The people of Blacktopia voted Jaime Staine Miss Blacktopia.  She gets along well with others and is always so polite and supportive of her fellow Blacktopians.... not only do the people of Blacktopia support her in business but she also patronizes the other Blacktopian's businesses as well.  Although Jaime is "hungry" when it comes to business, she certainly brings more to the table than just her appetite, and with the skills, talents and knowledge she possesses.... having a pretty face isn't her only beautiful feature.

Thank you Jaime Staine for being apart of the future of black society.  Yes Yes!

"Black People: Pick A Side And Stick With It" (by Bigg Luc)

Proud Blacktopian Citizen Bigg Luc the King had some something to say about the reaction of our people about the news centered around Rachael Dolezal.  Here is what he had to say and feel free to voice your opinions as well.

 

Rachael Dolezal: Ok. This is my only post that I intent on speaking about it because in all honesty it's trivial. So here goes:

1. She infiltrated a race that thought they were invincible and no one could outsmart them on how black someone is or isn't.

2. She claimed the black race and embraced the life but still gets flack for wanting to identify with that race for whatever the reason.

3. Other historical figures such as Queen Jackson Haley haven't gotten half as much of this press although she was half white and half black. I believe the politically correct term is mulatto. Things that make you go Hmmmm

4. J. Edgar Hoover has origins of being part black but is rejected throughout history but black folks still claim that all life evolved from Africa. SMH

Do you see where i'm going with this? This bi-polar, selective inclusion isn't working too well for black people at all. And might I add, is not a good look for any race to be viewed especially one where this same race has been trying to break down stereotypes and blend in to other cultures.

Poem: Ravaging Peace (by Aliscia Melton/ Sunshine BlackRose)

Here is a little something for ‪#‎PoetryNightWednesday‬ here in Blacktopia

Ravaging Peace

Let me ravage your mind with my sensual words
Make you stand at attention just to hear the next line
Taking you to that paradise called Love
Where all your needs and wants are met
Bringing you to galaxies uncharted with just my pen
Engulfing you in a world wind of ecstasy
Forged by the erotic nature of my flow
Moving beyond the heavens to create new worlds
To heights unknown and depths not yet reached
Caressing your mind with words that transcends and defy time
My pen moving at speeds unknown
As I spit lines that consume you
Leaving you breathless and wanting more
My ink alone will leave you moist with anticipation
Sitting on edge waiting for the next stroke of my pen
Knowing what will come next
Will surely quench your hearts thirst
Relieve your body of that tension
And
Bring peace to your soul

6 Quick Tips to Get Started in Business (by Erin Brown)

Businesswoman Erin Brown (and newest citizen of 

Blacktopia) gives some quick advice for aspiring 

entrepreneurs.  Take heed to the advice she gives

in this article.  You can certainly apply the knowledge

she provides to the readers and other Blacktopians.



1. DO YOUR RESEARCH! That's the best advice that I could give anyone. You have to know the industry, product/services and the competition. Do a SWAT analysis to lay it all out for you. 


2. SURROUND YOURSELF WITH LIKE-MINDED PEOPLE. I'm a firm believer that your network determines your net-worth. 


3. BE FEARLESS. Fear is simply False Evidence Appearing Real. You can't let it stop your journey.  DON'T BE AFRAID TO FAIL. Failure is your friend. You can learn from it.  Nothing beats a failure, except for a try. 


4. CREATE A PLAN. If you don't plan, you are setting yourself up for failure. You need a good business plan and a marketing plan. 


5. EDUCATE YOURSELF. You can't rely on others to do the work for you, so you must educate yourself.


6. WORK SMARTER, NOT HARDER. Most likely, there are other people out there who have done what you are doing. If they are successful, duplicate the system they've already put into place. Don't recreate the wheel. You have to benchmark what they've done and learn from it.
