Aero-Ba-Soul, Inc.’s CEO Kecia Palmer-Cousins, COO Kevin Cousins and the Aero-Ba-Soul, Inc. team hope
that everyone is well and safe as we all continue to celebrate Black History Month!
Black history is our past, present and future!

Today’s black youth are “game-changers”! The Aero-Ba-Soul, Inc. team believes in our youth and support many in their educational and civic engagement endeavors. We support those who mentor our youth each and everyday. We walk on the shoulders of our ancestors and do our best to pay it forward, mentoring, motivating, educating and following in the footsteps of past Black leaders like Mary McLeod Bethune.

Black Diamonds President Zack Allen proudly paid tribute to his relative W. Haywood Burns, a former resident of Peekskill, NY, who was a beacon of light to those who believe the battle for human rights and justice can be won through activism, humility, and dedication. Thanks, Zack for introducing so many of us to this great humanitarian during Black History month!

(1940 - 1996)
After graduating with honors from Harvard College and receiving a law degree from Yale University, Burns served as the first law clerk for District Court Judge Constance Baker Motley. In 1968, he served as general counsel to Martin Luther King’s Poor People’s Campaign. He was one of the founders of the National Conference of Black Lawyers. He worked on the defense of the Attica prisoners and many other people struggling for self-determination. Burns was also the founding dean of the City College Urban Legal Studies Program, serving from 1977-1987.
|
|
Burns went on to serve as dean of the Law School at the City University of New York (CUNY). He was a visiting scholar at Yale Law School and returned to New York to establish a Harlem-based law firm. Talent, passion and zest for life were his signatures. He was tragically killed in an automobile accident while attending the International Association of Democratic Lawyers conference in Cape Town, South Africa. Burns’ family endorses the use of his name for the work of the BI, which was created in 2001 by James Bell. There is no more fitting a person in whose memory the BI works on behalf of youth of color, their families and communities.

May the best team win on Sunday!

PHILANTHROPY AND NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES
|
|
Many minority and women business enterprise entrepreneurs use their local, County and State Agencies to stay current and tap into potential resources and procurement opportunities for their businesses and their communities. Getting MWBE Certified
and procuring government contracts can help MWBEs build their businesses! Grants, loans, networking, attending training classes, workshops and joining chambers of commerce and professional organizations are also parts of MWBEs portfolios to
grow their businesses. We encourage MWBEs to become civically and politically engaged in their communities and the communities that they serve!
