77
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: thanks for having me, I'm so happy to be here.

78
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 1: Well great, you know, because I put the show together

79
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 1: with all my friends and David Letting my staff trying

80
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: to give information because they don't do shows like this

81
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: on radio anymore. When I grew up, there was always

82
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: community based shows where they shove them on Sunday. You know,

83
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 1: if you get up early before church you can hear them,

84
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: you know, and then you don't know what you listening too,

85
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: as you either stay do too late. They even want

86
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 1: to listen that earlier in the morning where it's late

87
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: in the afternoon when you're driving home. This is what

88
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,679
Speaker 1: money making conversation is. I mentioned earlier, graduate of Clark

89
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 1: Atlanta University talking about your experience at Clark, My friend,

90
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 1: Clark Atlanta was a wonderful experience for me. I received

91
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: my NBA here. Um. I also had a scholarship, so

92
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 1: I know the importance of scholarships. I know the importance

93
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 1: of helping to pay for your education. But most importantly,

94
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 1: it was a community. It was family. Um. You walk

95
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: in the door and there was a sense of family,

96
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 1: people who cared about your success and they invested in you. Well.

97
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: The beauty of that is that the third and Marshall

98
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 1: College Fund. And you know we we we hear about opportunities.

99
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: Were here about scholarship. You gotta apply for everything. Now,

100
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 1: I got a big event coming up this Saturday that

101
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: you're going to be called the HBCU College Day, HBCU

102
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: College Day, bringing in military recruiters, corporate recruiters, and and

103
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: HBCU recruiters. And I'm also bringing you in. Why was

104
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: it important? Because I'm bringing in high school seniors and

105
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 1: juniors and young adults. Why isn't is it important that

106
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: you be at that event for the type of students

107
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 1: are crowded. I'm bringing to HBCU College which is on

108
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: the camp the campus of Clark Atlanta University this Saturday,

109
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 1: ten am to six pm. It's important because HBCUs are

110
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 1: important to us. We champion the ambitions of these students.

111
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 1: We see ourselves in a lot of these students. Um

112
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 1: and so the importance is to know that there are

113
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: dollars available. Often you don't know where you're going to

114
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: get the funding for college. You don't know where to start.

115
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 1: So we're here to help you get the start, get

116
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 1: the dollars, get to college. Well, you know, I think

117
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: that when I hear the word dollars that has start. Um,

118
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 1: I know college changed my life. I know that it

119
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 1: took me seven years to graduate. I'm just telling you.

120
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: You got an NBA by time I got the undergraduate.

121
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: But but that's what college allowed me to do. It

122
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: allowed me to found myself mathematics degree by minds and sociology.

123
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:55,479
Speaker 1: And if I had to do it all over again,

124
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: I probably would have major in sociology because it really

125
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: opened my mind about life from a black perspective. You know,

126
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: African American study, Black African American studies and sociology is

127
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 1: an eye opening for anybody if you want to learn

128
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: about how history kind of denies you information. Sure, and

129
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: that's what you know we're dealing with. Now, what information

130
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: you have is the truth? What is not the truth?

131
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: But the truth is you have opportunities. Let's let's break

132
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: down the whole program, the whole process of getting a

133
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: student from point A to point B being a participant

134
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: at Third and Marshall College fund Absolutely. So if you

135
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 1: think about the process, Um, it starts with high school

136
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 1: students getting the information and going after the information. Because

137
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: you're right, it doesn't often it's not often dropped in

138
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 1: your lap. So there has to be an interest. UM.

139
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,679
Speaker 1: You have to understand the process. You have to understand

140
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: how the best position yourself for the process because they're competitive. UM.

141
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 1: We have fifteen thousand students to apply. We gave scholarship

142
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 1: to two thousand students last year over five million UM.

143
00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 1: So the money is there, the opportunity is there if

144
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: you set yourself apart. So as a high school senior

145
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: or junior, you should be thinking about not only where

146
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: you want to go, but how are you going to

147
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: pay for it, how are you going to get there?

148
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: And so working through third of Marshall College Fund, we

149
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: have we realize Black excellence comes in all forms, whether

150
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: you're going to college or four year college. We have

151
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 1: programs for that. UM. We have vocational trade school students.

152
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: If you decide college is not for you, but you

153
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: want to be excellent at uh being being a barber

154
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: or a beautician or some sort of electrical engineer where

155
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: you are sorry electrician, to get a certificate. We have

156
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,959
Speaker 1: funding right now. Scholarship program open sally May. Up to

157
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: six hundred and twenty five thousand dollars available for first

158
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 1: year students as well, So you know, maybe you gotta

159
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,079
Speaker 1: get on there with me. You got you know that

160
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 1: that trade school, because like I said, everybody is in

161
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: my My younger brother he has four barbers barbershops in

162
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,080
Speaker 1: the D C. Area. So I know because he joined

163
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: the military and then he came out and it became

164
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 1: an entreprenuri X ray technician and then he became an

165
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: entrepreneur in the in the in the barbershop field. So

166
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,559
Speaker 1: I know that he he wasn't cut out to do college.

167
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 1: He didn't want to go to college, but that didn't

168
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 1: stop him from being a successful entrepreneur. And when you

169
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 1: told me that, I never like to pigeonhole people to

170
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,439
Speaker 1: say that if you don't go to college your failure.

171
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: That's not true. You go where your dream or your

172
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,199
Speaker 1: passion takes you, or your gifts allow you to blossom.

173
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: That's what you have to do. And so when you

174
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 1: told me about the barber, the beauty, the trades coupe,

175
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: why haven't I heard about that before? Well? Two things.

