On Tuesday the power-house that is Flavilla Fongang launched what is shaping up to be a project profoundly useful for the Black community and professionals at large. I've seen first hand the work and time she has personally invested here, so it's only right I share this with my Network. In Flavilla's own words... "BLACK RISE is here to bridge the opportunity gap for black talent in business. Black talent in business faces significant barriers to growth due to the absence of a robust ecosystem that facilitates connections, the sharing of knowledge and opportunities. This economic loss is estimated at $1.6 trillion in the US and 300 billion in the UK each year. So we built an AI powered business platform to help them reach their full potential by harnessing the power of the Black talent network." The total addressable market is $25 billion based of 650k B2B users and 71 million Black professionals outside of Africa." To follow the journey, give BLACK RISE and Flavilla Fongang a follow! 😉

🌟 Celebrating Black History Month! 🌟 At CE International, we honor the legacy and contributions of Black individuals worldwide - in the past, present, and future. This #BlackHistoryMonth, we're reminded of the profound and important impact Black leaders, thinkers, and educators have had and continue to have on shaping the world, especially in the area of #education. The work of earlier Black trailblazers such as Mary McLeod Bethune and Fanny Jackson Coppin created educational opportunities for Black children in the U.S. Later, brave Black children such as Ruby Bridges walked into newly desegregated schools to pursue the education they deserved. Worldwide, countless Black leaders have worked to build quality educational opportunities for children and youth in their communities, and today, Black education leaders globally advocate, teach, and innovate to build better #education systems, resources, and opportunities for all. As we commemorate Black History Month, we celebrate these achievements and recommit ourselves to creating inclusive educational environments worldwide so that all children can thrive.

Around the circle are decorative orange and yellow dots and color splashes of orange, yellow, and green.

: Happy Black History Month! We're celebrating Black Technologists whose innovations have made our world better. Our third technologist is Dr. Mark Dean. We can write many things about Dr. Dean's technological contributions, but we have added a picture below. #digitalequity #digitalliteracymatters #digitalequitychampion #educationequity #educationlaw #digitalinclusion #techforgood #techinnovation #blacktechhistory

Celebrating Black History Month To all the phenomenal black business owners, entrepreneurs, and creatives who grace our communities with their talent and tenacity: This month, as we honor the legacy and achievements of black individuals throughout history, let's also turn a reflective eye towards our own collective journey. The road to success is paved with the support and unity we offer each other. #growwithcarl Remember, my progress is not your regress. We must dismantle the myths that have been instilled in us—a mentality that has been a tool of oppression for far too long. We have been taught to see each other as competition rather than allies, influenced by the age-old strategy of divide and conquer. But history has shown us that we are strongest when we stand together. Let's reject the "one pie theory," which falsely claims that opportunity is scarce and that one person's gain is another's loss. There is not just one pie, my friends, but an abundance of pies, enough to share and multiply. As we forge ahead, let's commit to celebrating each other's wins and providing a platform for growth. Let's network, collaborate, and invest in one another. Every retweet, every referral, every word of encouragement builds a community that thrives together. This Black History Month, let's pledge to support and uplift each other, not just in words but in action. Together, we can break barriers, build empires, and inspire the next generation of black excellence. #BlackHistoryMonth #SupportBlackBusiness #Unity #CommunityGrowth #BlackExcellence #TogetherWeRise #growwithcarl #WeGrowTogether
