Do me a favor — lower your head in shame if you’ve ever accused someone of committing a transgression despite not being able to correctly define what said transgression entails. Well, if you’ve ever criticized President Barack Obama for practicing respectability politics, your chin had better be slouched against your chest. Click on the link below to read more.

Dr. Vibe does his first movie review on the movie “Hidden Figures”.
HIDDEN FIGURES is based on a best-selling non-fiction book written by a Black woman about three amazing Black women at NASA in the Sixties whose math calculations helped the first American astronaut make a complete orbit around the Earth in 1962 (he actually circled the Earth three times and became the fifth person in space).
The film recounts the story of the African-American mathematician Katherine Johnson and her two colleagues, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson, who, while working in the segregated West Area Computers division of Langley Research Center, helped NASA catch up in the Space Race. Using their calculations, John Glenn became the first American astronaut to make a complete orbit of the Earth.
The movie stars Taraji P. Henson, Academy Award® winner Octavia Spencer and singer-songwriter extraordinaire Janelle Monae. Hidden Figures is already generating great buzz, and a screening was even hosted by Michelle Obama at The White House. There is incredible Oscar buzz building around Hidden Figures and given #OscarsSoWhite last year, there is a strong belief this movie has a shot at Oscar nominations, which is exciting and inspiring.

Shaniece M. Wise holds the title of Mother, Entrepreneur, Personal Development Coach, Motivational Speaker, and Author. She believed that after graduating from the Ohio State University Fisher College of Business with two business degrees, that corporate America was her only option. After two years of being unhappy, unmotivated, and unfulfilled in her career as a Pharmaceutical Distributor, she happily closed the door on corporate America and went after her dreams.
Fourteen years ago, Shaniece stepped into her dream and became a fulltime business owner with one of the largest direct selling companies in the United States. Over the last fourteen years, she has traveled all around the United States teaching and coaching on self-motivation, growth and development, and how to live with expectation.
Shaniece and her organization in one year sold over $500,000 in retail sales. This was the year she got married, received national awards, and was at the peak of her game; never losing and always winning . . . until the unthinkable happened. Never in her wildest dreams did Shaniece think she would go through a divorce after two years of marriage, only to become a single mother and alone. In that moment she had to actually use the skills and techniques she was teaching others for herself. Her teaching and developing became her testimony. She had to learn how to encourage herself, bounce back, get out of debt, love again, and move past the pain of regret. She had to learn how to self-motivate, be a business woman, and be a mother. She had to learn time and emotional management on an entirely new level.
Shaniece has had to adapt to change and learn to move when God says move. She is currently transitioning from career to purpose. Becoming a Personal Development Coach, Motivational Speaker, and Author has allowed her to serve the universe with her gifts, which are empowering and developing.
May 2016, Shaniece wrote and published a workbook to accompany her workshop with the same title, Activating Y our Gifts. She teaches workshops all over the United States on how to activate your gifts and accept your authentic self. In this workshop, she teaches techniques on how to identify in life what makes you happy, what your true purpose is, and how you can serve others with your gifts and talents. She teaches you how to motivate yourself, leave the past in the past, and create an abundant life.
There are activities in the book that teaches how to develop personally so your professional life can thrive. She also published an activation activity CD titled “Working On You.” This CD has activities that complement the workbook. It involves activities that teach self-empowerment, aids in the development of time management skills, and focusing on being the 360 degree person God designed you to be.
In 2015, Shaniece received two national awards for the exceptional growth of her business. She works with customers and consultants from coast to coast. Her exemplary coaching abilities have provided a pathway to leadership for many women. These leaders are now flourishing and leading others. They have the opportunity to earn unlimited income, to build an amazing empire, and to strategically position themselves for greatness.
In 2016, Shaniece was featured in Speak Woman magazine. Shaniece believes anything is possible, and her favorite quote that she wrote is “Unstoppable is not what you do, it is who you are.”
Ms. Wise currently speaks and teachs all over the United States on different topics out of her book, Activating Your Gifts, which you can find Amazon.com and many other sources. Shaniece wrote this book for people who are not utilizing the gifts inside of them to their fullest potential as a professional or entrepreneur. “When you can truly operate out of your gift, not only do you grow, but the people around you have the opportunity to grow, which then transfers down to your community.” Shaniece says.
Ms. Wise will live on our show tonight at 9 p.m. Eastern/6 p.m. Pacific. She will be talking about Entrepreneurship And Your Gift .
