I do what I do out of pocket attending meetings videoing and taking photos making them public for folk who do not attend for whatever reason. It takes funds to do what I do.

I video a variety of things from meetings, banquets, sporting events, funerals and other. I post my videos on YouTube where you can access them at anytime that is convenient for you.

I also take photos and post them on my Facebook page and make them available for others to see. If someone do not have a Facebook page they can still view the photos.

It takes funds to to travel places and then it takes funds for equipment.

Because of COVID-19 I have been working basically from home doing a lot of research. I pay to read the Rocky Mount Telegram and the Wilson Times. I read all kinds of news sources but try to make sure I validate the source is reliable before sharing information. My followers send me information that they want to be shared however sometimes they do not want to be named. I try to validate any and all information is factual before sharing it.

Thanking you in advance.

Umps tell Black NC softball player to cut her hair during a game. ‘It was humiliating’

On April 19, Nicole Pyles faced a choice of removing her hair beads or abandoning her Hillside High School softball teammates in the middle of their game against Durham rival Jordan High.

The demand came from the game’s two umpires, who were following a strict interpretation of a National Federation of State High School Associations rule that allows players to use bobby pins, barrettes and hair clips but prohibits plastic visors, bandannas and hair beads.

In a Facebook live video of the game, a plea can be heard from the Hillside dugout: “Does anyone have scissors?”

Pyles, who is Black, opted to let her teammates cut her hair to remove the beads so she could continue playing in her team’s senior night game. But she wasn’t happy about it and still isn’t.

“It was humiliating,” Nicole Pyles said in a Zoom interview with The News & Observer on Wednesday. “Why do I have to take away from myself just to play this game where we are actually doing well? I’m embarrassed because you pick on me in front of all these people for no reason.” (Read More The Herald Sun)
