Essential Talents Summer Camp 2027 ...for Adults

  Essential Talents Summer Camp 2027… 12 Saturdays - for Adults - Virtual - June 3rd  - August 28, 2027. 11:00 am - 12:30 pm EST  For generations, Americans have been taught to measure security almost exclusively through money, income, and material wealth. Yet history repeatedly reminds us that financial systems are fragile. In moments like 9/11, the 2008 recession, and other economic shocks, fortunes evaporated almost overnight. Retirement accounts collapsed. Businesses disappeared. Careers ended. Some people lost not only their wealth, but also their hope. This reality forces us to confront an uncomfortable truth: Money is valuable — but it is not the highest form of security. What if the most valuable people in the next economy are not the richest… but the most useful? In a fragile economy, people chase money. In a disrupted economy, people chase usefulness. That’s why WePrepare.Us, in association with the  Preparedness AD Council are developing an entirely differ...

R.A.W.

Image
As an American citizen, I have become increasingly RAW since the last general election. Fed up! Radical. Agitated. I've been r eady to get into "good trouble", as Congressman Lewis put it, to address the unpreparedMESS that has become America. Most hardworking Americans have better solutions than the current Washington administration! Do you agree? We can stay agitated or get activated!💪🏾💪🏾 As Founder of the Perennial U-Verse (WePrepare.Us | Century 5-10-10-75) I have a journalistic opportunity for those interested and like-minded. I will be publishing a new digital monthly called R.A.W. - Radical. Activist. Wellthy. The content is raw, no sugarcoating, no accommodation for "snowflake" tendencies, solution driven. RAW, yet without vulgarity. The truth doesn't need profanity! America is at a turning point in history where activism is not optional. We are either people of faith inaction or faith in action. The "United" States is barely a...

A Shut-Down Strikes Again... R U "Non Essential Personnel"?

  THE "ESSENTIAL PERSONNEL" PREPAREDNESS GUIDE How to Prepare Financially, Strategically, and Tactically Before the Next Shutdown by Pamela Kelly Millions of Americans are living financially, strategically, and tactically unprepared. This reality is validated by sobering statistics showing that nearly 67% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck — including approximately 40% of six-figure earners. Many people assume they are safe because life appears stable today. But stability can disappear overnight. COVID proved that. During the pandemic, a critical divide emerged between those classified as “essential personnel” and those who were not. Entire industries were halted. Jobs vanished. Supply chains failed. Families found themselves scrambling for food, cash, medicine, communication, and certainty. I was fortunate. I was classified as essential utility personnel and continued working during the shutdown. Had I not been considered essential, the financial consequences for...

White Elephant

  By Pamela Kelly ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In recent months there have been many conversations in the African American social media community about re-building Black Wall Street, both virtually and brick and mortar, as it existed in Greenwood, Hayti, and so many Black communities in the 1880's through the 1950's.  It was apparent then, that you can't have a "Black Wall St." without the presence of a Black Banking infrastructure.  Those born in the 70's and beyond have no recollection or awareness of the origin of Black Banks, as a necessary strategy in response to segregation and discrimination. This financial activism thrived through the Jim. Crow era, only to be curtailed in the 60's, after Eurocentric owned banks opened their doors to African American account holders.  That lack of cultural memory becomes problematic of every conversation about re- creating "Black Wall Street."  ...

Reclaiming the Original Assets That Sustained Us...

Yet history repeatedly reminds us that financial systems are fragile. In moments like 9/11, the 2008 recession, and other economic shocks, fortunes evaporated almost overnight. Retirement accounts collapsed. Businesses disappeared. Careers ended. Some people lost not only their wealth, but also their hope. This reality forces us to confront an uncomfortable truth: Money is valuable — but it is not the highest form of security. There are intangible assets that cannot be seized by inflation, market crashes, layoffs, or bank failures: Faith — the spiritual strength to endure uncertainty Preparedness — the discipline to anticipate adversity and act before crisis arrives Trust — the social glue that enables families and communities to survive together These three forces formed the original survival infrastructure of African Americans l...
