We are proud to celebrate another successful PowervUpvUSA Learn 2 Earn graduation! This group was recruited with support from Charlotte City Councilwoman Renee Perkins Johnson, Council District 4, and Triumph Services, as part of our commitment to ensuring people with disabilities in our city have greater access to technology, digital skills, and workforce opportunities.

Early in the program, however, we realized our traditional training model wasn't meeting every participant's needs. We listened—and we pivoted.

We incorporated Reasonable Accommodations and Assistive Technology (AT) tools into the curriculum and adjusted how we delivered the training.

The transformation was powerful.

A special thank you to disability advocate Judith Elise Brown and Maria Paula Cepeda, Mecklenburg County Program Coordinator for Age Friendly, for joining us and encouraging our students as they pursue their workforce development goals. Having advocates and community leaders remind participants that their talents, abilities, and goals matter is an important part of the journey.

Access. Accommodation. Empowerment. Workforce Opportunity.

Day 2 at the Martha's Vineyard African American Film Festival (MVAAFF) was another inspiring day filled with powerful storytelling and meaningful conversations.

I had the opportunity to watch the outstanding film "Soul Patrol," followed by an engaging panel discussion featuring Director J.M. Harper, Former U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, and moderator Dr. Henry Louis Gates Jr. Their conversation highlighted the importance of preserving history, amplifying untold stories, and using film as a catalyst for change.

The day continued at the Lincoln Lounge, where I enjoyed hearing from content creators, filmmakers, and industry leaders sharing their experiences, insights, and vision for the future of storytelling.

I'm leaving each session with fresh inspiration and new ideas that will help shape the future of the Charlotte Black Film Festival.

Congratulations to the amazing graduates from the Bettie Rae Recreation Center in Charlotte, NC. These inspiring seniors, participants in the Mecklenburg County Nutrition Program, embraced the opportunity to strengthen their digital skills and prepare for today's technology-driven world.

Today, I want to take a moment to honor and thank Mayor Vi Lyles for her years of service, leadership, and commitment to the City of Charlotte.

Mayor Lyles has been more than a public official; she has been a leader who showed up for the community. I am grateful for the support she has shown to the Charlotte Black Film Festival, Power Up USA, and the many community conversations held at the Power Up USA Creative Studios.

Her presence at our events reminded us that arts, culture, youth development, and community empowerment are important parts of Charlotte’s future. She has led with grace, strength, and a genuine heart for people.

As she leaves office today, we say thank you for your service, your example, and your investment in our city. Your legacy will continue through the people and communities you have touched.

Thank you, Mayor Vi Lyles. Charlotte is better because of your leadership.
