My School or Alma Mater:: Dartmouth College/New York University

My Career:: Author and Educator

My Accomplishments:: Recently, I won a grant, two years in a row, to produce and perform in a collaborative play: Diary Of A Mad Black Feminist.
Of course, I am also proud of my debut novel, E-Males, which has a five out of six star rating on Amazon.com. Lastly, my creative nonfiction story, Before We Were Gangstas, won Honorable Mention in the New Millenium National Writers of Creative Nonfiction Contest in 2003.

Why I'm Here:: Professional, To Network, To Make Friends, To Share Ideas, To Learn, To Change the World

My Passion:: My passion has always been writing, which is second only to thinking in my book (pun intended).

My Hopes:: My work is meant to change the stereotypes about African American women. I want to reveal the diversity within our community to the world which currently focuses on just one segment (the ghetto) as being representative of us all. Once this perception changes, I think it will influence public policy which has been directly linked to society's conceptions of race, class and gender.

My Dreams:: My dreams are the same as my hopes. i want to be instrumental in this change.

What Else?:: I want to be a resource for other writers. Because of my background and experience in publishing, I can be a source of information for those who need support and advice.

Terrorism Cases To Bring New Scrutiny To N.Y. Court

The federal courthouse in Manhattan has seen a series of high-profile terrorism cases before now, but the trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and the other Guantanamo detainees will be the most scrutinized by far. Melissa Block talks about some of the legal obstacles to come with Joshua Dratel, a consultant with the ACLU's John Adams Project, which fought on behalf of Guantanamo detainees to get their cases transferred out of military court.

Sept. 11 Cases Move From Military To Civilian Courts

The Justice Department has decided to try the alleged mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks in New York. Until now, military commissions at the Guantanamo Naval Base have been handling the legal case against Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who has admitted to planning the attacks. Now, the Obama administration will hand the case to the federal criminal courts.

FDA Calls For Proof Of Alcohol-Caffeine Drinks' Safety

State attorneys general and consumer health groups have criticized the federal government for not regulating the small but fast-growing market of caffeinated alcoholic drinks. Now the federal Food and Drug Administration announces that it's taking its first action on the drinks that are marketed to people in their 20s: Within 30 days, the companies must supply data proving the drinks are "safe" or pull them from the market.

Investigators Seek Motive In Fort Hood Shootings

As Congress prepares to examine whether the government mishandled reports of behavioral issues with Army Maj. Nidal Hasan, the suspected gunman in the Fort Hood shootings, one key question being raised is: Could terrorism have been a motive? Investigators warn it's too early to speculate.

Ohio Changes Executions After Botched Attempt

After a botched execution in September, Ohio officials announced late Friday that they will change how they administer lethal injections. The state had stopped executions after prison officials failed to kill an inmate while administering a cocktail of chemicals. Karen Kasler reports from Ohio Public Radio.

Catholic Bishops' Lobby A Force On The Hill

Democrats recently came to terms with a lobbying force of unexpected influence in the health care debate: the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.
