Lurie recently joined Carole’s Kitchen Cabinet Leadership Team and will regularly give you advice, answer questions and help you design a stress free financial future for peace of mind and long term success. We’ll also talk with MassVote Executive Director Cheryl Crawford and discuss the low voter turnout (31%) in this week’s hot Boston mayoral Primary. With such an important primary why did so few eligible voters show up at the polls? And more importantly how does this connect to other elections across the country with low voter turnouts? From creating personal wealth to voter advocacy, today’s show will stretch you towards a new course of action. About Lurie Davis Lurie Davis is a native of Lynn, Massachusetts.

Your Comments Are Welcome. 9/23/2013 Carole's Video Tip For Today: Go Vote!! Boston Primary Election on Tuesday September 24, 2013ÂRead NowAs a staunch diversity advocate and someone who is fanatical about voting I urge EVERY eligible voter in Boston to cast your ballot in the mayoral and city council Primary Election on Tuesday September 24, 2013. Never before in the history of Boston has there been 12 candidates for mayor, including 6 of the 12 people of color including one woman! They are all would-be hopefuls, in their quest to replace the successful 20 year record setting leadership of Mayor Tom Menino. (He announced that he would not run for a sixth term in office last March, 2013.) If you know someone in Boston, share this video with them. If you don't live in Boston, make sure that YOU are a registered vote and vote in every election in your city or town. This is one of the tips in my book: 21 Ways to Bring Multiculturalism To Your Job Your Home And Your Community. -Carole Copeland Thomas Here's The Boston Globe Link To A Profile Of All 12 Boston Mayoral Candidates: http://www.boston.com/news/politics/2013_boston_mayoral_race/main_graphic And Click On The Audio Clips Below For Interviews I Conducted With Charlotte Golar Richie and Charles Yancey For My Radio Program.

The elephant in the room is RACE and it showed up in a courtroom with Paula Deen and in a Swiss boutique with Oprah. Two different reasons. In two separate countries thousands of miles away. Paula Deen admitted to frequent use of the “N” word with staff, friends, family and colleagues. Oprah strolled into a fashionable Swiss boutique and was refused service when the clerk thought the purse she wanted to see was too expensive for her tastebuds. Let’s clear the record, Electing a popular and prolific Black President does NOT make this country post racial! And now it doesn’t make the world post racial! Race is embedded in the DNA of our society, even though it is merely a social construct crafted by the slave owners of the 1600s. We’ll explore the reasons why race still matters with Mary-Frances Winters, a veteran diversity professional who has personally felt the sting of racial injustice and understands why it persists to this day. ======================== About Mary-Frances Winters www.wintersgroup.com Mary-Frances Winters is president and founder of The Winters Group, a 28-year-old organization development and diversity-consulting firm, specializing in research, strategic planning, training, and public speaking with an emphasis in ethnic and multicultural issues. Prior to founding The Winters Group in 1984, Winters was affirmative action officer and senior market analyst at Eastman Kodak Company, where she worked for 11 years. She is a graduate of the University of Rochester with undergraduate degrees in English and Psychology, and a master’s degree in business administration from the William E. Simon Executive Development Program. She received an honorary doctorate from Roberts Wesleyan College in 1997. Winters was selected to serve as Rochester Institute of Technology’s College of Continuing Education’s 1994-95 Distinguished Minett Professor where she taught a leadership course titled, 21st Century Leader: Visionary, Inspired, and Spiritually Grounded at the graduate level. ======================= Your Comments Are Welcome Below... -Carole How To Download Today's Show •Can't listen live???

Thomas & Associates 26 Years In Business 1987 - 2013 (508) 947-5755 Carole (bottom left with different hairstyle) with members of the Diversity Collegium. Dr. Roosevelt Thomas is the third from the right. Date: 1999 or 2000 at one of our meetings in Northern California Because Of Him, Dignity For All People Spreads Worldwide... A Tribute To Diversity Pioneer The Late Dr. Roosevelt Thomas 1944 - 2013 by Carole Copeland Thomas, MBA, CDMP In the early 1990s when I was building my business and my diversity practice, I was invited to join a newly formed group called the Diversity Collegium. Co-founded by Dr. Price Cobbs, Dr. Roosevelt Thomas and other practitioners in 1991, the group put aside its competitiveness and banded together to advance the cause of diversity. I was in the second round of consultants invited to join the group. And meeting and working with Roosevelt, Price and the others significantly impacted my business and reinforced my commitment to the field. It also reaffirmed my belief and commitment to collaborating with others and coalition building. I stayed in the Collegium until 2002, but always respected my colleagues, especially the insightful wisdom of Roosevelt Thomas. He was a quiet gentle giant, steadily pushing diversity in a forward direction. His 1990 article “From Affirmative Action to Affirming Diversity” was the mainstay of every diversity practitioner I knew. And the books he wrote formed the backdrop of the business case for diversity. He was respected around the world and loved for his wise counsel and wisdom. Last week after exercising in his home, he fell, hit his head and never regained consciousness. His death was swift and sudden. Today what would have been his 69th birthday was a somber and stately funeral at Friendship Baptist Church in Atlanta. Left behind to mourn are his wife Judge Ruby Thomas, their children, grand child, extended family and the entire world of diversity and inclusion indebted to his contribution to the field.

And please visit www.diversitycollegium.org for more information about the wonderful organization I called home for many years. Roosevelt Thomas will be missed by all of us, but never forgotten. My thoughts and prayers go with his beloved wife, Rudy, children, grandchild, and extended family members. We are all so blessed to have known him. His contributions to our global society will be felt for generations to come. -Carole Copeland Thomas, MBA, CDMP Click Here To Read The Diversity Collegium Press Release About The Death Of Dr. Roosevelt Thomas Your Comments Or Reflections About Dr. Roosevelt Thomas Are Welcome Above: Simma Lieberman (right) with her partner of 18 years, the late Sandra Brown and their son Avi.

Log Onto: www.blogtalkradio.com/globalcarole Listen LIVE or Download Anytime ======================== As a heterosexual diversity professional, I have had connections to the LGBT community for my entire life. And I am a devout Christian. My children's godfather is gay. A very close personal friend of our family was gay. And I have had lesbian friends for many years. For me, it's just the way it is…some people are straight like me. Some people are not. And in that spirit I openly endorsed the Massachusetts court ruling on same sex marriage in 2004, much to the horror of some of my would be friends and clients. Now nine years later LGBT and same sex marriage issues are part of our everyday conversation. And today, to shed light on a very personal experience of what it's like to live in the LGBT community, my guest is Simma Lieberman. My friend for many years. A well respected diversity and inclusion consultant from Berkeley, California. And a lesbian mother who recently shared her evolution on same sex marriage following the death of her partner of 18 years, Sandra Brown. Her commentary was just published on the CNN website…and its heartwarming account of two women in love will cause you to re-examine your own perspective on LGBT issues. Stop long enough and listen to today's show. And share the interview with your friends and colleagues so that you can explore LGBT issues with greater clarity and confidence. ============ Link To CNN Article: http://www.cnn.com/2013/05/01/opinion/lieberman-same-sex-marriage/?utm_source=CNN+Publishes+My+Story&utm_campaign=CNN+story&utm_medium=email ============ About Simma Lieberman (www.simmalieberman.com) Simma Lieberman is internationally known as "The Inclusionist," because she creates inclusive cultures where people love to do their best work, and customers love to do business.
