Today is Memorial Day, where we remember and honor our fallen soldiers. Do you know about the long history of Native Americans serving in the military? Take a look at the article "Reflections on Native Americans and Memorial Day" from Native News Online, written by by Levi Rickert: https://rb.gy/5n6a98 "Throughout American history, American Indians and Alaska Natives have proudly served and died for the United States of America. According to the Oxford Companion to American Military History, American Indians and Alaska Natives have the highest record of military service per capita compared to any other racial/ethnic group in the United States. Remarkably, even before American Indians became citizens of the United States in 1924, during World War I (July 28, 1914 – November 11, 1918), some 12,500 American Indians served in the armed forces. They fought for freedom when they weren’t even citizens of this country. Almost two-thirds of American Indians who served did so in the infantry, where they won widespread praise for bravery and achievement. Almost 5% of American Indian combat soldiers lost their lives, compared to 1% of American forces overall."

Important reminder for the upcoming holiday... 👉Memorial Day (last Monday of May) is a day for remembering and honoring military personnel who died during service to their country. 👉Veterans Day (November 11th) is the day set aside to thank and honor all who served honorably in the military; past and present, living and deceased. Note the difference and plan your social media posts appropriately. As GI Joe would say, "Now you know, and knowing is half the battle." 💯 Hot Take🔥 It's really not appropriate to say "Happy" Memorial Day. When you think about the true meaning of the day, it's more of a solemn note. #UnpopularOpinion . . . #SocialMedia #SocialMediaMarketing #SocialMediaStrategy #SocialMediaManager #SmallBusinessOwner #DigitalMarketing #digitalmarketing #socialmediaguru #smallbusinesssupport #MemorialDay #VeteransDay #Philadelphia #Marketing #SocialMediaExpert #SocialMediaStrategist #BucksCountyPA #BucksCountyBusiness #DoylestownPA #WarringtonPA #ChalfontPA #NewtownPA #MontcoPA #MakeItMontco #HatboroPA #HorshamPA #PlymouthMeeting #AdmasCountyPA #FrederickMD #SocialMediaHelp

🇺🇸 9/11 We Will Never Forget... 🇺🇸 I recall September 11th, 2001 as I watched the events unfold on one of those morning news shows in disbelief. I remember thinking, "People should move; that building is going to fall," just moments before it tragically did. I remember viewing the New York City broadcasts of people covered in dust and feeling helpless. I tried calling my family in New York, only to get a busy signal. Reflecting on those moments is a humbling, one that helps me connect with others on a deeply personal level, both in my personal and professional life. It reminds me that life, as Langston Hughes beautifully wrote it, "ain't be no crystal stair" for anyone. We all face challenges, some more daunting than others, but it's in these moments of adversity that we find the strength to rise. In every tragedy, there is an opportunity to overcome, to rebuild, and to become better than before. The resilience of the human spirit shines through, as we rebuild not only our lives but also our communities. The events of 9/11 serve as a stark reminder that in the face of adversity, we can unite and grow stronger together. Today, as we remember 9/11, I am committed to building stronger communities. In my journey, I strive to be present, to listen, and to guide others who seek real estate and veteran entrepreneurial services. It's through these actions that we can honor the memory of those we lost on that day and continue to build a better tomorrow for all.  🇺🇸 #NeverForget #September11 #StrongerTogether #CommunityBuilding
