The 10 Talks Tech conference, sponsored by Community Board 10, the NAACP and the Greater Harlem Chamber of Commerce, held at the venerable Schomburg Center on June 10 was a rousing success.

Our founder, Led Black, was selected as a panelist for a super relevant panel about Tech and Activism. Many thanks to the 2nd Vice Chair of Community Board 10 Charles F.

My dad likes to refer to Father’s Day as “El Día de los Perros” (The Day of the Dogs) because fathers, he says, don’t get the same kind of love and respect as mothers do. With that said, TODAY, we are shining a well-deserved light on some amazing fathers. Much Love to all the outstanding fathers out there grinding every day for their children, their families and their communities. Stay tuned for more in the Father-Hood series. Much love to @photosbyloredana & @juanbago for making magic happen…

Happy Father’s Day Familia…
