ASSOCIATE EDITOR’S ADDRESS Greetings Brothers, We’ve made it to November after what may have been for many of us, arguably the most challenging year of our lives. While many of us have had to endure the twists and turns that this year has brought us, it is my hope that we have also been finding ways to take advantage of the many opportunities that have presented themselves. Whether that entails expanding your financial portfolio, taking time to practice self-care, or spending more time with loved ones, it is important that we find the time for the things that keep us grounded. First of all, we vote. Since we are in election week, it is important that we exercise our rights to vote.— not only for our ancestors, but for ourselves. I recommend that Brothers take the time to create a safety plan for the outcome of the election. I have been seeing many videos about turmoil in the streets across the United States as we get closer to election day, and hope that you all keep yourselves and your loved ones in safe keeping. While tensions are at an all time high, please reach out to one another and check-in. Often times, many of us end up biting off more than we can chew, and the high level of stress we typically are under, isn’t always easily identifiable.
This week will prove to be a challenging one, hence the shorter address. However, I would like to leave you with a quote: “Our lives begin to die the day we become silent about things that matter” - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Fraternally,