176
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: I think in our community we measure success through degrees

177
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: and stature, um, but we are just starting to have

178
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 1: the partnerships where we know there's more to black excellence

179
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: than the traditional path that we've been sold before. UM,

180
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: we understand, just as you said, you can be successful

181
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: through trade, through entrepreneurship, and so we are tapping partners

182
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: that believe as we do to invest in these students.

183
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: Close the gap. If you're close to getting that certificate, UM,

184
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 1: but you don't have the dollars for that last semester,

185
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: we have them um again up to six hundred and

186
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: twenty five thousand, up to two hundred and fifty scholarships.

187
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 1: We just need the bodies to apply. Wow, did you

188
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,319
Speaker 1: hear that? Called? Four zero four eight zero nine to

Speaker 1: also go to t MCF dot org completing TMCF dot

192
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: org for completing the dream the Sally May Fund Scholarship.

193
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 1: You know, sometimes I get mad, you know, because I

194
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: see these kids, especially in the Atlanta the water boards

195
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 1: out there. They you're almost like they don't know, they

196
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,199
Speaker 1: don't know that. And I could have been a water boar.

197
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 1: I was out there. I remember when I was in

198
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 1: their age. Know, if I saw a newspaper, I picked

199
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 1: it up and went and sold it downtown to make

200
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: my little extra money. But but there are options, and

201
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: so to have you on this show and we're not

202
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: she's gonna be here for a minute now. I didn't

203
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: just bring on and say hi and bye, because we're

204
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: gonna talk about her life as well. But I wanted

205
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 1: to make sure people understand. I'm shocked when I hear

206
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: things like this, you know, and and I'm one of

207
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: the people who are supposed to know. So that means

208
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: that the people who don't know really have no clue,

209
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: and they're sitting around there not allowing their kid or

210
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 1: their child to see an opportunity to be different or

211
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: live a different life. And when tell me about the

212
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: Sally May I got that, and now that's totally different

213
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,960
Speaker 1: or is it under the same umbrella of the third

214
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,959
Speaker 1: grad Marshall Cornordge Fund. Are they two different? Because once

215
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 1: for a four year institution, right and then once for

216
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 1: a trade school? Is am I correct? So we have

217
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 1: so many different programs. And the interesting thing is the

218
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: paper on you know, I didn't want to pull out

219
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 1: the paper on your day Brown. You know, she gonna

220
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 1: she's gonna act like, you know, she's like, I didn't

221
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:00,839
Speaker 1: do my homework. I pulled out paper when there come

222
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:04,239
Speaker 1: on keep talking. We have quite a few different scholarships.

223
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: One money only and that's what this is, Sally made fun.

224
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:12,319
Speaker 1: We give you the money right. Um. We have opportunities

225
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:16,199
Speaker 1: where we build skills. There's a City Foundation Career Incubator

226
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 1: that helps you figure out what you want to do

227
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: and helps you to build the skill level so that

228
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: you can compete in that area. Just skill building and

229
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 1: then we have the word that you like, the wraparound

230
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: services that bats I was seeing. Her CMO ms Horton

231
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 1: was at the HBCU College Day in Winston Salem which

232
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 1: is Winston sale State University last week last Saturday, and

233
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: that was the first time I heard about it. It

234
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: was like it was so eloquent and she spent all day.

235
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: They're passing the information because so many people are table

236
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 1: head the lines. She was just busy all day because

237
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 1: people were just so you know, it's beautiful when you

238
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: come to HBCU College Day because you do see the

239
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: parents with their children, you see influence, you see coaches,

240
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: you see what you don't see on TV. As African American,

241
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 1: we are so stereotyped by the media. Sometimes they only

242
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 1: show the negative aspect of our of our success story

243
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: and our success story is just like I've told everybody,

244
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 1: I want to say a thing and the white people want.

245
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 1: I want a nice house, you know, I want security.

246
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,079
Speaker 1: I get afraid with somebody breaking my house. Okay, I

247
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 1: don't want people living across street and I think gonna

248
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: steer my car. Same values, I got, same values now.

249
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 1: But then somebody they think black people want to want

250
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: to live like that. That's or they like they like

251
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: the hood, they like they like they like worrying about it.

252
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,319
Speaker 1: They want people to steer. They stuff, they thieves, you know.

253
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,319
Speaker 1: And that gets me so mad because that's why it's

254
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,439
Speaker 1: important that we understand the options that are available to us,

255
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: because we don't know because of the fact that we're

256
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 1: not serviced that way with information. And that's what you're

257
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 1: doing right now. You're serving us information. We go to church,

258
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 1: but church doesn't always give us this information. Sure, and

259
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 1: I think a lot of it too, is there are

260
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: a lot of students at our first generation and so

261
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: they are figuring it out and mom Um, dad, auntie, grandma.

262
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 1: They don't know where to start, they don't know how

263
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,439
Speaker 1: to help. So you're right, that's why we're here. We're

264
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 1: having this conversation. They're listening. They're gonna show up on Saturday,

265
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: eager to get the information and eager to figure out

266
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 1: how do they get their son, grandson, nephew into college. UM.

267
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 1: But again, what we love about what we do is

268
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: it's not just getting you to college. It's getting you

269
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: through college and then creating an economic mobility program or

270
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 1: opportunity for you so that you're successful, that you can

271
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: have those big houses like Mr McDonald's, what you're going

272
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 1: let me know. I'm like, I'm a brag about my success.

273
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: You know. So even don't die soon, you better have

274
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 1: somebody letting you know you did something for your diet. Now,

275
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 1: tell us about your at your high school student because

276
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: you know you you came on a scholarship. Okay, you

277
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: got your NBA from here. Okay, why Clark Atlanta University?

