Robert W. Coleman a school in Baltimore has just won our hearts! There’s no such thing as detention at the Baltimore elementary, instead they have a Mindful Moment Room, a brightly colored “oasis of calm” that looks about as far as you can get from the detention rooms typically used to punish kids. It’s part of a program called Holistic Me, an initiative that teaches children to practice mindful meditation and breathing exercises while encouraging them to talk to behavioral professionals.

BCG Celebrates Three Years of Sunday Soul ATL October 23rd!

Next month BCG celebrates three years of #SundaySoulATL with our largest pop-up kitchen to date in Atlanta and the menu will be amazing.

Celebrating Tupac Shakur’s Giving Legacy 20 Years Later!

Tupac is proof that we should never judge a book by its cover! How he was raised and where he was grew up made it hard for him to be heard. He used his voice, his words, simple poetry to tell the story of his communities' lifestyle to display what was actually happening, even today in many black communities. Today, 20 years after his physical departure, he is one of the top selling Hip-Hop artists of all time. His gift- his words and creative talent- continues to inspire others around the world, but few know just how much he did behind the scenes to give back too. I share with you some fell good things that Pac did for others and are not often talked about. I celebrate his legacy, his music and his giving, RIP Tupac!
