@ElieNYC Starting my next read before going to sleep tonight. #eliemystal #reading #books
“Our Constitution is not good. It is a document designed to
create a society of enduring white male dominance, hastily edited in the margins to allow for what basic political rights
white men could be convinced to share. The Constitution is an imperfect work that urgently and consistently needs to be modified and
reimagined to make good on its unrealized promises of justice and equality for all.

How Can You Get Access to Capital?

Where 20 years ago, 70-90% of all initial public offerings were raising $50M or less, today only 30-40% of companies go public at that stage.
A major reason being, there is a lack of developed exchanges that are creating new listings of that size. This major change in our capital markets has left many companies without a transparent, safe marketplace to get liquidity and expand.
In our next webinar, we will be discussing this and what solution is coming for this very problem.
Dream Exchange

Dream Exchange is creating the first black-owned national stock exchange as well as the first ever venture stock exchange.

Chuavin’s knee remained on #georgefloyd ‘s neck 3 minutes after there was no pulse. This is murder. Protect and serve, where? 😡 #blm #whitesupremacy #neverforget #racist #derekchauvin #america
A medical expert in the physiology of breathing testified in the murder trial of Derek Chauvin that the way George Floyd was restrained — handcuffed behind his back, face-down on the ground, with a knee on his neck — prevented him from breathing properly.
Dr. Martin Tobin, called as an expert witness by the prosecution, said the cause of Floyd's death was hypoxia, or a low level of oxygen that led to asphyxia, or suffocation. The overall effect of the restraint was almost "as if a surgeon had gone in and removed the lung,"

No @senatortimscott your comments are diabolical, disgusting and disgraceful. You should know better as a Black man than to spew such trash. It’s not surprising. I am a constituent and I will be contacting your office. I’m a student of history and I’m hard pressed to find
Anywhere in American history where “woke supremacy” enslaved Africans in the Americas, committed Native American Genocide, Seceded from the Union to uphold white supremacy and slavery, committed domestic terrorism acts - lynchings, race massacres, church & house bombings, rapes
and I missed the history chapter where woke supremacists stormed the Capitol to overthrow the US government.
You sound like a fool who’s a tool of the White Supremacist power structure and status quo. You reek of opportunism and self loathing.

In March of 1857, the United States Supreme Court, led by Chief Justice Roger B. Taney, declared that all blacks -- slaves as well as free -- were not and could never become citizens of the United States. The court also declared the 1820 Missouri Compromise unconstitutional,
thus permiting slavery in all of the country's territories.

The case before the court was that of Dred Scott v. Sanford. Dred Scott, a slave who had lived in the free state of Illinois and the free territory of Wisconsin before moving back to the slave state of Missouri,
had appealed to the Supreme Court in hopes of being granted his freedom.

Taney -- a staunch supporter of slavery and intent on protecting southerners from northern aggression -- wrote in the Court's majority opinion that,

Congresswoman @ayannapressley does not mince words. She speaks truth to power. A white supremacist mob waving trump, maga, blue lives matter and confederate flags in the US Capitol were incited and encouraged by trump.
It was all based on a lie about a fraudulent election and a desire to invalidate millions of Black votes. There must be accountability for all who were responsible. The Impeachment will likely not result in a conviction.
This is due to the lack of principles and morality in the @GOP specifically the @SenateGOP . They are feckless and spineless. #neverforget #sedition #trumptreason #whitesupremacy #republicanparty There is no “turning the page” with out accountability.

Just look at the confederacy. trump and the Republican Party are a confederacy of: racists, whites supremacists, xenophobes, obstructionists, hypocrites, misogynists conspiracy theorists, greed, incompetence, lust for power and insurrectionists hell bent on
trying to overthrow an imperfect democracy.
Prosecute these confederates. #trumptreason #traitors #maga #thugs #idiots #criminals #republicans #antiamerican