278
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: Oh wow? So I went to University of Georgia undergrad. UM,

279
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 1: had a great experience, transferred It's exactly, then transferred to

280
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 1: Georgia State. UM, but I missed that HBCU experience. I

281
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 1: wanted to have it. UM. I also saw that my

282
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: friends who were in the classes before me had a

283
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: lot of opportunities with big companies because this is where

284
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: companies were coming for African American talent. And I remember

285
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 1: being at Georgia State graduating and nobody was really checking

286
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: for me. I was an average student, um, so I

287
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: didn't have the grades that blew them away. And so

288
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: I did end up with a job, but nothing like

289
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 1: the opportunities that I received what I left Clark. People

290
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 1: came to Clark Atlanta looking for diverse talent um and

291
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 1: I had several opportunities when I left here, And you know,

292
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 1: I mentioned some of them right there the cod Gate

293
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 1: because that's because we kind of like cross lines with

294
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 1: Steve Harvey. And I was up in New York doing

00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 1: zero four eight eight zero nine to five five. I

361
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 1: stated earlier that one of the reasons Jane Dana is

362
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:35,640
Speaker 1: on the show today is that she's gonna be coming

363
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 1: to the HBCU College Day event that is on the

364
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:42,239
Speaker 1: campus of Clark Atlanta University this Saturday, And let's talk

365
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 1: about that a little bit because it's important to weave

366
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: everything together. I'm gonna have military recruiters from the Air Force,

367
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 1: their National Guard, Air Force Reserve, r OTC, and Space Force.

368
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: Gonna have corporate recruiters from Morgan Stanley, Coca Cola Bottling Company,

369
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 1: United Eups, and the Aspired Group. And then the big

370
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: one hbc US on campus of Clark Atlanta University will

371
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: be Alabama State University, Bishop State Community College, Shelton State. Uh,

372
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna have as well as St. Augustine. We're gonna

373
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 1: have a We're gonna have Clark will be here. Of course,

374
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,199

Speaker 1: in college will be here, Share will be here, and

376
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: paying college will be here. So with that being said,

377
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 1: that's a reason for Thurgood Marshall College fun to be

378
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,240
Speaker 1: here because your scholarships are only for HBCUs AM correct

379
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: some but even when we talk about wrap around services

380
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: are visa program um. You don't have to go to

381
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 1: an hbc U or a PBI predominantly black institution. UM.

382
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 1: We offer four years of scholarship funding up to twenty

Speaker 1: dollars a year UM to internships and a potential job

384
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 1: offer UM. That's what Wrap around Services looks like, what

385
00:20:56,040 --> 00:21:00,400
Speaker 1: it sounds like, UM. And that's an opportunity for incomings

386
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 1: the first years or if you're already in a program,

387
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 1: I want your website and it's just a sponsors sponse

389
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 1: companies that believe in this program. But again it's all

390
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,400
Speaker 1: about getting the word out. You know, my friend brother

391
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: Terrence J. He's the brand ambassador. What role is Terrence J?

00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,400
Speaker 1: Who came from up your graduate from North Carolina. South Carolina,

393
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: which is the largest black HC also graduates more black

394
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: engineers than any HBCU or any predominant white institution is

395
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 1: North Carolina ANTI. So if you're interested in engineering, consider

396
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: that cool interested in nursing, considering which the Stem State

397
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: University I got, I got, I got, I got. But

398
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 1: then it's about education. So you get these people like me,

399
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: my pieces out there to tell your brand. Let's talk

400
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,160
Speaker 1: a little bit about you, a little history about you,

401
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 1: because like you said, it gave you the tools. Then

402
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 1: you went into the corporate world. Right, Okay, talk about

403
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:04,479
Speaker 1: that journey because New York City too, But you were

404
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,880
Speaker 1: born in New York City, but you were raised in Atlanta, Georgia. Absolutely,

405
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 1: look at you. You did do your homework to become

406
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 1: in this room. I gotta act like I know something.

407
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 1: But you went back to the Big Apple did, which

408
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: is a very busy, very crowded, very pushy environment if

409
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 1: you're not ready for it. What made you excel in

410
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 1: that environment? I did have family there, so I had

411
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 1: a support system. UM. But I think what you learned

412
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 1: at an HBCU, specifically what I learned at Clark Atlanta University.

413
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: You have hustle, grind and grit. UM. You know how

414
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 1: to make things happen. You know how to make away

415
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 1: when there isn't a way, when normal people don't see it.

416
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 1: Way you put things together. You know how to make

417
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: the connections. UM. You build a community where you are

418
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 1: UM and you find mentors. UM. That's what you learned

419
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,120
Speaker 1: at an HBCU is specifically what I learned at Clark

420
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: Atlanta University, and it's what helped me be successful in

421
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 1: New York. You know when I am, and you know,

422
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 1: we had their racial awakening, especially with the George Floyd's tragedy, tragedy, tragedy,

423
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, HBCUs started receiving these

424
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 1: corporate donations led by Mackenzie Scott, we believe delivered like

425
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: four point one billion dollars and donations to various hbc

426
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,480
Speaker 1: s across this country. But you know what annoyed me,

427
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,360
Speaker 1: Nobody did a story as to why these HBCUs will

428
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 1: get these donations. And when I say that, it's about

429
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: the academics that HBCUs keeps pushing out to. You know,

430
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: percent of the Black teachers in public schools are from HBCUs.

431
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 1: You know seven percent of the lawyers are for black

432
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 1: from hbc US. These are numbers, are just a fact,

433
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 1: and a lot of these numbers can be found on

434
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 1: the website if you want to back them up, you

435
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 1: want to learn more about the value hbc US. I

436
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,640
Speaker 1: guess I talked about it a lot, and I didn't

437
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: graduate from one. I enrolled as my freshman year in

438
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,719
Speaker 1: Southern University and baton Rouge and uh and and just

439
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,440
Speaker 1: got homesick and went back. It was got a job

440
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 1: as a forklift driver. My aspirations weren't very high by

441
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: myself within college. Then when you got a job as

442
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 1: a forklift driver, Okay, where was this going for you?

