About the Publisher Sheniynah Richardson was born on October 11, 1979 in Chicago, Illinois, but has dwelled in Columbus, Mississippi for the majority of her life. She has recently returned to Columbus to began the S.E.E.D. program and work as Secondary teacher. Richardson is also a patent pending inventor, looking to launch her product within the next two years. She graduated from Columbus High School in 1998. Upon completing her high school diploma, she attended Mississippi University for Women (MUW), majoring in Communications with emphasis in Public Relations and a minor in Psychology, where she received her Bachelor’s of Science Degree in 2002. She is currently seeking a Master’s Degree in Child and Family Studies. Richardson was also a production assistant at WCBI-TV news while attending college. After graduating from MUW she continued to pursue a career in radio and marketing in Hollywood, CA. After living in Los Angeles for three years, Richardson moved back to Columbus to work as a substitute teacher. Her experiences fueled her desire to teach permanently, thus she obtained a Mississippi teaching licensure. Education empowers students to become more productive in life and without it, they become victim of a harsh society, because they do not know what is available to them. I hold myself responsible to show students the rewards of education, to show them that hard work and a positive attitude is what yields success.” Richardson is currently in the developing and organizing phases of the Self Empowerment and Excellence Development Outreach Program (S.E.E.D.) for ex– offenders seeking to successfully transition as productive members of the community. The program is suited to provide basic necessities (free health care, food pantry, education, job training/placement, resume’ development promotion of entrepreneurship, job referral services, temporary to permanent housing) liberties typically unoffered to convicted felons. The premise of the program is to reclaim our Black communities by nurturing one of our greatest assets, the Black male. For many generations women have been left with the charge of raising families and securing finances. Where Black women have fallen short, social welfare programs have fed and raised our children. Now is the time to bring the Black culture back to order and charge our men with the responsibilities willfully handed to the government. Productive Black men yield productive successors. Recreating the Black male image will deter future generations from the anticipated snags of drug abuse, gang banging, incarceration and premature death.
