One of the best indications that Kansas City started as a river town was the placement of its first two city halls.

Both were located on Main Street between 4th Street and 5th Streets, just a few blocks from the Missouri River.

While the first one, built in 1853, was fairly plain, its successor arrived in 1882 with considerably more visual flair. It was six stories tall and marked by architectural flourishes that led building historian George Ehrlich to describe it as “fussy."

PROOF

Ohhhhh ohhh ohhhh
Ohhhhh ohhh ohhhh
There’s never been a problem
God couldn’t solve
If you ask David he’ll tell you Giants Fall
I met a woman in the hospital and the doctors did all they could do
She’s still alive to tell you
He does miracles & I’m proof
Of what God can do
He does miracles
I’m proof of what God can do

He’s the God of miracles, the God of the impossible
He speaks and mountains have to move
There’s no limit to His power, He’s faithful every hour So if you need a miracle,
I’m Proof

When the waters rise and the storms rage on
He’s the peace that carries you through the dawn
When the road is dark and you’ve lost your way
He’s the light that turns your night to day

He’s the God of miracles, the God of the impossible
He speaks and mountains have to move
There’s no limit to His power, He’s faithful every hour So if you need a miracle,
I’m Proof

If you need to see a miracle
Here I Go
If you need to see a miracle
Here I Go
If you need to see a miracle
Here I Go
If you need to see a miracle
Here I Go
If you need to see a miracle
Here I Go
If you need to see a miracle
Here I Go
If you need to see a miracle
Here I Go
I’m alive I’ll testify and say it
Here I Go

The guardians of nature. The protectors of humanity. The rise of a new empire. #godzillaxkong - Only in Theaters March 29.

The epic battle continues! Legendary Pictures’ cinematic Monsterverse follows up the explosive showdown of “Godzilla vs. Kong” with an all-new adventure that pits the almighty Kong and the fearsome Godzilla against a colossal undiscovered threat hidden within our world, challenging their very existence—and our own. “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” delves further into the histories of these Titans and their origins, as well as the mysteries of Skull Island and beyond, while uncovering the mythic battle that helped forge these extraordinary beings and tied them to humankind forever.

Once again at the helm is director Adam Wingard.

The screenplay is by Terry Rossio (“Godzilla vs. Kong” the “Pirates of the Caribbean” series) and Simon Barrett (“You’re Next”) and Jeremy Slater (“Moon Knight”), from a story by Rossio & Wingard & Barrett, based on the character “Godzilla” owned and created by TOHO Co., Ltd. The film is produced by Mary Parent, Alex Garcia, Eric Mcleod, Thomas Tull and Brian Rogers. The executive producers are Wingard, Jen Conroy, Jay Ashenfelter, Yoshimitsu Banno, Kenji Okuhira.

Once again, Wingard is collaborating with director of photography Ben Seresin (“Godzilla vs. Kong,” “World War Z”), production designer Tom Hammock (“Godzilla vs. Kong,” “X,” “The Guest”), editor Josh Schaeffer (“Godzilla vs. Kong,” “Molly’s Game”), costume designer Emily Seresin (“The Invisible Man,” “Top of the Lake”). The composers are Tom Holkenborg (“Godzilla vs. Kong,” “Mad Max: Fury Road”) and Antonio Di Iorio (additional music on “Godzilla vs. Kong,” the “Sonic the Hedgehog” films).

Kansas City-area program connects youth to jobs and opportunity

There's a whole lot of talk about diversity and inclusion at Silicon Valley tech companies, but retention is missing from that conversation, says Anthony Frasier, the CEO of a New Jersey-based multicultural branded podcast network. 

Frasier is the entrepreneur-in-residence with Newark Venture Partners, and CEO of ABF Creative.

He was a speaker at the 2017 Black Enterprise TechConneXt Summit, interviewing Chief Equality Officer Tony Prophet from Silicon Valley-based cloud computing company Salesforce, and then leading a roundtable panel discussion afterward.

"It was really about going beyond the bullet points on how to solve tech's diversity problems ... and figuring out what's really going on and why we're bleeding so much black and multicultural talent out of these tech companies," Frasier said.

Moguldom caught up with Frasier at the summit. "Thank God we live now in a culture that's embracing other locations," Frasier said. "I'm glad about the progress in that area."

We've read stats showing that Blacks have a buying power of $1.2 Trillion dollars and that Black women are starting businesses at a faster rate than any other group, but is this enough to change the economic inequalities that plague Black neighborhoods? Mandy Bowman discusses how it's time to focus on creating and supporting Black businesses to build long term/generational wealth.

Mandy Bowman is the Founder of Official Black Wall Street and the Social Media Manager at Essence Magazine. With a deep-rooted passion for all things social media, entrepreneurship, and Black culture, Mandy has worked tirelessly to empower and support Black entrepreneurs through her digital platform and Black business directory, Official Black Wall Street. When she isn't working to fuel Black businesses through the Official Black Wall Street platform, she is volunteering as a mentor to inner city students and creating social strategies.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
