It’s my blogoversary! I have officially been blogging for three years now. Since I began blogging on February 14, 2010, it’s easy for me to remember the anniversary of Revolutionary Paideia—it’s on Valentine’s Day. Revolutionary Paideia has been tremendously successful in its three years of existence. I’ve been able to amass an unbelievable number of readers. Even early on in this blog’s history, WordPress named it “One of the Fastest Growing Blogs.” WordPress only gives this distinction to the top blogs that are attracting the most readers. I’m thankful to my readers for making the success of Revolutionary Paideia possible. If it was not for you, Revolutionary Paideia would be just one of the numerous blogs that has no readers or very few readers.
This blog has added to my success and has enabled me to create valuable new friendships and alliances.
For those who are unfamiliar with this blog, it’s a cultural commentary blog offering frequently published pieces on many diverse topics, including education, sports, literature, film, music, black culture, popular culture, self-help, and etc. I post pieces 4 to 5 times a week. For some of the other online publications I write for, take a look at my “Portfolio” page.
I want to thank one of my best friends, Santresa L. Glass, the person who gave me passionate pushes to go ahead and begin blogging. I had expressed to her my desire to start blogging, but I was striving for everything to be perfect before I would begin. Santresa would not settle for this. She persistently insisted I begin immediately. After getting tired of listening to her nag me about going ahead and launch my blog, I went ahead and launched it. Thanks for your constant nagging, Santresa!
I look forward to many more years of blogging. Revolutionary Paideia will bring you many exciting things this year and I don’t want you to miss any of them. I will continue to maintain my commitment to “unsettling, unnerving, and unhousing” you.
Again, I thank all of my readers for helping to develop Revolutionary Paideia into the great success it is today! Happy Blogoversary to Revolutionary Paideia!

*in that ‘hood’ voice, only I can do” Nag!?!? hol up, hol up, hol up. I am only kidding. You know our friendship is composed of so much and one of the best qualities is that we are NOT “yes” individuals to each other. Constantly, we push the other to “progress into our fullest potential and pour faithfully into our purpose” ~Santresa. You are an impeccable writer and talent. Your blog, Revolutionary Paideia, HAS unsettled, unnerved, and unhoused the masses; causing many to think, calling many to action, saving relationships and lives, advocating necessary truths, and opened massive opportunities for you and your readers. Soooo thank you for taking action to stroke the keys on that laptop and unleashing to the world “written truths that make us explore our gamut of emotions to build from the core of our authentic selves.” ~Santresa—— I love you, T! Happy Blogoversary and keep letting the words flow into your blog post.
Wow! Awesome response. Thank you! I appreciate you for the motivation that you gave me to go ahead and start blogging. I love you, San!
