In our last two blogs, we referenced Dr. Claude Anderson’s book Powernomics, a book that forces Black America to confront a hard truth: what we are facing today is not accidental. It is not bad luck.

Teaching our Kids the Power of AI…..
Some people believe that using artificial intelligence (AI) is cheating. They think it takes away from learning or doing things “the hard way.” But in reality, AI is just another step forward in human progress — a tool that helps us work smarter, not lazier.
