Tri County Area Federal Credit Union’s Post

Though Juneteenth celebrates Black liberation in America, whatever freedoms we enjoy are never absolute and can cherry picked to be almost arbitrary. Remember the names of White violence that never cease to target Black folk in America. A SIDE NOTE: When I just typed/Swyped the word, "JUNETEENTH," on my phone, my Samsung/Android phone did not see it as a valid word. After nearly 200 years of Juneteenth being celebrated by Black folk, my Samsung Galaxy 22 phone -- a phone made by a South Korean company in a land of predominantly non-Black people of color and a phone bpowered by a U.S. based operating system created by Google, a White dominated corporation -- did not think to include the word "Juneteenth" (now a major federal holiday in its phone. That kind of disappearance from history is why Black folk created touchstones like Black History Month and holidays long ignored by whites like Juneteenth. Our freedoms are relative to ones White Christians enjoy in America that we don't. Like the expectation one might hold to not be slaughtered in a Black Church in a nation whose Supreme Court just gave the right to all people -- but mostly Whites in practical terms -- to by a bump stock that can turn their single trigger rifles into a massacre machine and efficiently murder Church going Black folk with cruel, inhumane, race-based hatred. Welcome to the reality that is White vs. Black America. Rest in peace to these seven souls. Know their names. Never disappear them from history.

As America celebrates Juneteenth today it is an opportunity to reflect and plan on the ongoing work that needs to be done to eradicate poverty which by the way affects more whites than Blacks in America, reparations, and George Floyd Police reform. As AI and technology continue to strip away the workforce, income supplements for the poor will be needed to help people transition to a better space and grow the economy. This is a better investment than the billions of dollars into the military industrial complex creating havoc around the world. This is also an opportunity to remember and fight for the victims of oppression to make our society a better place. Are you part of the problem or part of the solution?

Wow Black History Month and Reggae Month in one - cultural and history overload! Many people ask why we have to celebrate black history. Quick answer - because no one else is and everyone needs to have their story told. It's the same thing with reggae. I come from a small nation that punches way above its weight and a lot of our punch comes from our music. This month I want to stretch my thinking and learn some lessons from popular reggae songs and some history. I am not sure that I have a whole month in me but let's see how far we go....... Day One! No Woman nuh Cry by Reggae Legend the late Robert Nesta Marley. At long last we are paying attention to mental wellness. According to the National Library of Medicine "It is increasingly being recognized that the mental health of employees is a crucial determinant in their overall health and that poor mental health and stressors at the workplace can be a contributory factor to a range of physical illnesses like hypertension, diabetes and cardiovascular conditions, amongst others. In addition, poor mental health can also lead to burn-out amongst employees, seriously affecting their ability to contribute meaningfully in both their personal and professional lives". So how is mental wellness at your workplace? Are the women (and men) crying out for help? Do you have facilities in place to support them? Do they know about these resources? Can they use them without being shamed? Do your leaders know how to recognise when people are crying out for help? Where do you score on this list and what do you need to do?
