Over a year ago I found myself changing careers, going from non profit management to education and it has most definitely opened my eyes to the politics that goes on behind the scenes so to speak. Now, my undergrad degree was in political science, so I have a tendency to look at the world through …
I've been thinking about the effects of technology and this social media phenomenon that has got too many of us caught up.

Encouragement: the action of giving someone support, confidence, or hope. Positivity:Â having a good, affirmative, or constructive quality or attribute.

Is it just me, or are you feeling like the world is going crazy right about now!? I couldn't believe it when I read that the police officer, Jeronimo Yanez who murdered Philando Castile was acquitted of all charges. Smh. What kind of society allows this to happen?