443
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 1: It was about leadership, is about mentorship. And I think

444
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,360
Speaker 1: that that's what I hear the most when I talk

445
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,639
Speaker 1: to people who graduate or go to HBCUs is the

446
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,880
Speaker 1: family environment, the mentorship. Talk about that absolutely. Um. I

447
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 1: think when you're at an HBCU, it's not just reaching up,

448
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,880
Speaker 1: you're reaching back, um. So each one pulls one up. Um.

449
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,639
Speaker 1: And you also have your class that you come in

450
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 1: with and you're supporting one another, so that once you

451
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 1: start to go out into the workforce globally and compete,

452
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:46,439
Speaker 1: you have a sisterhood or a brotherhood from that hbc U.

453
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,199
Speaker 1: I mean, of course we're both in Greek organizations, so

454
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,400
Speaker 1: naturally we have that bond. But it goes even beyond that.

455
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 1: And you think about bringing don't do me like that.

456
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 1: I'm rocking in the chair walking into chail. Well. The

457
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,119
Speaker 1: fun thing about the relationships, that's what we're talking about. It.

458
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 1: One of join us on this conversation is four zero

459
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: four eight zero five five is four zero four eight

460
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 1: A zero five, Um, when you had to make a

461
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,200
Speaker 1: college decision, Like I told you, I went to Southern

462
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: and enrolled, was in freshman orientation, and then I bailed out,

463
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,439
Speaker 1: went back to my hometown in Houston, Texas. Got me

464
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: a job as a you know, a forklif driver, and

465
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: I probably was a state of forklif driver, but I

466
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: didn't really I really wasn't that talented because I dropped

467
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 1: a box on the guy's hand and broke his hand,

468
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 1: and guy called me and said this is not for you.

469
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,439
Speaker 1: He fired me. So that ended my career as a

470
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 1: forklif driver. So I stumbled around and eventually made it

471
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: back into college that fall, and then like seven years later,

472
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 1: eventually graduated with a degree in mathematics and minded sociology.

473
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 1: As I stated earlier, but you you seem like you

474
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 1: knew what you wanted to do. Is that true? I'm

475
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 1: just looking at a person who was just I'm just

476
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: looking you use confidence, you know, you success, you a

477
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,400
Speaker 1: sense of balance. What were you like as a as

478
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,679
Speaker 1: a seventeen eight year old person trying to make a

479
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 1: decision about her life. Oh great question, um, seventeen eighteen

480
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:21,400
Speaker 1: high school senior. Um, I knew I was going to college.

481
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,159
Speaker 1: It was just embedded in me. My family said, you

482
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: are going what I wanted to do. I didn't know necessarily,

483
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: but I knew what I liked and I liked math.

484
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 1: I like numbers, So finance was that UM very limited.

485
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,119
Speaker 1: I didn't do a lot of reading in high school,

486
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: so I didn't have exposure to a lot of different careers. UM.

487
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:46,880
Speaker 1: Finished my undergraduate experience at Georgia State University. Worked all

488
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,880
Speaker 1: over the place. I was at an insurance company and

489
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:51,920
Speaker 1: to your point, just a bank and just trying to

490
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 1: find my way. And I had a friend that was

491
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,920
Speaker 1: in business school and she introduced me to brand marketing

492
00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 1: right and I'm a natural storyteller. That's one of my passions,

493
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 1: writing telling stories. So then I started writing brand stories UM.

494
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,080
Speaker 1: And that's where I was really passionate UM getting consumers

495
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 1: to fall in love with my brands, the brands that

496
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: I was managing, the brands that I was promoting, all

497
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 1: the brands that I was developing. UM. So once I

498
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 1: got to business school, I found my niche. I was

499
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 1: extremely excited and you know, thrilled to wake up and

500
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: do what I was doing. Where I didn't have that

501
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 1: feeling in undergrad, I was like partying. I had a

502
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 1: really good time in the undergrad but I wasn't focused.

503
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,879
Speaker 1: Um So I needed that time to find myself in

504
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,479
Speaker 1: to experience the things that I didn't want to do,

505
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: so that when I landed where I was supposed to be,

506
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: it felt natural and was very organic. Why did the

507
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 1: sorority play a role in your life? Oh? Wow? I

508
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,680
Speaker 1: had so many wonderful big sisters through the process, not

509
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 1: just pledging when you say big sisters, but people who

510
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 1: became family and guided me, exposed, um mentored me to

511
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 1: your point and then that give back. You're doing the

512
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: community service and you're learning more about yourself, how much

513
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 1: you have to give, and learning to stretch yourself. Um. So, yeah,

514
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: that's always been a phenomenal experience being part of the

515
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: Alpha cupea Health Authority Incorporated and throw our little memory there.

516
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 1: That was a good party and moment back in the day.

517
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying now with the third Good

518
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 1: Marshall College Fund, I I'm I'm listening to the radio show.

519
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 1: I'm a parent or influence or a coach or a teacher.

520
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,160
Speaker 1: How do we go through the process? Can you walking

521
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 1: through some very simple states, because we talk about is

522
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 1: available on the website TMCF dot org, right, and that's

523
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 1: TMCF dot org. But you go there, it's a lot

524
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 1: going on there about you got the home, you got

525
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: the scholarships, you've got the students. I can see it

526
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: right now, that little navigation right at the top. How

527
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: do I walk through the valley of confusion so I

528
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 1: can successfully get my my daughter or my son, or

529
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: my of my somebody mentoring in this direction of being

530
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: able to get these benefits. And do you have to

531
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 1: be a super student. That's a very good question. So

532
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: on average your g p A should be a three

533
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 1: point oh um. But you need to be ready to

534
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: compete on paper. You know, have an essay that you've

535
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 1: vetted that's rich with information that sells you, that pitches

536
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 1: you the best of you and your intentions and ambitions. Well,

537
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 1: it was it was a funny part about miss Horton,

538
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 1: who to c She was saying that a lot of

539
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 1: applications people kind of like duct tape your copy the

540
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 1: copy of the paragative the essay that they had on

541
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 1: another and bringing over there, not putting any effort into it.

