HONORABLE CARROLL G. ROBINSON, ESQ: “Freedom for Black people once meant freedom from slavery; the ability to pursue our God-given rights and to participate fully in the rights, privileges, immunities and due process of citizenship and the benefits of the American Dream as described by Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in his speech at the March on Washington.
Freedom is an ongoing struggle to:
• protect our Civil and Voting Rights;
• secure economic equality for Black people in America;
• end discrimination based on race, gender and sexual orientation; and
• reform the criminal justice system to end sentencing disparities, the school to prison pipeline, better protect our children (and us) from violence (guns and tasters) at the hands of law enforcement and provide people who have gone through the system with a second chance.
As the old saying goes, "Freedom ain't free." People aren't going to do for Black people what we won't do for ourselves.
Freedom requires vigilance, hard work, foresight and a continuing commitment to community, educational achievement, prosperity, and adopting-mastering, mobilizing and utilizing-"Forces of Change" like Artificial Intelligence (AI) to better protect and
advance our interests.
Freedom is, as the Congressional Black Caucus founders told us, built on "permanent interests." Our interests must be a better Texas and a more inclusive nation for all of us.”

HOUSTON BUSINESS CONNECTIONS NEWSPAPER© IS A TRUSTED NON-PARTISAN BRANDING AND MOBILIZATION TOOL
In case you don’t remember, in a head-to-head “ENDORSEMENT SHOWDOWN” candidates endorsed by a “select group” of Houston Business Connections Newspaper© readers performed significantly better than those endorsed by the Houston Chronicle editorial board back in the Tuesday, November 8, 2016, Presidential Election as Democrat rolled to historic countywide victories over their Republicans counterparts in what, at the time, was the worst defeat ever for the Harris County Republican Party in its 71-year history.
HOUSTON BUSINESS CONNECTIONS NEWSPAPER© READERS SUPPORT CANDIDATES WHO VALUE THEIR VOTE
As a refresher, there were sixty-seven (67) races where a “select group” of Houston Business Connections Newspaper© readers went head-to-head against the Houston Chronicle editorial board. Fifty-one (51) of the sixty-seven (67) candidates endorsed by Houston Business Connections Newspaper© (in the head-to-head contest) back in the 2016 Presidential Election won their respective races on election night. By contrast, only thirty-eight (38) of the sixty-seven (67) candidates endorsed by the Houston Chronicle editorial board (in these key races) won their respective races back on Tuesday, November 8, 2016, in the Presidential Election as it relates specifically to Harris County, Texas.
