DID YOU KNOW...The New York Times once rejected an opinion submission from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.?

Remember: an op-ed is one tool in the communications toolbox, but it's not the only way to get your message out. And fortunately, today, there are many ways - including your own channels - to share your perspective.

Join me LIVE NOW ON INSTAGRAM (https://lnkd.in/gNBQ6JVG) as we dive deep into a powerful discussion about Kendrick Lamar's stance on unity within the culture. We'll explore how Kendrick's perspective aligns with my C4 Matrix: -Communication: How do we clearly articulate our cultural values and goals to promote unity? -Connection: How do we find and bond with like-minded individuals to strengthen our communities? -Collaboration: How can we create dynamic partnerships to amplify our impact and foster unity? -Community: How do we continually build and sustain vibrant, united communities? By mastering these steps, we not only preserve our culture but also drive meaningful change and growth. Let's talk about how YOU can use these principles to foster unity and make a difference!

Acknowledge the expertise of the much smaller indies (excellent curation, unique physical spaces, fostering local communities of readers); 2. Honor the fact that they've achieved what you haven't been able to and you've learned from them; 3. Show them respect by not competing with them; and 4. Demonstrate care by using your greater resources to help them when needed.

Two sides of an issue can lead to one side.
