If we take a knee, they’re mad. If we speak up like I do, they’re mad. If we protest like Martin Luther King Jr. taught us to do, they’re mad. What is it that they expect us to do when police keep killing us?

@bj116 Given the depth and breath of the trauma around us, I'm rereading The Body Keeps The Score and have given copies to my adult children as well. My daughter (@I_LiveFANCY), got her copy yesterday for her birthday. #FamilyHealing

I pray that the whole world, especially #BlackTwitter will come through for these young ladies. #donate #blackgirls #mentoring

You guys rock! We've raised over $6,000 in 5 days to send #womenofcolor to the #InternationalSlumberParty!

We appreciate your support of #BlackGirls -- their brilliance and their purpose.

So what do we have planned?

@WiseAsOwls @RPowellDennis97 Pray for me :)

[Sharolyn Payton @MyCoachPayton]

@RPowellDennis97 Thank you for inviting me to be a part of the #TN97Business Chat. Take care!

[Sharolyn Payton @MyCoachPayton]

@RPowellDennis97 This foolery makes me tired in my soul. We all recognize that 1988-2020 is a looooooooong time for an organization to be ineffective it its role. #TN97Business

@CounselLawson I wish it we not so. But it's the truth!

[Sharolyn Payton @MyCoachPayton]

@CounselLawson @RPowellDennis97 THIS!!!

@RPowellDennis97 A#6 The next step would be to simply make a connection via our website at https://t.co/IbKFDKmnDq and then consider partnering with Payton Place as you preferred vendor for personal, professional, and organizational development. #21stCenturyLeadership #TN97Business

[Sharolyn Payton @MyCoachPayton]

@RPowellDennis97 Many of these organizations have been around since the 1980s and we are still at less than 2% for contracting. WHAT HAVE THEY BEEN DOING!?

[Sharolyn Payton @MyCoachPayton]

@RPowellDennis97 However, I am a part of a couple of national consulting organizations which actively engage and seek to provide access to opportunities for women and minority who serve in the nonprofit sector. One such organization is @nonprofitist #21stCenturyLeadership #TN97Business

@RPowellDennis97 My name is Sharolyn Payton. I'm the Lead Coach/Consultant at Payton Place, where we have been helping nonprofit organizations, community leaders, and MWBE's CLARIFY and more effectively DEMONSTRATE their vision/mission since 2013. #21stCenturyLeadership #TN97Business

[Sharolyn Payton @MyCoachPayton]

@RPowellDennis97 It still baffles my mind that we are still receiving less than 2% of contract revenue here in Memphis and have been for more than 50 years.

[Sharolyn Payton @MyCoachPayton]

@RPowellDennis97 A#4 AND, we know that EVERY business, not just MBW’s ability to SCALE rests squarely on its access to funding and technology. #21stCenturyLeadership #TN97Business

[Sharolyn Payton @MyCoachPayton]

@RPowellDennis97 A#4 Our lives AND our livelihood depend on it. The most profound and likely immediate impact would be GROWTH. #21stCenturyLeadership #TN97Business

[Sharolyn Payton @MyCoachPayton]

@RPowellDennis97 A#3 If some policy would simply allow small business to be vetting based on their performance rather than being required to go through some ridiculous certification processes that are not required for our White counterparts. #21stCenturyLeadership #TN97Business
