A Lil Positivity: African Billionaire Tony Elumelu Launches $100 Million Program To Help Black Businesses

Tony Elumelu Launches $100 Million Program To Help Black Businesses Tony Elumelu, an attributed philanthropist and African billionaire has just launched a program to help African American businesses under his Toney Elumelu Foundation according to Financial Juneteenth : In 2014, Elumelu, along with other prominent American and African business moguls, partnered to form a summit in Washington DC that consisted of more than 45 African and American business heads, along with 50 African business leaders. The common theme of the platform was to see to the improvement in the economic stance of Africans, as well as African-Americans, and to create advancement opportunities for all who interacted. The vision set forth by Tony Elumelu is one that he believes merges more than simple aid; it creates a solid partnership between Africa and the U.S. It’s the beginning of a business journey that takes a different, but more rewarding, path for all of those invested. The trip to Africa taken by President Obama was another key indicator that steps are being taken in the right directions to strengthen business ventures between Africa and America. These attempts coexist with The Tony Elumelu Foundation as it extends its principles for growth to businesses owned or started by women and minorities. The most significant move, by far, is the entrepreneurship program that The Tony Elumelu Foundation will spearhead. It is designed on a financial standing of $100,000,000 to be disbursed among entrepreneurs throughout the U.S and Africa. This newly formed relationship between Africa and the U.S is one that can create a positive mode of growth for African American entrepreneurs who stay the course and take the route the foundation has designed. Investing in Black entrepreneurs and businesses is a great way to see the community grow! Discuss. Continue reading →

Out Of Pocket: Officer Involved In Sandra Bland Case Tasers Black Texas Councilman

SMH… Texas Councilman Jonatan Miller Tasered A Texas councilman is making national headlines after he says he was unlawfully tasered outside his home. Jonathan Miller was arrested October 8 in Prairie View, Texas when officers stopped to question four men at his house in area where there was “drug activity.” After Miller says he stepped outside to defuse the situation, he was tasered by two officers–one of which is believed to have been involved in the arrest of Sandra Bland. Today.com reports: “I don’t feel like I did any of the things that I’m accused of,” councilman Jonathan Miller told NBC News. “I don’t feel like I should have been detained, or you know, arrested or anything.” Dramatic videos taken by one of Miller’s friends and the body camera worn by one of the police officers shows Miller, 26, being taken down by a Taser on Oct. 8. The incident involved a Prairie View officer with ties to Sandra Bland, who was found dead in her jail cell this summer. Miller insists he did nothing wrong, while police say he was Tasered for failing to comply with their orders. Police say they were on a routine patrol when they stopped at Miller’s house and approached four men for questioning in an area they say has often been found to be involved with drug activity. In the video, a male and female officer try to get him to put his hands behind his back and he refuses before being Tasered. “I knew the officer, (and) she knew me, so I figured if I let her know these are my guests, (it would) kind of lessen the tension,” Miller said. Miller has been charged with interfering with police and resisting arrest. The police are promising a full investigation. Wow! Even councilmen aren’t safe. What do YOU think about police harassing Jonathan Miller??/ Continue reading →

People Magazine reports: While Lamar Odom’s condition has been improving he still remains in ICU after waking up from his four-day coma on Friday, a source tells PEOPLE. “Lamar today again has had moments when he is awake and more responsive,” the source says. “He is still in the ICU, is receiving oxygen and sleeps a lot. He is not talking, but seems to understand when Khloé and the medical staff speak to him. He will have another head MRI in the next few days to check for any damage that could have been caused by the strokes. “Khloé still hasn’t left his side and looks very tired,” the source adds. “As soon as Lamar wakes up, she rushes over to hold his hand. She sleeps on a pullout bed next to Lamar.” And as Khloe continues to lay by his bedside, her Kardashian family members are staying close by as well. Even as memes circulate online claiming that Lamar would be distraught to see the reality TV clan by his side…   Kim Kardashian has shared an update with fans. According to Yeezy’s wife, she and her little siter Kendall were able to make the ailing athlete smile.   Wow!

The woman can’t be named for legal reasons and her site has since been pulled from the internet. ABC News Australia reports that during a 24-hour period around March 11, a mixture of yeast and fungus grew in one of the tubes that made up the daughter’s venous line, in a way that indicated contamination by urine. Police allegedly found syringes, urine samples and laxatives in the woman’s handbag and investigators believe they have medical evidence going back to 2008. Police will use this as evidence against the mother. During the period in which the mother documented her daughter’s hospital visits, the two gained recognition from several charities and even had large posters of the child lining the local airport.
