There's a lot going on this weekend in South Florida. Many black leaders and other concerned folks are attending the NAACP Leadership Summit at the Westin Diplomat. (I'll do a separate post later.) The organization is energized by it's new leader, Roslyn Brock, a dynamic young lady. The itinerary of workshops and events is awesome. They are doing big things. Check it out.
It's also Memorial Day Weekend so thousands of young blacks will make South Beach their destination for Urban Beach Week. Prepare for traffic jams if you're heading to Miami Beach. Also of note is Sizzle Beach Weekend (hope I got the name right) that caters to the LGBT crowd. Now I just know that's going to be a blast. Send photos of your weekend but keep them at least PG, OK?
Check out the latest 'Karate Kid' movie starring the oh so cute Jaden Smith, Jackie Chan and Taraji P. Henson. Some of you know you loved the first series of Karate Kid movies and this one looks to be just as endearing. Congratulations to Will and Jada Smith for producing such awesome kids --- Willow and Jaden. And let's not forget debonair Trey who hopefully decides to do something in front of the camera. Alright...alright, enough of the Smith family love fest.
Before I end this post, l would be remiss if I didn't throw in a reminder of what this weekend is about. The parties and other celebrations wouldn't be taking place, I probably wouldn't be writing this blog, were it not for our soldiers that made the ultimate sacrifice of their lives in service to this nation. Thank you.
As you can tell I'm moblogging. I'll holler later. Have a great weekend. Be safe, friends. Smooches...
