25 Secret Things You Didn’t Know About MEN WHO SPEAK

This week at the Urban Academics Roundtable, we are honoring Twenty-Five Men Who Speak; It’s Black King Joy, for sure!. The vast majority of men will tell you they know women speak more often and out loud more than men. Even one Chosen Visionary swears women have a certain gland somewhere between the mouth and ears (probably the throat too), causing women to talk to hear themselves talk. He says it’s science, but the jury is still out on that one.

Here, we are celebrating Twenty-Five Men Who Speak: It’s Black King Joy during this special occasion HOT-Segment – You don’t want to miss this. Every Thursday at 9:30 pm (EDT); A FREE invitation for you to join us, but you should Register Here.

This Reunion Crucial For Your Business. Here’s Why

Before we dive into the happenings for Season II of HOT-Seat at the Urban Academics Roundtable, let’s look a little closer at the definition or spirit of the word reunion …

  • an instance of two or more people coming together again after a period of separation.
  • a social gathering by members of a certain group of people who have not seen each other for some time
  • the act or process of being together again as a unified whole

The Roundtable Reunion Season II

Reunion at The Urban Academics Roundtable, Season II: White, Thomas, McFadden, ReddickPS, Gay, ReddickPM, Fagan, Moore, DavisA, Rutherford, and DavisM Inter-State Talk for Black, Brown, Poor, and Others Living The Inner-City Urban Experience

The Roundtable Season II is the completion of 24 consecutive Segments at the Urban Academics Roundtable, and without 12 (season I) + 12 (season II) we would not be able to celebrate the milestones associated with this wonderful content creation platform and each person in the HOT-Seat and around the table.

“We have been fed once again, and it was Ummm Ummm good. Now, go and share some of what you got from this table with others. Until next time”

Kaye Harvey, President & CEO, Alexis Hill Montesorri, Inc., and Roundtable Moderator

Why Reunion II is Crucial

What you may not have realized is Urban Academics is a content creation platform that will re-purpose every single roundtable discussion so that our people can get information the way they want it – Not the way we think.

The easiest way to create new fresh content – Different from the old, outdated, or re-constructed curations on the internet today. Our people not only get the news lately but sometimes it’s the wrong information from sources we have learned to appreciate instead of tolerating.

Crucial Reasons 1-7

  1. Urban Academics growing extremely fast (actual hits)
  2. Urban Academics Online has Authority
  3. Urban Academics Online is Indexed
  4. Urban Academics has consistently produced weekly content
  5. Urban Academics has strong backlinks
  6. Urban Academics subscribes to a collaborative philosophy
  7. Urban Academics Understands the POWER of Twelve

The easiest way to do it was the old-fashioned way of simply talking about everything – The good, bad, ugly, and downright nasty! That’s how you get it done with and out in the open, with others present, the family (village). During the last 24-weeks, you have played a major role in family conflict and discussions.

What’s really cool is the idea that has actually re-created the way content is created, but also how google LOVEs what we are doing here at Urban Academics – We are growing very fast as a platform, which means a few things:

Urban Academics Update (24-Weeks) + Two Reunion(s)

Urban Academics Online, the platform has been around for some time, but after expanding into the intellectual talk space it became obvious what to do with newly generated content. It was not, however, so easy to figure out how. We are rolling out a BETA on Urban Academics Membership Portal. Find out more about the once in a lifetime opportunity to partner with The Roundtable – For authors, entrepreneurs, and enterprise business and non-profits.

I’m techy by nature, I can read code and know old school HTML (the reason I can read code). But when it comes to marketing, someone else is in control and we must know what we are doing or we’re gonna get burned.

Because we are each in the spirit of collaboration, any content created here comes with unmeasurable power to change lives (around the world). Our hope is that world-wide content creators, including you, will lend their voice to these conversations. It’s no doubt a work in progress, but it’s time for next-level existence.

We now know for a fact how lucrative and valuable (worth lots of money) RAW, REAL, and RELEVANT content for black, brown, poor, and others living the inner-city urban experience can be. In no time flat, we’ve come up with a power-house plan for authors, entrepreneurs, and enterprising folks in business and innovation. Introducing Urban Academics Membership Portal.

Press Release for Anthony Gay @ “Hot-Seat!”

Parents are already exhausted, and while many welcome the sound of back to school, just so they can get a break from the summer has come to an abrupt end for most parents around the country. However, parent’s reality is that they are new teachers whether they are ready or not!

Step right up, no training necessary – All parents are now school teachers, but without the salary, experience, nor a say in the matter. Here’s a parent and a professional who says …
