RESPECTING EACH OTHER: AVOIDING NEGATIVE SPEECH

Community /

RESPECTING EACH OTHER: AVOIDING NEGATIVE SPEECH Negative speech can be disastrous. As there are examples in human history where thousands and even millions of people can be misled. I believe that by raising awareness and implementing positive influence in our behavior, our humanity, and mankind can avoid negative pitfalls and not repeat previous world conflicts. I was motivated to speak out or discuss this issue as it pertains to current events that we face every day. I begin by defining a few terms as they pertain to the concept of Globalization, which is simply the way that countries and people of the world interact and integrate, combining and becoming whole (one). Though this is not particularly a new concept, the idea of respecting each other’s culture as we assimilate needs constant attention. Assimilation occurs when there is a minority group that begins to resemble a dominant/main group, assuming the values, behaviors, and beliefs of that dominant population. This is very evident in today’s ever-growing cultural, social, and economic “melting pot”, as we witness the slimming of separation of various cultures, such as the case of occurring globalization. How often have we heard the cliché statement, “We live in a small world after all”, a foreshadowing of how closely all human beings relate to one another. Unfortunately, there are those in power that can or do use, in my opinion, this beautiful conceptual life truth to adversely affect a group or groups of people, using derogatory terms, in describing other cultures. This easily allows distraction, separation, misinformation, and consequently, unwarranted hateful feelings toward one another. This is the clinical point of this piece; despite what words are being promoted or circulated, we must remain united in respecting our cultural differences or diversity and our core human value system. No one deserves to be slandered.

Victoria para todos los empresarios: LEY DE RESPONSABILIDAD FISCAL DE M.A.R.CH

Business, español /

La nueva ley de responsabilidad fiscal, M.A.R.C.H (siglas en ingles, Multiagency Hot Spots) en efecto la semana del martes 19 de Noviembre del 2019 es una gran victoria para los pequenos empresarios y negocios. La ley es un destello de luz en la oscuridad regulatoria de la policia, los bomberos y las agencias regulatorias quienes multan a los comerciantes a veces sin explicar el motivo. Las experiencias de los comerciantes refleja las durezas y la falta de entendimiento y sensiblidad de las dependencias de la ciudad,del estado y de los reguladores federales, ya que muchas veces las multas son el anticipo  de aumentos de los alquileres comerciales. Dichos aumentos destabilizan nuestras comunidades ya que crean un vacio economico y de desarrollo comunitario. Los comerciantes ahora respiraran un nuevo aire,”las regulaciones impuestas por la administracion de la ciudad de Nueva York durante la gestion del alcalde Gulianni  eran estilo Gestapo.’ comentaron varios activistas latinos durante la rueda de prensa en Brooklyn.  Hago un llamado al nuevo comisionado de la policia de Nueva York, que trabaje junto a sus homologos en todas las cuidades del estado para fomentar un dialogo de cooperacion y entendimiento entre los diversos sectores empresariales y las comunidades que se benefician de los servicios prestados por los establecimientos. La coalicion de artistas de Nueva York fue una de las organizaciones comunales que trabajo arduamente para levantar la voz y crear conciencia de justicia social en esta nueva ley. Les felicito y a la vez hago un llamado comuninitario  para que apoyemos las inicativas de desarrollo comercial y comunitario que ilustre organizacion promueve. La justicia social es la base de esta gran organizacion. Les urgo que apoyen su noble mision y vision. A la vez les hago un llamado para que unan fuerzas a traves de sus diversas cuidades para compartir la buenaventura de esta ley significativa para el desarrollo y el bienestar economico de nuestro gran estado y de nuestras comunidades.’ Adelante! Lapiz,pluma,papel y usemos las redes sociales para correr la voz de este gran cambio significativo! El concejal Stephen Levin y el concejal Rafael Espinal del concilio municipal de la ciudad de Nueva York han logrado con esta iniciativa restaurar la esperanza de que estamos aqui para contribuir y progresar. En horabuena! Estudia la nueva ley, enterate y busca como esta puede ser una realidad en tu comunidad! Feliz Navidad!

Christmas Memories:When we create lifelong memories

Food & Culture /

First, everyone is running around trying to outguess and outshine anyone. Your loved ones would prefer a less stressful you. Second, people out of guilt make purchases that do not match the recipient of the gift. Your loved ones would prefer your greatest gift, time. Third, there is the argument, how to greet people during this time. Your loved ones would settle for a smile. So, what are the holidays really all about??? That is a very good question. My fondest memory of Christmas was when my sisters and I would get up early, crawl under the angel hair on the big, shiny tree and sneak our gifts out to our bedroom before Mom caught us. We never thought about how we were going to place them back and avoid the harsh scolding afterwards. It was drilled to us that we were to get a single gift and anything more would be given to the less fortunate children under five in the neighborhood. We did not mind that, since that meant they could come over and we would all play together. While the parents were in the kitchen drinking coquito and coffee, the kids took over the living with toys, tape and surprises. It was fun and magical. There were about 15 children, all under five, who looked forward to this moment. We taped each other, wrapped each other in wrapping paper, played with each other’s toys, hair and cherished each moment. We were not only being playful but safe from all the other harms of poverty. Children were treasured and we knew that for this one day we all peacefully, played. My mother always felt Christmas is for the children and Rockefeller Center, Macy’s parade and Santa always took a back seat to what was happening in their homes. These children looked forward to playing and enjoying the joy of Christmas. They knew that once a year they would find presents at my mother’s home and just for that day, there would be no fighting, crying, or complaining. Ghetto children had to settle for much less throughout the year but not at my mother’s and not at Christmas. I want the holidays to always be like those little kids in the ghetto who once year shared laughter, giggled and were silly and so very grateful that Santa left gifts for them.  Fast forward. All those kids (about 15) have grown up and gotten out the ghetto.  They still reach for each other across countries, states and time to share those memories. In their homes, there are always gifts for other children. They all share Christmas memories, forever…..
