Mompreneur Mizell Mais Creates VanishClear Sulfur Cream To Solve Spotty Fungal Skin Infection Problems

Nationwide -- Mizell Mais is an African American mother of three and an entrepreneur from Apopka, Florida. In her early thirties, she developed a spotty rash that covered more than 40% of her body, including her face. Being dark-skinned, the rash was much lighter than her natural complexion, and the itchy spots were flaky and dry. The rash is called Tinea Versicolor. It's caused by an overgrowth of fungus that naturally occurs on human skin, and is most prevalent in humid or tropical climates.

"I was embarrassed to go anywhere, so I had to really pack on the makeup and powder before I left the house," Mizell stated in an interview. "Doctors gave me a variety of lotions, soaps, powders, and salves, but there was very little results. It wasn't until I started reading everything and doing my own research, and through trial and error, I developed VanishClear Sulfur Cream in my kitchen. I saw a visible difference in four days, and the rash was completely gone in nine days. I didn't have any discoloration or scarring or anything."

ONLINE LANGUAGE PLATFORM, SWAHILI PRIME, SEEKS TO PREPARE AFRICAN AMERICANS FOR OPPORTUNITIES IN AFRICA

Nationwide -- In recent years, Swahili has emerged as a leading language that people should take note of. With an estimated 150 million speakers worldwide, it is the official language of Tanzania, Kenya, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, is widely spoken in Uganda and more narrowly spoken in Burundi, Rwanda, North Zambia, Mozambique, and Malawi.

Several international media outlets like BBC and The Voice of America offer programming in Swahili. In the African Union, Swahili is one of the working languages. In 2019, the Southern African Development Community adopted Kiswahili as its fourth official language. At the beginning of 2020, South Africa legalized Swahili's teaching in South African schools as an optional subject with Namibia to follow suit in 2021.

Shili Joseph Somi, a Tanzanian native, who has been in the U.S. for several years, has watched Swahili's explosive growth and evolution into a dominant language. While people globally have caught hold of the opportunities in learning Swahili, Somi believes that the African American demographic has mainly been left out of the conversations concerning the possibilities.

AUTHOR AND IMAGE ACTIVIST, PATRICE MCLAURIN, WORKS TO DISMANTLE RACIST BIASES AGAINST BLACK CHILDREN ONE BOOK AT A TIME

Nationwide  At a time when the state of the world is extremely uncertain and fragile, Patrice McLaurin is providing a silver lining by dismantling racist biases against Black children, with a current emphasis on Black boys. Owner of Khemrah Publishing, a boutique publishing house located in Buford, Georgia, McLaurin uses this platform to serve as an author and image activist. Her literary works are cultivating the brilliance of Black children, one book at a time.

According to McLaurin, some of the most important work that needs to be done in the Black Community is the shifting of racist and biased propaganda against Black people. “Unfortunately,” states McLaurin, “any disparaging caricature that can be placed upon a person has been used as an identifying persona against Black folk.”

Part of McLaurin’s cause as an image activist is to dispel these effigies by reinforcing positive imagery. After the violent deaths of Trayvon Martin, Jordan Davis, Michael Brown, and Tamir Rice, McLaurin’s passion was amplified and it birthed literary works that would give Black children and their counterparts, an opportunity to see the value in their existence. “Oftentimes, a book is a child’s first introduction to an outside world,” states McLaurin, “so it is important that their books humanize all of those who exist in it.”

Why Do White People Hate Us So Much? They Are Still Angry About The Pharaohs And The Moors! By: Legrand H. Clegg II
Over a year ago, I wrote an article claiming that one of the driving forces behind White racism and  animosity toward Black people is that of retaliation. In summary, on a deep, subconscious level the white collective has inherited from its ancient and medieval ancestors an entrenched resentment of  Black people that was originally caused by Black ostracism, domination and enslavement of primitive whites when Africans ruled the world.

In light of the recent killings of George Floyd, Amaud Arbery  and Breona Taylor, and the uprisings that have followed, I feel compelled to revisit and elaborate on  my theory of global White resentment and retribution toward people of African descent.  The latest FBI crime statistics reveal that African Americans remain the chief victims of hate crimes in  the United States.

School segregation is as pervasive as ever. Republican legislators are suppressing  Black votes and gerrymandering local and statewide districts. Black people still suffer the highest  unemployment rates and have the lowest net worth in the nation.

BLACK WOMAN-OWNED COMPANY CREATES THE FIRST PAJAMAS LINE FEATURING CHILDREN OF COLOR


Nationwide Building self-esteem through positive representation is an important part of raising healthy children. Simone Edmonson established Dreams and Jammies LLC, an Atlanta-based company, to play a key role in transforming how children of color see themselves uniquely portrayed in their sleepwear as they drift off into their heavenly dreams.

Company founder Simone Edmonson states, “I wanted children of color to know that they’re valued and their faces matter. On average, children are in their PJ’s nine-plus hours per day. So, I thought it would be inspirational for them to show their individuality by selecting designs, which aligns with the child’s inner spirit. Parents could use Dreams and Jammies as a platform to launch their child’s daily affirmation of self-worth.”

The greatest impact the launch has made in the Black community was beautifully stated by buyer Denise Johnson of Baltimore Maryland, “When I saw those beautiful black girls wearing Dreams and Jammies on my Instagram feed, I burst into tears. I initially did not know why I had this visceral reaction. Then it dawned on me that in the fifty-five years of my life, I have never seen anything like this so I purchased a pair for my grandchildren and great-nieces.”
