#OnThisDay in 1865, General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, TX to read Order No. 3, which affirmed the end of slavery in the states of the former Confederacy. This momentous occasion has been celebrated as #Juneteenth — a combination of “June” & “19th” — for over 150 years.

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

John Calipari was asked, "What is your coaching philosophy in its simplest terms?"

The answer was TWO principles about people.

John may now be the head coach at Arkansas, but his philosophy hasn't changed in over 35 years since coaching at UMass.

He said, "If you care about your people, you always have a job. If they know you're about them, and you truly care and are about their growth, you always have a job."

His first principle is making sure that people know you care.
• It means investing the time.
• It means building the relationships.
• It means working to grow and develop people.

Then he said, "The best piece of advice I had was in 1989 by a guy named Pat Nardelli, a supporter of our high school basketball team. When I got the UMass job, he told me, 'Remember this, Cal: you can have a bad deal with good people because stuff happens, but you can never have a good deal with bad people. It doesn't work.'"

His second principle is working with great people.
It means surround yourself with the right people.
• Ask if they are good people with good hearts?
• Ask if they bring energy or take energy?
• Ask if they are good teammates?

The essence of his philosophy is pretty simple: care about your people and choose to work with good individuals.

"Institutions serve people, not the other way around.  So as a servant-leader, I measure my success by the success of those whom I’m serving." - John Calipari

GET THE RIGHT GUYS ON THE BUS!

[The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center @TheKingCenter]

REMEMBERING PRESIDENT JIMMY CARTER

The King Center joins the world in remembering and celebrating the life and legacy of the Honorable President Jimmy Carter. President Carter was a civil and human rights giant, American patriot, and leader. He was the Governor of the great state of Georgia and served as the 39th President of the United States. During his administration, he took pride in not having to “…launch a missile, fire a bullet, or drop a bomb on anybody…”—a testament to his dedication to peace. We are grateful for the 100 years President Carter was on this Earth and are continually humbled and empowered by his timely contributions to the Martin Luther King Jr. Historical District, to racial equity, civil and human rights as well as his efforts to transform unjust systems. If we had 10 more Jimmy Carters, maybe our world would be a different place today.

We will continue to keep his family in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

#JimmyCarter #RestWell
