As we bring a close to Black History Month February 2011, WCN Transmedia group examines the Dream of Dr. Martin Luther King the worlds' greatest Transmedia Storyteller of Peace, and looks at the opportunities to go from CIVIL RIGHTS TO PLATINUM RIGHTS.
So the real question is "How is this accomplished in the age of Social Networking and Media?"
In this post we will attempt to provide you with the latest tools to go Global with your business, starting with understanding Micro Loans and how they can help Africa and America Bridge the Gap Economically; Then at the bottom of this post there will be a special invitation that WCN Transmedia Group is leaving for the unemployed, underemployed and for those who understand the need for multiple revenue streams. But first lets give honor to whom honor is due.
God we thank you so much for the collective ability to communicate across the world the tools that will bring forth Global Unity and Harmony where there is the opportunity to financially take care of our responsibilities. May the work of Dr. King and the leaders of the African Heritage Foundation be successful in every endeavour to realise THE DREAM offered by embracing innovation and through Transmedia Brandcasting establish the model that connects us to our Kingly Heritage. AMEN Jay O'Conner Transmedia Catalyst and CEO of WCNTV.

IN CELEBRATION OF DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR LEGACY ‘CIVIL RIGHTS TO PLATINUM RIGHTS
Status: Immediate Release. January 17, 2011
By Mutumwa Mawere – Chairman (AHS) Rivonia, South Africa Led by Humanitarian “International” Goodwill Ambassador Oscar J. Webb
This day, 15 January 1929, is an important day for not only Americans but also for the people of African descent and all who live in the continent of Africa, the largest host of black people in the world.
It is a day that we should use to pause and reflect on what it means to be African. On this day, an African giant born in America was born.
We remember him for refusing to be a spectator of the events and defining issues of his time.
He understood that the values that inspired the construction and articulation of the declaration of independence and the constitution compelled his generation to redeem a promissory note or a check for justice.
This day is dedicated to Martin Luther King, Jr., a man whose life journey of 39 years helped not only Americans to listen to the whispers of tomorrow rather than the ghosts of the past but all oppressed people to recognize that change is a consequence of action.
As we celebrate the works of MLK, we are cognisant of the distance that we still have to travel to tomorrow a better and brighter day for all of God's children. I am particularly excited that our brothers ably led by Ambassador O. Webb have decided to bring to life Africa Heritage Society (AHS), an organization whose principal mission is to advance the march to the promised land where the promise inherent in the enterprise of life is made good to all without manmade barriers creating the barriers that condemns others while enabling a few.
Often we expect that the business of building a secure and prosperous future is someone else's business. MLK taught us that the future is and ought to be the business of all.
He taught us the urgency of acting now instead of tomorrow. He gave the weak the strength to soldier on.
Notwithstanding the condition of the people of African heritage continues to challenge the conscience of all yet we have the responsibility to rebrand ourselves for the sake of those who will come after us.
As an African, I am acutely aware that without organization we have no hope to connect the missing dotes in our story as a people whose past left indelible marks of pain, insecurity and more significantly lack of confidence to scale the heights of the opportunity ladder.
We are encouraged that through the platform of AHS we will be able to create a new bank of hope to inspire the African family to realize that we are as strong as our weakest link and unless we pull together we may have few points of light but we will not escape as a people from darkness.
We need to know each other and create new bridges to connect ourselves so that we can lift the majority who remain in the valley because the few who have made it think that they can push the ladder off and remain secure.
MLK was a civil rights icon but in this century that has been dubbed the African Century, we need to identity and profile our platinum rights superstars, icons and legends.
The whispers of tomorrow have to speak to the need for us to improve our literacy about the kind of issues that help advance our cause as a people.
Such conversations can only take place if we are organized. AHS is one of many not‐for‐profit organizations that can and should promote dialogue and progress.
We are encouraged that the call for building institutions to serve us has been answered. So when I next visit America, I look forward as many of my fellow members to connect with our brothers and sisters in the country of the brave.
The only power we have as a people who have been historically marginalized is the power to organize.
Our strength can only be located in our organization.
Please be assured that when you launch AHS‐USA we are all going to be there in spirit. We are with you as we attempt to change the content and context of our conversations.
The future belongs to builders. We are the builders and when an idea's time has come there is nothing than can stop it.
It is Heritage Time. Let us use this special window to talk about the distance travelled, lessons drawn and more importantly draw an agenda for action.
Let our actions define us and let future generations remember and enjoy the fruits of our actions and labor.
Working together we can raise the African flag and raise its status for our collective good in a competitive world where the resources that God deposited in the continent's belly should give all the African people the right wake up call to take our rightful place in the game.

First it was back in 2002 that I first had my television production experience working on a production for my clients at the Apex Museum in Atlanta who had an exhibit African American Entrepreneurs Past, Present and Future. We filmed a series of Black History Moments that I was blessed to coordinate. Later learned it was producing. What inspires me about going from Civil Rights to Platinum Rights is that there is no color on abundance.
But how do we go from consumerism to Global Captains of Industry and what does Transmedia offer, Well lets examine what Transmedia is and then unclock what it is not. And then follow the money, honey cause if I am half right there is a way to save our nation for our kids.
LETS TAKE A MOMENT TO REMEMBER HISTORY AND TAKE THE END OF BLACK HISTORY MONTH AND BEGIN THE CIVIL RIGHTS TO PLATINUM RIGHTS DECADE.
Martin Luther King Jr. Calls for Boycott Coke & Wonder Bread
APRIL 3RD 1968. MASON TEMPLE (COGIC HEADQUARTERS MEMPHIS, TENNESEE)
It will take bold action again as Martin delivered during the boycott of Coke Cola and others like Wonder Bread, however since what I will be suggesting is a new revenue stream the no one loses. Greed forget about it because what if you had access to any connection to any CXO on the planet. What would you do with it. Post your ideas on this blog.
