Clear Visions

Round 2 for the Neighbors and Groovers. In this episode, we're focusing on the gatekeepers and bridge builders. For me, I have moments where I don't want to admit that someone is simply gatekeeping a situation, a connection, and a new relationship forming. In this moment, we have to call the spade out. On the flip though, there are people who make sure the connections happen...and I want to make sure to point out what they ideally look like. It's easy to spot the bad (the gatekeeper) an...

Peace, Neighbors and Groovers. I'm here to present a special series of Clear Visions. If you've been following for a minute, you remember that I explained how I use this platform to experiment, create freely, and to inform the people of my thoughts and/or lessons I've come across.

No luck on buying a ticket…and to go further…no luck on my community getting me access to the event… …but let me see something of worth to...

Greetings. What's the (or your) thoughts on wasting time with people, things, etc., vs. learning the lessons that come with wasting the time?

While recording this, I was not Positive Pete and said...'I really wasted my time with [said person/event/etc]'. With that, I stand on this being cool to think. I don't hold any ...

Peace to you and yours. I’m here to share a lesson that I taught the students of my Intro to Mass Media class. This week, we’re learning the history of mass media. For me, learning the history of said person, event, culture, etc. is important to me, but while growing up, history (or social studies) was my least favorite subject. I use to always ask…”why am I’m learning about unrelated things??” It wasn’t until I took an African American History class in high school that made me enjoy le...
