10 Reasons to Vote For Me #WriteMyNameMommaKai

Welcome and welcome back. It's another amazing day in paradise. Thank you so much for being here. 

I'm so excited by this post. I have a playlist on YouTube that gives an expanded explanation for each of the 10 reasons to write my name as your preferred candidate for the next mayor of Raleigh. So this is the "Reader's Digest" version (for those who are old enough to remember what that means). 

Here's the introduction listing them all 10 reasons with brief explanations, similar to what's listed here. 

Here is the list with the link to each video.

1. I'm every woman - I have more in common with the entire population of the city than any other candidate.

2. I'm actually in and engaged with the entire community, not just a portion of it - Wisdom and I have been everywhere and have met all kinds of people in all areas of the city. 

3. I'm not a politician, I'm a mom - I realized that the leaders who are elected this year will set the stage for how the world will operate once my young Black male superhero is an adult so I'm running for him and the future generation he represents, not to advance anyone else's personal agenda, especially when it's for their personal profit and not the entire community.

4. People don't like me and/or my son. I'm ok with that.

5. I'm not the smartest and I don't have to be.

6. I’m a systems thinker - I'm not ok with the current political system or the vile way some people desecrate what should be a sacred and humbling privilege, responsibility, opportunity and duty. I want that to change. I'm able to initiate that change.

7. I’m leading with compassion and neuroscience - The common denominator of both words is that there's a need to be met.

8. My young Black male superhero and I live in our car - People like us rarely have a seat at the table, let alone are able to lead the conversations.

9. We have the most City of Raleigh swag (Heeheehee...) - That's right. We have the toilet squishy from the Water Dept. I bet none of the other candidates can top that one (wink, wink, smile)! Seriously though, I mention that because we're at events. We go places where staff are and engage with them and/or learn from them.

10. Raleigh has never had a black female mayor - Need I say more? I'll only add, "Representation Matters". The End!

Please check out the videos for details or go straight to the next post to find out where I stand on a number of issues affecting our city. 

I hope what you see, read and/or hear will compel you to write my name as your preferred candidate for the next mayor of Raleigh. Thank you again and in advance. Enjoy the amazing day you’re creating. Peace…

3 Target Communities #WriteMyNameMommaKai

Welcome and welcome back. It's another amazing day in paradise.  Thank you so much for being here. I hope you find something compelling, inviting and new. I want to keep these relatively short and sweet now that I've introduced myself and expressed gratitude for this incredible journey Wisdom and I have been on. We have a beautiful, challenging life together but we've got each other and that helps us get through each and every day. Wisdom is also the reason why I am here, why I have the audacity to think I can lead the city that sits at the top of lots of lists. My reality is... it's not #1 for everyone but it can be. And I intend to lead it in that direction. That can only happen when we have a dedicated focus on those who need the most attention. I have found there are 3 groups of people that meet that criteria of needing a dedicated focus. Those 3 groups are: 1. Our Elders: This can be done by helping them bridge the digital divide. But I think another thing we can l...

Visions of the Future - Little Bit of Everything Else #WriteMyNameMommaKai

Welcome and welcome back. It's another amazing day in paradise. Thank you so much for being here. I want you to know I have thoughts on just about everything. So let's explore what's going on in my mind. Here I give a tagline, brief bullet points and/or a summary on some of the thoughts I've had about... well everything I've had some experience with. We have been a little bit of everywhere and have talked to more than a few people about things. So I've got a position I'm going to speak on. I'm grateful I am writing now, because I had the opportunity to engage with several members of our Transportation Department at an event on Wednesday the 30th. They gave me answers to questions I was pretty triggered by. This covers more than transportation. I mention that to say, our city workers are pretty accessible. We can get the answers we need to questions we have. I'm grateful I know that. Let's go: Employees/Human Resources: We want our city employees...
