Let Your Words Speak for You: Increasing Expert Credibility in Your Industry or Profession cond. Yes, we Black men and women have some collective concerns, a certain amount of shared pathos , arising from our shared painful past which we are daily changing to a triumphant future - but we are each something more fundamental than a cog in a Great Black Cause. I am, like you - just me.One of the quickest ways to increase credibility in your industry or profession is by writing about it. Yes, writing.Writing is inordinately undervalued by professionals in virtually every industry and profession. People who rely exclusively on the truism, "a picture is worth a thousand words," are missing out on vast amounts of business and credibility opportunities, because words are the things that really sell. W Let me just speak for myself.

It’s amazing how many people continue to entertain the notion that we Black Americans are all alike. Instead of believing what their eyes see, and what their total life experience clearly has taught them, many believe that we all think and behave the same. Whether this is a reflection of erroneous teaching passed down through generations, ignorance - or both - the phenomenon intrigues me.
So listen up... No, all of us don’t respond well to the accented greeting “What’s happenin’ brutha?” at the corner store – especially when we just heard you say “Hello, how are you today?” to the previous three non-Black customers. And no, we all don’t like chitlins. At least I don’t. I was a chitlin’ hater before I ever saw one. Check this out...Owing large sums on your credit cards and other bills is a very stressful situation. Every dime of your paycheck is allocated before you even cash it, you have collection agencies calling you both at home and at work, and you constantly have to worry about making ends meet. Worst of all, with the incredibly high interest rates you're paying.Under such an overwhelming condition, you may run out of mind and calmness and can't think of a s I was 3, growing up in the projects of Portsmouth, Ohio. I walked over to my Grandma’s building (kids could walk around the neighborhood back then...) and, when I stopped at her door, I smelled something funky. Yeah, I thought I had boo-booed in my pants, so I checked. When Grandma came to the door, I immediately said “Grandma I didn’t boo-boo!”, so I wouldn’t get a whuppin’. Instead, she looked at me kindly and said “Naw baby, it’s ok. That’s supper cooking.” And that was that. Chitlins and me could NEVER be friends. We Black folks are as different, within our race, as any other folk. We have our own individual opinions on every subject. We have different ways of doing things. We like different kinds of music. We don’t view politics the same. Me and politics? Thanks for asking! I am all messed up, and I hate it. I am neither Democratic nor Republican. On the one hand, I can’t be a straight-up Democrat. I believe abortion is the murder of an innocent child, and I cannot condone it, under most circumstances. I believe this nation will be severely judged by God for the millions of lives we have slaughtered in the name of convenience and choice. So the donkey platform is shaky. That’s my opinion. On the other hand, I certainly can’t be a card-carrying Republican, either. Take away affirmative action and that’ll level the playing field... please. Until the hearts of all men are pure, and true justice reigns (not happenin’ today!) we must maintain federal and state programs just to stay on the field.

Whatever that is may be a point of branding.Whatever is unique to your business may likely be a positive point of web branding. It may not be enough to simply try to be competitive on price. If your business is similar to dozens of other online businesses you need to discover what it is that makes your business unique.

Chitlins and me could NEVER be friends.Crimes committed by women differ from criminality done by men by the nature of a crime, and its’ consequences, as well as by methods, crime weapon, and choice of victim. It is hard to object that crimes committed by women have more emotional characteristic then those committed by men.Women are far less likely than men to commit crime and this pattern seems to hold true all over the world. Only 19% of known offenders are women. Neverthe We Black folks are as different, within our race, as any other folk. We have our own individual opinions on every subject.