542
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 1: You laugh, because obviously that's the truth, just duct taping

543
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 1: scholars of application to the next You change one line

544
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 1: or two lines, and you say, I think that this

545
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 1: will work, um, but not necessarily. So you need to

546
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 1: put thought in it. You need to put energy. You

547
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 1: need to make sure that you're positioning yourself for the

548
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 1: wind because they're very competitive. As I said, we had

549
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 1: ten thousand uh st to apply. So so you're sitting

550
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 1: up there trying to determine your life and you just

551
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 1: duct taping the essay on top of something else, thinking

552
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 1: that's how you go because you do it now, it's

553
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 1: gonna happen later on when you trying to move forward

554
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 1: in your life. That's what it's about. Effort and about

555
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 1: making sure that the effort leads off into something more successful.

556
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 1: Or another common mistake you wait until the night before

557
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,719
Speaker 1: and then you look at the components of the application

558
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 1: and you need to references, and it's the night before, right.

559
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 1: The application isn't complete without those references. So let's back up.

560
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 1: So we're going to the website. What do I click? First? Oh,

561
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 1: my scholarships, Chalars, you're looking for scholarships. Click scholarships. I'm

562
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 1: trying to empty forgotten that you know they get on

563
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:55,160
Speaker 1: the website. They all just like me. I look like

564
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 1: I got it going on. But I get on this website,

565
00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 1: to the phone, my phone. People keep telling me why

566
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 1: I phone and said, Hey, don't worry, I'm going buy

567
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 1: a new flip phone. I'm about this. I'm trying to

568
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 1: step back fancy. That's all I'm trying to see with

569
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 1: your career. And you went to Clark Atlanta University. I'm

570
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 1: over here just trying to make it happen for myself.

571
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 1: So you said on a lot of councils, you know

572
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 1: that you sat on the Girls Incorporate a Great Atlanta

573
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 1: board where you know, he committed the development of strong,

574
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 1: bold and small girls and underserved communities. I have a daughter,

575
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 1: and uh, and so that absolutely better believe it. You

576
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 1: better believe she's a she's learning taypewondo down the Orange

577
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: Belt and so but young girls, you know, uh, it's

578
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 1: been a major shift, you know. And and I say

579
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 1: this because when I when I grew up under B. E. T.

580
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 1: You know B E T and all the girls with

581
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 1: shaking it and shaking it and and then all of

582
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 1: a sudden we see now where we see the pro

583
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 1: thought process of being able to deliver an opportunity for

584
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: Black women to see more than themselves in their physicality.

585
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: And that's what you represent. You represent the growth of

586
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: a person who can win big at another level because

587
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 1: you've shown that education not on education at an HBCU,

588
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: but education in life allows you to be more than

589
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 1: what people to expect you you from a physical role.

590
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 1: Talk about that. Thank you. I love it because a

591
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 1: lot of people think that HBCUs UM students from HBCUs

592
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 1: can't compete, and that's the question, like are you competitive? Absolutely? Again,

593
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: you know that it's not just who you know. You

594
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 1: know that, it's what you know. Um, you're not relying

595
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 1: on any lineage your first generation. You're hungry, you're ambitious,

596
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: and you have a community behind you. Um. The other piece,

597
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 1: I mean, look at what's happening in sports with Dion Sanders. Yes, Well,

598

708
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:50,440
Speaker 1: do when you when you, when you look at the

709
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,719
Speaker 1: world that you control, you know you you you are,

710
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 1: like said, I first met you when the Hennessee Fellows

711
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,959
Speaker 1: with Steve kind of met you indvertently, Like I said,

712
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,640
Speaker 1: our lives have been really interesting because I kind of

713
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:06,760
Speaker 1: passed you in the hallway at Colgate with Steve Harvey,

714
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: and then I represented Steven A. Smith. I kind of

715
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 1: talked to you when he was doing a speaking engagement,

716
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 1: and now I'm interviewing the interviewing you're on the show

717
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:23,399
Speaker 1: about the third and Marshall College. So but the thing

718
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:26,800
Speaker 1: I love about when I was listening to Miss Horton talking,

719
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,799
Speaker 1: went to say them the wrap around services when you

720
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 1: go scholarship, internship job, how talk to me? That sounds

721
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 1: so simple, but I know it took a lot of

722
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 1: work to be able to put a program like that

723
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 1: in place and also create the business relationships to be

724
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,439
Speaker 1: able to have it as as as a campaign, as

725
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:50,319
Speaker 1: a system in place that you can trust and you

726
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 1: can say it in public because it's true. Absolutely. The

727
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 1: interesting thing is we have a lot of those programs

728
00:39:56,480 --> 00:40:01,840
Speaker 1: um Apple. You have Apple scholars Um where our students

729
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 1: are getting scholarship dollars, internship opportunities, and full placement opportunities. UM.

730
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: As you mentioned, I managed the Hennessey Fellows program and

731
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 1: that was for graduate students. So we're looking at targeting

732
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: high school students, junior seniors to help you get into college,

733
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 1: while you're in college, to help you get through college,

734
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,880
Speaker 1: for undergrad students, and then even in graduate school. We

735
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 1: have programs where there was an opportunity that the Hennessee

736
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,680
Speaker 1: team saw to unlock the C suite. There wasn't a

737
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 1: lot of diversity at the C suite level. So let's

738
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:41,400
Speaker 1: train ten gifted talented students c suite. What is that CEO,

739
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 1: c m O, CFO see because you know you hear

740
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,759
Speaker 1: that long now, I could have said what was trying?

