Why We Celebrate Men of Excellence Why We Celebrate Men of Excellence Home News City.Life.Style. Roots Faith Money Exclusive Series Events Classifieds About Chronicle Community Home / Why We Celebrate Men of Excellence Why We Celebrate Men of Excellence Hiram Jackson July 31, 2019 Hiram E. Jackson, Publisher, Michigan Chronicle Each year, the Michigan Chronicle takes great pride in recognizing African American men in our community who inspire others through excellence, vision, leadership, exceptional achievements, and a vast commitment to empower in a multiplicity of ways. We are proud of the achievements of African American men in Detroit and beyond who are doing many wonderful things across broad spectrums of society. Yet, African American men are often maligned by mainstream media outlets and many sectors of other races and nationalities. These outlets and sectors far too often come to conclusions about black men that are not accurate, often painting negative images and writing false narratives of black people in general, and black men in particular. Such flawed findings often conclude that black men are associated with crime, unemployment, and live in poverty. Nothing could be further from the truth. The truth is that most black men will not be incarcerated, are not unemployed, and are not poor. Therefore, almost 13 years ago, I wanted to find a way to highlight African American men’s magnificent stories, accomplishments and achievements that were happening right here in Metro Detroit. It was with this mindset that the Michigan Chronicle created and annually presents the Men of Excellence (MOE) Awards ceremony spotlighting African American men in greater Detroit. These men defined excellence in various walks of life, including community, civic, business/entrepreneurship, religion, law, politics/government, education, entertainment, and other areas. I remember our first MOE, when we honored 50 extraordinary black men. Believe it or not, there were people – and I won’t mention names – who thought we would run out of African American men to honor. However, with the 600-plus men that we’ve honored since the inception of MOE, I can honestly say that we’ve just scratched the surface of black excellence among our males. There’s more – a whole lot more to honor! During my extensive travels throughout all areas of Detroit, I see strong black men of excellence working in various fields for the betterment of themselves, their families, their communities, and their careers. Of course, there are some black men mired in the stereotypes that are often placed on our race. Nevertheless, I see that things are getting better on multiple fronts in the black community. Yet, more has to be done. And we, as black men, must lead the way, first by not listening to bias reports and surveys, such as “we live in poverty,” because poverty among black men has fallen from 41 percent in 1960 to 18 percent today. And, black men in the middle or upper class – as measured by their family income – have risen from 38 percent in 1960 to 57 percent today. Again, I say, more must be done. Numbers matter, but empirical and visual facts are vitally and equally important. This means there are many black men who are factually doing excellent things in every sector of this city. And that’s what MOE is all about. It’s highlighting and spotlighting black men who exemplify excellence in many ways. And trust me, there’s no shortage of black men that meet the criteria and definition of excellence in this city, county, state or nation. And speaking of excellence, at the upcoming MOE Awards ceremony, the Michigan Chronicle will present its Vanguard Award to four African American men who have done, and continue to do excellent things in Detroit and beyond. They are Dennis Archer, Eric Sabree, Tony Saunders, and Sylvester Hester. Judge Greg Mathis, another man of excellence, will deliver the event’s Keynote Address. Therefore, I invite you to help the Michigan Chronicle honor this year’s 50 new Men of Excellence. The 2019 MOE Awards ceremony will be held on Friday, August 2 (6:00 p.m. reception, 7:00 p.m. awards program) at the Motor City Casino Hotel in downtown Detroit.

  • The Use of Social Media in Risk and Crisis Communication”
    OECD Working Papers on Public Governance No. 24 The Use of Social Media Cécile Wendling, in Risk and Crisis Jack Radisch, Communication Stephane Jacobzone https://dx.doi.org/10.1787/5k3v01fskp9s-en WORKING PAPER “THE USE OF SOCIAL MEDIA IN RISK AND CRISIS COMMUNICATION” CÉCILE WENDLING, JACK RADISCH, STEPHANE JACOBZONE ABSTRACT This report highlights the changing landscape of risk and crisis communications and in particular how social media can be a beneficial tool, but also create challenges for crisis managers. It explores different practices of risk and crisis communications experts related to the use of social media and proposes a framework for monitoring the development of practices among countries in the use of social media for risk and crisis communications. The three step process spans passive to dynamic use of social media, and provides governments a self-assessment tool to monitor and track progress in the uptake of effective use of social media by emergency services or crisis managers. 2 NOTE BY THE SECRETARIAT This report addresses risk and crisis communications, a core policy area for the High Level Risk Forum. It draws on the outcome of the discussions held at a workshop organized jointly by the OECD and the International Risk Governance Council (IRGC), in Geneva (Switzerland), on 29 June 2012 on the theme of ''Risk and crisis communication: the challenges of social media''. This workshop gathered participants from 12 OECD countries, think tanks, academia, the private sector and international organizations to discuss the challenges that emergency services and public relations managers confront in relation to the emergence of social media.

  • Autoethnography of the Cultural Competence Exhibited at an African American Weekly Newspaper Organization
    Volume 16, 2019 AUTOETHNOGRAPHY OF THE CULTURAL COMPETENCE EXHIBITED AT AN AFRICAN AMERICAN WEEKLY NEWSPAPER ORGANIZATION Erik Bean American Public University, [email protected] Washington DC, U.S.A. ABSTRACT Aim/Purpose Little is known of the cultural competence or leadership styles of a minority owned newspaper. This autoethnography serves to benchmark one early 1990s example. Background I focused on a series of flashbacks to observe an African American weekly newspaper editor-in-chief for whom I reported to 25 years ago. In my reflec- tions I sought to answer these questions: How do minorities in entrepreneurial organizations view their own identity, their cultural competence? What degree of this perception is conveyed fairly and equitably in the community they serve? Methodology Autoethnography using both flashbacks and article artifacts applied to the lead- ership of an early 1990s African American weekly newspaper. Contribution Since a literature gap of minority newspaper cultural competence examples is apparent, this observation can serve as a benchmark to springboard off older studies like that of Barbarin (1978) and that by examining the leadership styles and editorial authenticity as noted by The Chicago School of Media Theory (2018), these results can be used for comparison to other such minority owned publications. Findings By bringing people together, mixing them up, and conducting business any oth- er way than routine helped the Afro-American Gazette, Grand Rapids, proudly display a confidence sense of cultural competence. The result was a potentiating leadership style, and this style positively changed the perception of culture, a social theory change example. Recommendations For the minority leaders of such publications, this example demonstrates effec- for Practitioners tive use of potentiating leadership to positively change the perception of the quality of such minority owned newspapers.
