We must start to smile, honestly smile, smile very deeply from the inside.
Such honest and deep smiles will help us uproot the very hurting stereotypes that we culturally inherited and habitually use -- without thinking -- every day of our lives.
I'm a newspaper veteran and quite familiar with the Greater Metro Memphis news arena.
Many first became familiar with me as Leroy Williams Jr. I changed my name in 1986 as part of a journey of self-discovery. Karanja means guide; Aidoo is one who puts things in place, sets things in order; and Ajanaku means free and wealthy people.
Born April 26, 1955 in Natchitoches, La., I grew up in Kansas City, Mo. The thoughts reflected in this blog are connected - directly or indirectly - to my experience with The Future America Basic Research Institute, whose Chief Researcher, Dr. Nkosi K.M. Ajanaku, Esq., is also its founder.