741
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,760
Speaker 1: I do know that, but they just thrown out an interview.

742
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 1: It just thrown out in print, but it never My

743
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,839
Speaker 1: whole thing is that there's so much information as being,

744
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:01,240
Speaker 1: especially within the technology that we have digital apps and everything,

745
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 1: and that sweets you know, first of all, the glass ceiling. Okay,

746
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,279
Speaker 1: that's that was the original term, you know, breaking the

747
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 1: glass ceiling. Now the term is c suite, unlocking the

748
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 1: c And so in order to do that, you have

749
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:17,919
Speaker 1: to have relationships. That is what a lot of people

750
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 1: don't understand. I am only on this radio show because

751
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 1: of relationships that I've met and having and created over

752
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:28,280
Speaker 1: the years. In other words, let's let's put to this perspective. Okay,

753
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: you didn't know me at Cold Gate. What if I

754
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,800
Speaker 1: went there and you heard that Steve Harvey was a

755
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 1: jerk and a guy with him was a double jerk,

756
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 1: you know, then that would that would that would permeate

757
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 1: to across the hallways of Cold Gate. Was working with

758
00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:46,719
Speaker 1: a black agency at agency called Uni World. It had

759
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 1: permeated back to them and that relationship would have been destroyed.

760
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,239
Speaker 1: But because we didn't do that, we were positive, were

761
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 1: proactive and understand the value relationship. It allows us to

762
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 1: carry a stronger reputation and a lot of people to

763
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:03,360
Speaker 1: understand Our reputation can be made and broken by what

764
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:05,680
Speaker 1: you say and do around people talk about that you

765
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 1: were building your brand. You established a value for who

766
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 1: you are, what you had to contribute, and then it

767
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:17,759
Speaker 1: became legacy. People knew the value attached to the name.

768
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,360
Speaker 1: They knew what they were getting, the type of product,

769
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 1: the type of service. Um, you built a brand for yourself. Now,

770
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 1: when you talk about brands, I remember because because you're

771
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,200
Speaker 1: kind of coming into my little world here, because I

772
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:34,880
Speaker 1: didn't go into marketing. I studied that IBM. I did

773
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,440
Speaker 1: my undergraduate two an a half years. Would I be

774
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,000
Speaker 1: m two an alf years as a full time employee?

775
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:44,680
Speaker 1: There isn't math, but I always understood. But I saw

776
00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:46,840
Speaker 1: Steve Harvy when I started managing him in two thousand,

777
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 1: there was a philosophy in my head. Why can't I

778
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,200
Speaker 1: treat him like a business? Why can I treat him

779
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:54,920
Speaker 1: like the company? Why can I have the same standards

780
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:58,879
Speaker 1: for him that I be in would have? Right? And

781
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 1: so that's when the whole process of being a brand

782
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,560
Speaker 1: kind of kind of transferred for me from a corporate

783
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,840
Speaker 1: structure to an individual. I remember when I was I

784
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,560
Speaker 1: got honored as a like a manager of the Hall

785
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:15,359
Speaker 1: of Fame, and I remember William Shatner was I've never

786
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,439
Speaker 1: met his manager was being honored at the same time.

787
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 1: He said, he said, he said, they got Rushan McDonald

788
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,720
Speaker 1: changed the game, you know, because he said he figured

789
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 1: it out. He he kind of figured it out for

790
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 1: us all that that an individual can actually have the

791
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 1: same values that a company. And that's where the word

792
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 1: brand comes into play now because of the fact that

793
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,279
Speaker 1: you should have the same standards of excellence that the

794
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:42,239
Speaker 1: corporation has, which means that you should have to be

795
00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,319
Speaker 1: responsible for your product and guess what your product is

796
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,040
Speaker 1: you And that's why it's really really important that we

797
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,520
Speaker 1: hear all these things and we went in a big way.

798
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:53,320
Speaker 1: It isn't that correct, It is And it's positioning yourself.

799
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:55,840
Speaker 1: I think that's the biggest thing. How do you position yourself?

800
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:59,799
Speaker 1: What do you want people to think about? Associated? Associate

801
00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 1: with few because that's what's going to allow you to

802
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,280
Speaker 1: extend your brand. That's what's going to take Steve Harvey

803
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:11,360
Speaker 1: from stand up to sitcom to radio show to family

804
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,160
Speaker 1: feud host. Right, yes, yes, and I know that for

805
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:18,000
Speaker 1: a fact. And then closing, my friend Dana Brown, we're

887
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,360
Speaker 1: is some people get fired before they get hired. That

888
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:56,000

Speaker 1: woman of color leading this organization, you know, through a

893
00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:14,560
Speaker 1: transition because you always you know, you know, everything can

894
00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:17,000
Speaker 1: become stale and not sending the brand is stale, but

895
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:20,319
Speaker 1: you always have motivational techniques and brands. You change and

896
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:24,960

00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,279
Speaker 1: over there, and you know then I'm gonna get nosy, sonny.

917
00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:43,359
Speaker 1: I'm gonna look around, you know, I want the old

918
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,440
Speaker 1: black people, you know, just walk in the building, started

919
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:47,839
Speaker 1: looking around and touching stuff. That's why they put ropes

920
00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:50,200
Speaker 1: up around people for people like me. I touched up

921
00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:52,160
Speaker 1: and so. But you walk in there, you see the

922
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:56,120
Speaker 1: rich history and the incredible players who are who been

923
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:57,879
Speaker 1: a part of this and like I said, I went

924
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:00,120
Speaker 1: to one of you. One of your famous players went

925
00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:02,960
Speaker 1: to the same college that I graduated from, University Houston,

926
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:07,680
Speaker 1: Lewis Dunbar, and he became an iconic, uh not only athlete,

927
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:10,280
Speaker 1: but then you guys were making transitions to these guys.

