I miss this Howard University

I always believed in decolonizing wealth. I’m starting a crowdfunding campaign for my community of day ones. If you’ve been down a/ co:census since ‘18 and ‘19 I’d love for you to join as an investor. Drop me a ❤️ so you can get the memo come 11/1.

Cleveland couldn’t wait. Thank you for choosing me to be your next mayor! Tonight we celebrate, tomorrow we get to work. Join us at teambibb.com 📸: Ideastream News

Proud to have vision and execution like this in #Michigan

The Infrastructure Act will provide Michigan with a once-in-a-generation opportunity to close the digital divide. This can't be done without a state broadband office. The Michigan High-Speed Internet Office needs to be staffed.

If Nelly tells you "it's getting hot in here", it's not your job as a journalist to take off all your clothes, it's your job as a journalist to look out the window and find out if it's true

Thankful to be present for a great conference by Merit Network featuring Susan Crawford what a treat! Grateful to be in the presence of dynamic leaders committed to fighting the fights that matter.

So proud and honored to be an Uncle once more! Congratulations Stuart C Edmonds

On stage at Pew broadband event in Cleveland, Alan Davidson again says they are going to connect everyone. Would be remarkable with practically nothing focused on urban needs and less than half of expected costs to connect Indian Country available to Tribes.

“That traditional model only serves you well if you're in the maybe 50 to 100 metropolitan areas across the country,” – Francella Ochillo on open access internet networks

The “promises” to deploy citywide #fiber with public funding from internet providers who knowingly #redlined communities needs to be challenged. Thankful to be hosting this conversation with ConnectYourCommunity
