As you can tell in the majority of my latest postings; I have been trying to drop knowledge, bring awareness to African-American excellence, and just being all-around useful in my articles. Anyway, as I was on Twitter; one of the groups I follow (Revolution of Hope) referred me to a Young Brother that is without a doubt doing HIS THING. The Young Brother is a promising and outstanding Young Entrepreneur. Brother Toni Oloko has started a Tech Company at the age of 18. So far, Mr. Oloko has been featured in numerous Tech and Media Outlets. His company is now in the Mass Challenge, which is the largest-ever startup accelerator and competition that support early staged entrepreneurs. Now as Mr. Oloko continues to succeed to the tech world, he has launched a company that gives the word Practice (did you say PRACTICE- Allen Iverson voice). This is a new and 21st Century practice approach. The app is called PracticeGigs.




A startup based out of Massachusetts, the app helps you become a better Tennis Player by scheduling practice sessions with other Tennis Players in the area (free for players on your skill level and a fee for advance "practice" players). Mr. Oloko is passionate and knows a lot about Tennis (Oloko is a previously nationally-ranked tennis player top 120 in the country).


This is an amazing startup and it has already seen good success. This app is diverse and cool. It was also created by a Young Brother.




In closing, PracticeGig is great for those who love the game of Tennis and who want to get better. Practice only make perfect and Mr. Oloko is making great strides at making his company a "hit."


Mr. Oloko talks about the future of the company in a interview done.




“Our goal is to be in 10 different activities by the end of the year,” says Oloko. “Hundreds of people have reached out to us to expand into music, chess and even video games in the near future.”
The app is currently available for practice sessions in the Greater Boston and Eastern Massachusetts region, says Oloko. It is available only on iOS but, “Android is launching soon, just a couple of months away,” says Oloko.

RIP Muhammad Ali (The Greatest)

As you have heard the sad news by now, the great Muhammad Ali has passed on. He was laid to rest yesterday. When I say passed on, he has moved on to another journey. To another place to inspire, love, encourage, and communicate without bounds or limits. Mr. Ali is free yet again. I don't have to say what Mr. Ali meant to me. Just from past articles, tweets, and videos, you guys already know what he meant to me. He was a inspiration, hero, mentor, and someone to look up to and listen; learning and hanging on to has every word. Even if those words were 50 years old, they still hold relevance to this very day. I am keeping this post short, because no true words can describe what he meant to me, to all of us. However, I will end this post like this. Heroes are remembered, but legends never die. Therefore, he was the greatest legend ALL-TIME. And, he will live on as long as WE as a PEOPLE are still ALIVE!!!!! Rest Easy Champ!!!!!!!

RIP Mr. Dick Gregory

Mr. Dick Gregory was much more than a comedian. To simply say he was a comedian would almost water-down his greatness. The greatness in which he used a comedic style to educate those of various generations and philosophies. Mr. Dick Gregory was a man of intelligence, sophistication, and humor. Mr. Gregory was a truth seeker and one whom understood that a man must always investigate the conspiracy as well as facts written in the open to truly get a possible understanding of this cryptic world. Baba Gregory understood the importance of health and taking care of one's body. He understand the importance of a healthy spiritual life, and having a true connection with the one true universal GOD. And, the importance of being aware of our ancestors whom came before we all did. Furthermore, Mr. Gregory understood the importance of mental awareness, and the idea to continue to read and learn throughout the journey of life. Mr. Gregory activism and platform is beyond great, and very ...

                                                          "#TheFlagMustGo" Growing up, I have seen the Confederate flag so many times I could not count. As, a Young age I knew the Flag was wrong. Then, as I got older I was about to study the origins as well as the very people who created, represented, and coveted the flag; I truly had my answer: The Flag Must Go. Before, I give my opinion; I am going to give y'all unmistakable and unarguable facts. In 1861, politician William Porcher Miles designed the flag. As I studied the very man who created the "confederacy flag." I wanted to understand his doctrine and beliefs. I wanted to see what he wanted to create, pass-down, and strength who's cau...
