(PRINCETON - BMORENEWS - May 14, 2012) - The BMORENEWS Family is pleased to announce that nationally-recognized movie and book critic Lloyd “Kam” Williams will be honored at our “Global Forum on Women’s Empowerment”. The Forum will take place at the United Nations in New York City on Friday, June 15, 2012 from 11 am to 3 pm. As one our distinguished attendees, you will have the opportunity to: (1) meet representatives at Missions from around the world; (2) discuss ever-evolving challenges in the global business arena; (3) identify empowerment opportunities for women; and (4) develop action plans/items and execute effective follow-up strategies.
Voted Most Outstanding Journalist of the Decade by the Disilgold Soul Literary Review in 2008, Kam Williams is a syndicated film and book critic who writes for 100+ publications around the U.S., Europe, Asia, Africa, Canada and the Caribbean. He is a member of the New York Film Critics Online, the Black Film Critics Circle, the NAACP Image Awards Nominating Committee and Rotten Tomatoes. In addition to a BA in Black Studies from Cornell, he has an MA in English from Brown, an MBA from The Wharton School, and a JD from Boston University. Kam lives in Princeton, NJ with his wife and son.
According to BMORENEWS publisher Doni Glover, "For the uninitiated, Kam Williams is - by far - the finest in the country at what he does." He added, "Nobody writes more consistently and with more preparation than does he. He happens to be African American, but as for entertainment journalism, Kam is world-class. His contribution to the world of media in America and beyond is absolutely priceless. The way he brings the story out is like no other. And even more, Kam's interviewed every black star in the industry - just about!"
For the past decade, BMORENEWS has been organizing and presenting a plethora of business networking events to help empower entrepreneurs. Given the upcoming 10th anniversary for BMORENEWS.com, this marquee event is meant to represent our best. And that should include you! This UN forum is but another example of our dedication to business networking. It is part of our continuum of work that has brought together business deals for the past ten years.
Having been a part of business networking events around the country, this time we’re talking globally: How to sell books in Europe or get it published in Chinese or how to import leather from Ethiopia to make coats or shoes.

The Glover Report: It's Election Time!:
Whether it's Detroit, Chicago, Atlanta - wherever, black people have to come to better understand a Delegate from a state Senator and a state Senator from a US Senator. We have to understand what the local Council does, what the state assembly does, and what is done in Congress. We also have to understand the legislation they write and who it impacts. Classic example: prisons. Somebody is voting for more and more prisons. My issue is that too many people who look just like me keep filling these cells. Currently, America has the Gold! It incarcerates 25% of the world's inmates, 40% who are black and male ... like me.
