(BALTIMORE) — I have met a lot of entrepreneurs in my 61 years. I have met people who went from selling incense to becoming millionaires. I have watched people go from a life in the streets to a bountiful life as successful entrepreneurs. I have seen people build businesses in catering, the funeral industry, the church, law, science, and entertainment. And yes, lawyers are entrepreneurs, too. Different industries.

Honored Saturday, the Coppin State Athletics Hall of Famer and educator has a legacy that lives in the people he helped become who they are. (BALTIMORE – October 6, 2026) – In Baltimore, basketball credentials mean something. Dr. Warren C. Hayman has them. A Coppin State Athletics Hall of Famer, he belongs in any conversation about the people who helped shape this city’s basketball tradition. But sitting among the people who gathered to honor him Saturday, October 3, I was reminded that the court is only one place where this man has made his mark. Doctors. Educators.

(BALTIMORE – October 1, 2026) — I cannot speak for anyone else, but for me, Wednesday night, September 30, at Colin’s Seafood & Grill was a very special occasion. My accountant, Joan Pratt, was there. Best accountant in town, if you ask me. Her CPA firm is right there in Northeast Baltimore, not far from Colin’s. My seventh- and eighth-grade English teacher, Catherine B. Orange, was there, too. We knew her from Lemmel. Others in the room, including Jet Miller, knew her from City College. People I went to school with nearly 50 years ago came out. We broke bread.…

(BALTIMORE – September 30, 2026) – Saturday’s Black Wall Street Expo was riddled with rain. Still, business went on. That morning, Jacqui Cummings already had a message ready for callers asking whether the event would be canceled. Even with the weather threatening everything she had worked to bring together, she was handling business. That’s Jacqui! Jacqui Cummings is the mompreneur who founded Notre Maison, a nonprofit serving young adults in Baltimore. She is also a woman who pours her time, energy, and resources into helping Black-owned businesses succeed. Anybody can imagine how she must have felt Saturday. I know I…

(BALTIMORE – September 28, 2026) — Maybe you left college to work. Maybe you were raising children, caring for family, or facing a bill that couldn’t wait. You earned credits, but life interrupted the degree. Morgan State University’s latest scholarship announcement speaks directly to people in that position. The Crankstart Foundation has renewed an $800,000, four-year grant to help adult learners return and earn their first bachelor’s degree. Morgan’s Center for Continuing and Professional Studies has administered the scholarship since 2016. But the announcement opens a larger conversation for anyone who has ever said, “I need to go back and finish.”…
