Profile Information

Why do you want to join Black Business Women Online?: Promote my success story and bring African Art and Culture to North America

What's Your Business?: African Art and Cultural Items. We offer an affordable selection of beautiful works by artisans from all regions in Africa. Please consider this site whenever you need to purchase a gift for any occassion. Many African Americans are aware of their connection to Africa. Even if you have not yet had the chance to trace your roots, you may identify with other successful African Americans. The Obama family have traced their roots to Eastern Africa. Oprah has traced her roots to West Africa. If you are inspired by the great Nelson Mandela, have a look at our South Africa section.

How did you find BBWO?: Search Engine

About Me:: I am a proud South African. I grew up in the rural areas of the Eastern Cape, experiencing life without running water, electricity or shoes on my feet. Even though life was hard, I grew up with a sense of pride and purpose. I learned great respect for my elders, the values of tradition and family bonds and that Ubuntu helps you find the right path through life.

I was lucky however, to have an aunt recognize my potential who encouraged me to seek higher education, giving me a place to stay and access to schools. I had to work to fund my education myself. I managed to hold a job and help my aunt to care for a large family. I graduated from Nelson Mandela University as a Radiographer. I have since worked in South Africa, Ireland and California, USA.

With respect to my new website: “Many African communities are already emerging through increases in economic activity from a variety of industries. We don’t hear enough about the successes in Africa. I would encourage people to embrace the spirit of Ubuntu and the beauty of Africa by proudly displaying these unique works of art, and simultaneously helping African communities.”

Ubuntu: In an African cultural context ubuntu means, a person becomes an ancestor worthy of respect or veneration based on how they interact with humanity.

The Art of Ubuntu pays a fair price for products in an effort to be a part of the economic solution for all African communities. Proudly display these culturally significant items in your home or office and embrace the notion of Ubuntu, benefiting yourself and our brothers and sisters in Africa.

Your products are gorgeous. Please think about advertising them on our site that reaches 26,000+ black professionals from all over the world. We haven't even launched yet, we are bracing for an explosion. Come and be a part of this. Please accept my invitation to add me as a friend and connect with 26,000+ black professionals that are supporting each other's businesses (mlm’s are welcomed). It is a powerful group with lots of benefits and opportunity to connect with other powerful black professionals and their families all around the world. We are currently in the pre-launch phase, so can you imagine what's going to happen after the launch this month in Atlanta, GA.

This is one of the hottest, new websites on the Internet, called www.globalblackbusinessnetwork.com. Black people are uniting to network and support black businesses. It's really great. If you’re ready to be a part of a movement that will create wealth in our communities (that means you) I encourage you to click on the link, JOIN and list yourself (for FREE) for exposure and reach for your products and/or services. This is also an awesome resource to find and buy black products/services from black professionals (join for FREE). Visit the site and check out the businesses where brothers and sistas are part of this GROWING movement to “Buy Black”.

Be blessed,
