NABJ Coverage and Being of Service

August 09, 2025 • Mr. Al Pete • Season 7 • Episode 9

It's been a week, Neighbors. Work through me, Lord. Thank goodness that I'm around a group of people that love the same thing I love: media and the communication field. It's been helping.

In this episode, I give a rundown of what has occurred at the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) 50th convention. I was there reppin' the Northeast chapter, as well as the NABJ Entrepreneurship Task Force. I had the opportunity to speak, moderate, conduct a meeting (all with the help of Shernay Williams, chair of the Task Force and our mentor, Brett Chambers).

**a moment happened after this recording and it was excellent. I'll speak on it on the next go 'round**

I also speak about how the city of Cleveland was welcoming to the organization hosting their convention there. They're screaming for more and I'm with giving it to the people! With that, most folks wasn't aware of NABJ's existence, so I spend time speaking about the importance of Black media. Last moves was spent on being a service to the underserved. It was a discussion that was touched on during a session. This thinking is important when creating a brand and it's a great way of living.

This show is dedicated to my stepfather Griffin Young, Jr. I dislike 'step' in this case because he taught me everything. Rest in Power and you're truly missed. Enjoy, everyone.
