’m fine with it. Sad, yeah, but i’ll get over it.
A young girl climbed up a step ladder to stand at the podium before a tense Charlotte City Council meeting.
Petite in size, with braids in her hair and hearts on her t-shirt, Zianna Oliphant collected herself and delivered her message loud and clear.
“It’s a shame that our fathers and mothers are killed and we can’t see them anymore. It’s a shame that we have to go to their graveyard and bury them. We need our fathers and mothers to be by our side.”
Have you ever wanted to learn more about Google Earth/Maps. Here is your chance. Google is offering free, online, self-paced courses on its mapping products Google Earth, Google Maps, and Maps Engine Lite. You will even have the opportunity to do Google Hangouts with experts in these applications. These courses are designed for those seeking a better understanding about how to get more out of these products. I hope that some young person out there will be spurred into a career in Cartography/Geography/GIS by taking these courses.