928
00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:12,920
Speaker 1: They come to the game over the Harlem Globetrotters. And

929
00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:15,600
Speaker 1: I like to make that statement because these are highly skilled,

930
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:19,600
Speaker 1: professional people who have just turning their game into an

931
00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:26,280
Speaker 1: entertainment factor. Correct, absolutely, absolutely, Now wait a minute, resign.

932
00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:28,520
Speaker 1: You just told me you went to the same high

933
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:31,920
Speaker 1: school as lou Dumbar. No college, college, so don't me

934
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:37,600
Speaker 1: in high school? Ain't that over college? University of Houston,

935
00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:41,400
Speaker 1: University College. I went to see you. I watched Louis Dumbar.

936
00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:43,920
Speaker 1: He was playing in college when I was watching him.

937
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:48,799
Speaker 1: Is a legend six knight and a half. He was

938
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 1: Magic Johnson before Magic Johnson. See that's right, that's how

939
00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:55,680
Speaker 1: that's how cold he was. Now he's what does he

940
00:51:55,719 --> 00:52:01,040
Speaker 1: eats the coach now? Right? Absolutely so Again, there's just

941
00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:04,160
Speaker 1: so much like in the office, you can go through

942
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:09,440
Speaker 1: that history and meeting and working with Coach Low and

943
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:14,279
Speaker 1: hearing his story. The thing that makes a glowtalter. So

944
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:20,959
Speaker 1: special is they bring this incredible skill and style of basketball,

945
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 1: but they want you to laugh and have a good time.

946
00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:27,319
Speaker 1: But they've been doing it for decades. But you know something,

947
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:30,560
Speaker 1: you're you're representing something that's even special. The reason I

948
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:34,000
Speaker 1: say that is that, uh, you know your your graduate

949
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:36,640
Speaker 1: of Clark Atlanta University. That had Dana Brown on earlier

950
00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:39,000
Speaker 1: the first half of the show. She's a graduate of

951
00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:44,120
Speaker 1: Clark Atlanta University's HPCU is a very powerful academic institution.

952
00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:46,640
Speaker 1: And when I had you on my show earlier, we

953
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:49,120
Speaker 1: talked about that, and I like to work before were

954
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:51,799
Speaker 1: going to further interview, I want you to share your

955
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:55,200
Speaker 1: experience and why hbc has played such an important role

956
00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:58,800
Speaker 1: in your success as a as a person who who's

957
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:03,920
Speaker 1: rising into the c C suite territory. Yes, forever, I

958
00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:08,200
Speaker 1: love Clark Atlanta University from some of my very best

959
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,680
Speaker 1: days were on that campus. And I can't wait to

960
00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:18,399
Speaker 1: get back there Saturday for the CCU tour. Um. Well,

961
00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:21,239
Speaker 1: you know the thing about it is talk about what

962
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:23,080
Speaker 1: you were saying, sunny, Um, I can't wait to get

963
00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 1: back there for the HBCU College Day on Saturday. But

964
00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:32,400
Speaker 1: my time at Clark Atlanta. I was challenged, I was inspired,

965
00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:37,640
Speaker 1: I was um really truly lived out sort of the

966
00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:40,120
Speaker 1: motto of find a way of make one that just

967
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:46,240
Speaker 1: really became ingrained in me. In terms of business professionally, Um,

968
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:48,879
Speaker 1: I've met so many people of color from so many

969
00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:52,680
Speaker 1: different walks of life and built so many relationships that

970
00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:56,640
Speaker 1: continue to drive me both professionally and personally today. Now

971
00:53:56,400 --> 00:54:00,560
Speaker 1: we're not talking about being a female in a black

972
00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:05,000
Speaker 1: woman in this position. I is it too much being

973
00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:07,560
Speaker 1: made of that? Or it still is a path that

974
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:09,920
Speaker 1: needs to be recognized as being unique. And the more

975
00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 1: doors need to be open, Absolutely, more doors need to

976
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:16,600
Speaker 1: be open. I hear more now, um than ever, people

977
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:20,840
Speaker 1: saying to me that they're inspired because they see people

978
00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:23,440
Speaker 1: that look like them, they see women that look like them.

979
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:27,960
Speaker 1: And leadership and now that now there are a couple

980
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:30,360
Speaker 1: of things that are happening with you in the In

981
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:33,319
Speaker 1: the Globetrotters, you know, it talks about black excellence on

982
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 1: off the court, black excellence in the boardroom. And then

983
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:39,319
Speaker 1: it turns out to be what the success? Because I

984
00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:43,840
Speaker 1: was asking Dana the same question about success. What is success?

985
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:47,160
Speaker 1: Because you not only this is not your first stop

986
00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:50,359
Speaker 1: as a person who's done marketing and Brandon, You've done

987
00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:54,160
Speaker 1: theme parks, You've done other levels of Like I said,

988
00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:59,719
Speaker 1: transitioning to this role of an iconic brand because it

989
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,520
Speaker 1: us come with a little fear, doesn't it? Sunday? Because

990
00:55:02,520 --> 00:55:05,080
Speaker 1: of the fact that it is laid out there. You've

991
00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:08,080
Speaker 1: seen it. You people can tell you the thing something

992
00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:10,800
Speaker 1: like I tried to sing it. You know those red strips,

993
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:13,640
Speaker 1: those pants that balld is read, you know you the

994
00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,600
Speaker 1: currly nails sliding up the for the metal loock linnen

995
00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:20,680
Speaker 1: hook shot. You know all that's coming in there to you?

