She's a Bee-Otch

The Mayo Clinic has described my life exactly as it has been on a decline since 1997. Here are my symptoms:


  • Persistent sadness or depression

  • Marked anxiety, feelings of being "keyed up" or "on edge"

  • Mood swings often marked by periods of teariness

  • Persistent or marked anger or irritability

  • Decreased interest in usual activities

Someone Sent This to Me | Its a Class Assignment

Leaders function in many different contexts, i.e., formal organizations, informal groups, learning teams, etc. As you have read and assessed your ethical perspectives what do you think are the primary characteristics of an ethical leader?

"The Black Community's Dirty Laundry"

We ain't got no dirty laundry. At least no more than the next culture. You know, I am so sick of people talking about Cosby and how he handled and is continuing to speak about poor lower class Black folk. Cosby is correct in what he’s saying. Yes, the first time Cosby openly discussed what he felt, maybe it wasn’t the right venue and maybe the timing wasn’t right, but it was the right thing to say. I grew up in what was considered a poor community. You wouldn’t know that by observing the way I roll now. Most houses were shotgun or unkept, dilapidated cars in the driveways, and most days, people hung out on their porches just looking out. On the 1st and the 15th you could tell that they had received their government checks. Food stamps, government peanut butter, government powdered milk, I’ve been there.
