About   (request update)
My Interview Question
Do you think an HBCU education is inferior to that of a main stream college?
Current Whereabouts:
I am the owner of two business, Wellness to go, and Barnes Associates. They are medical companies with WTG specializing in Adult Immunizations, CPR, Health Screening, Physicals and educational workshops. Barnes is a medical supply company specializing in diabetic shoes and compression stockings. I also have a column in the local "Black" newspaper called HBCU Scoreboard where I keep this population (Arizona) informed about the HBCU experience. I have personally recruited 8 student-athletes to Fayetteville State University.
Education   (request update)
Fayetteville State University class of 1977

Claim To Fame:
Charter member of the "Bronco Express Marching Band. Turned out the 1973 freshmen talent show with other band members by playing "Funky stuff" and "Jungle Boogie" by Kool and the Gang and "Fence Walk" by Mandrill.
Most Memorable Moment:
My one man probate show which I finished by playing Earth, Wind and Fires' Drum Song on my Kalimba. The standing room only crowd went crazy, my Kappa big brothers loved it, and it started a string of the Nupes winning the Block five lines in a row
High School: John F. Kennedy in Richmond, VA class of 1973
 
Activities & Accomplishments:
Marching Band, arranged the school's fight song. Arranged the theme from Shaft. Press box solo Kool and the Gang's Chocolate Buttermilk.
Best Memories:
Marching in the Armstrong-Walker Football Classic before 25,000 people. I wanted to be a mighty Green Dragon (Walker) but because of bussing was sent to JFK. I marched in the Wildcat band against all of my principles and we won the Battle of the Bands that year
