MY CULTURAL BIRTHRIGHTS AND OTHER BLACK GOLD is about two experiences: my elusive career and my rather interesting, personal life story.

Produktbeschreibung
MY CULTURAL BIRTHRIGHTS AND OTHER BLACK GOLD is about two experiences: my elusive career and my rather interesting, personal life story. Over the years those who know me have told me repeatedly that I have had an exciting life and that I should tell my story. I hope that there is something in these words that can inspire someone to become better in their life journey, by reading my life examples of the good and bad experiences and knowing some of the facts that are seldom talked about in the hair, health and beauty industry, an industry that has made so many people wealthy and an industry that I have personally spent most of my life working in and enjoying. MY CULTURAL BIRTHRIGHTS AND OTHER BLACK GOLD also tells the story of my blessed life that has taken me to so many places, met many incredible people like First Lady Michelle Obama, President Nelson Mandela or Muhammad Ali, and allowed me to experience so many things that most people have not seen or would know very little about in a lifetime. It has been an incredible ride. And I thank God for allowing me to take this journey and share my feelings of love and pride for my family, loved ones and friends.

In acknowledging the rich and diverse history of the City of Chicago, as well as the great accomplishments of its founder, (Friends of DuSable & Chicago Commission on Human Relationa) was responsible for establishing a citywide commemoration in Honor of Jean Baptiste Pointe DuSable. The now implementations of the DuSable Commemoration not only serves as a day to honor DuSable, it is a vehicle to bring communities together for a day of unity in celebration on March 4th each year of the origin of the great city of Chicago that they all share. Haroon declares that he is an advocate for human rights and dedicates his free time to political and social causes. His view of America and the world is one that respects Equal Human Rights as the only expectable narrative and advocacy for the 21st century and beyond and, in that spirit, he will often quote that: In the Spirit of Du Sable, I Will.
