Description

Episode 193 continues as the second part of a two-part series of guidance that we should share with our girls and our adolescent women. This part addresses 'Speaking and Language' and 'Education and Career.'

In this installation I share ways that we can support our girls and adolescent women to be successful by enabling them to be effective communicators, understand how to manage the work environment and understand the connection between education and their future aspirations.

We certainly cannot exhaust the wisdom that we must share with our young women but we should exhaust ourselves in our efforts to enlighten them.

“You are too proud.You have your diploma and your education and you think that you should be white. You are too proud. The white man’s education has made you too proud, so proud until you hate yourself and your own kind. I say you need to be re-educated into the knowledge of yourself and your kind now. Learn something about your own black people.” Honorable Elijah Muhammad
