Fifty-seven years ago--August 28, 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. transfixed those gathered near the reflecting pool on the national Mall ...for the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. “I have a dream,” he said, and described it, including “one day right there in Alabama little Black boys and Black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers. I have a dream today!”

That was a year and a week after an 11-year-old Black boy and about 30 of his friends brought their dream to a swimming pool in South Baltimore. The late Congressman Elijah Cummings told a Stoop Story about it in 2010.

Theme for 2020:Beyond 20/20 Spiritual Vision

August's Theme and Affirmation:

I Clearly See My Spiritual Growth in Action

This month’s Recommended Reading:
Girl, Stop Apologizing
  by Rachel Hollis
"I believe we can change the world.
But first, we've got to stop living in fear of being judged for who we are."

Rachel Hollis has seen it too often: women not living into their full potential. They feel a tugging on their hearts for something more, but they're afraid of embarrassment, of falling short of perfection, of not being enough.

In Girls, Stop Apologizing, #1 New York Times bestselling author and founder of a multimillion-dollar media company, Rachel Hollis sounds a wake-up call. She knows that many women have been taught to define themselves in light of other people—whether as wife, mother, daughter, or employee—instead of learning how to to own who they are and what they want. With a challenge to women everywhere to stop talking themselves out of their dreams, Hollis identifies the excuses to let go of, the behaviors to adopt, and the skills to acquire on the path to growth, confidence and believing in yourself.

I the second segment we have the continued discussion on COVID-19 and the economy.

Saafir Rabb is an up and coming star in the Democratic Party and he faces a uphill battle to win the seat vacated by the death of Congressional Icon Elijah Cummings. There are some very high profile names vying for a chance to represent the 7th District of Maryland, including Cumming widow Maya Rockeymoore Cummings and Kweisi Mfume but don’t count Rabb out just yet.

He is a fighter and has strong roots in the community where he is a business strategist, community developer, and advocate for cultural competence. Born in Baltimore City and growing up between Baltimore and Howard County, he has spent his life working behind the scenes in the communities of Maryland’s 7th district, promoting social enterprise, expanding addictions recovery efforts, building low to moderate income housing, and creating jobs for residents. Saafir went on to build a business career with global philanthropic reach.
Throughout this career, he has remained committed to changing the circumstances of District 7 for the better. Saafir is proud of his Maryland heritage and is dedicated to improving the apparatus through which communities connect with their representatives.