996
00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,799
Speaker 1: How do you not stay? How do you not how

997
00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 1: do you stay calm? Because you're in a calm on

998
00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:29,080
Speaker 1: this call now and you're the you. You made decision,

999
00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:32,840
Speaker 1: you shifted, you rebranded it. What what what made you

1000
00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:36,839
Speaker 1: so bold? What made you the confidence to say this

1001
00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:41,719
Speaker 1: is fantastic, but it needs a little push? Mm hmm.

1002
00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:46,719
Speaker 1: I've been blessed with a gift, and I think in

1003
00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:50,839
Speaker 1: my career I've had opportunities and I believe that that

1004
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:54,359
Speaker 1: door is crash, you gotta bust it open. And I

1005
00:55:54,400 --> 00:56:01,239
Speaker 1: think fear um can be powerful um and motivating just

1006
00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:04,239
Speaker 1: if you kind of trust and belief and one who

1007
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:06,840
Speaker 1: you are. So I was kind of thinking about like

1008
00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:10,720
Speaker 1: what might I share, you know, if whoever is listening.

1009
00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:17,399
Speaker 1: And for me, that fear is motivating because I want

1010
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:19,920
Speaker 1: to make an imprint. I want to make a difference.

1011
00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:22,400
Speaker 1: I'm only as good as the people around me. For

1012
00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:25,719
Speaker 1: my team, I want to see people would develop and

1013
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:28,479
Speaker 1: grow to the things that they're passionate about being able

1014
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,239
Speaker 1: to do it. I want to see families be able

1015
00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:34,000
Speaker 1: to spend special time together and be able to have

1016
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:36,280
Speaker 1: memories that will we had a pass on and remember

1017
00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:40,600
Speaker 1: for generations and where people can just take a break

1018
00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:43,000
Speaker 1: from all of the stresses and the things that you

1019
00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:45,600
Speaker 1: deal with on a day to day basis and just laugh.

1020
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:52,600
Speaker 1: That's an honor and a privilege. And I recognize that

1021
00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,640
Speaker 1: and try to make the most of every moment. But

1022
00:56:55,680 --> 00:57:03,040
Speaker 1: I'd be scared Rushan. You know something I tell people

1023
00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:06,759
Speaker 1: that I laugh because fear I wake up. You know,

1024
00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:08,480
Speaker 1: I never know what happens when I walk out of

1025
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:12,560
Speaker 1: the door. I'm confident. And then when you're confident, hopefully

1026
00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:14,800
Speaker 1: that pushes you past the fear. And then I always

1027
00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:18,120
Speaker 1: talk about people allow fear to stop them from making

1028
00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:23,160
Speaker 1: job changes, stand in relationships too long, or and that's

1029
00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:26,000
Speaker 1: that's a big deal because of the fact that the

1030
00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:29,919
Speaker 1: unknown is tied to fear, and if you don't walk

1031
00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:33,040
Speaker 1: through the unknown. That's why when I read your bio

1032
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:34,960
Speaker 1: and even when I talk to you now, I so

1033
00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:38,320
Speaker 1: admire you because of the fact that when people don't

1034
00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:41,160
Speaker 1: understand when you can take on iconic brands like the

1035
00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:44,200
Speaker 1: Hall and Global Trotters where you know, it's it's it's

1036
00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:46,600
Speaker 1: like it's like it's like it's like going in there

1037
00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:49,040
Speaker 1: in Kentucky Fried Chicken trying to change your chicken recipe.

1038
00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:53,440
Speaker 1: You know, people, she's talking about messing with the chickens.

1039
00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:56,560
Speaker 1: What's wrong with the chicken recipe? Well, we have to

1040
00:57:56,600 --> 00:57:58,880
Speaker 1: change the chicken recie. We won't mess with the fries. Okay,

1041
00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 1: that's all she's doing. The Hall of Girl, she's just

1042
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:06,080
Speaker 1: messing with the fries, the fries of the Hall of Globe,

1043
00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:08,440
Speaker 1: trying to brain And so when she messing with the

1044
00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:10,800
Speaker 1: fried that means she has to she's marketing and Brandon

1045
00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:13,760
Speaker 1: and and she's reimaging the tours and things like that.

1046
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,840
Speaker 1: And let's talk about that whole reimaging because people while

1047
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:18,960
Speaker 1: and there they are. They are jumped in conclusions like

1048
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:21,280
Speaker 1: you know the ball is gonna be white, you know,

1049
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:23,640
Speaker 1: and then you know all those different things. But you're

1050
00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:25,920
Speaker 1: not changing anything. We'll know you have changing the thing.

1051
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:29,160
Speaker 1: You just reimaged some things and then looked at it

1052
00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:32,560
Speaker 1: from a different perspective coming out of the COVID situation

1053
00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:37,000
Speaker 1: and going back into live audiences. Correct. That is absolutely right.

1054
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:40,280
Speaker 1: And something that you said, really, um, reminded me of

1055
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:44,439
Speaker 1: something brushining one of my kind of hashtags. I talked

1056
00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:47,120
Speaker 1: in hashtags often, and one of them is being trusting

1057
00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 1: it open and for the globe totters, I've kind of

1058
00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:56,240
Speaker 1: stepped in this role of being trusting to the path

1059
00:58:56,360 --> 00:59:02,040
Speaker 1: that's being set before me and being open to um

1060
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:05,400
Speaker 1: what is intended for this brand. So these players, Um,

1061
00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:10,600
Speaker 1: you're right, they're trusting me two provide them with a

1062
00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:15,120
Speaker 1: pathway to touch and reach people. Right, they give so

1063
00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:18,680
Speaker 1: much of themselves. I mean they're touring and they're playing games,

1064
00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:23,880
Speaker 1: two hundred plus games a year and then they sign

1065
00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:28,600
Speaker 1: every autograph. Now, they spend the box, they work on

1066
00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:33,000
