NYC Mayor Eric Adams and 500 Men Making A Difference 

Born from an idea Mayor Adams had over a decade ago of patronizing small businesses while creating an environment of collaboration and brought to life by 500 Men Making A Difference, the gathering is a community-building initiative geared toward bringing together impactful organizations and the men of the city to work together to provide top tier mentoring, internships, programs and opportunities for young Black and Brown men of NYC.

In its 10-year history, the BMB has mentored more than 200 young men, spent more than $30,000 at local establishments and helped form meaningful bonds between men of all ages. The topics discussed range from education, finance and investment, mental health and wellness, and the future of tech in NYC.

“We’ve stumbled onto a village of men that care about these communities … this city, and we are seeing how working together we can do great things.” — Cyriac St Vil, Vice president, 500 Men Making A Difference, and Coordinator/Host of the BMB

Collaborative skills have never been more important to a company’s success and these skills are essential for every worker today. https://www.radicalcollaboration.com/home/jim-tamm/

Radical Collaboration is a how-to-manual for creating trusting, cooperative environments, and transforming groups into motivated and empowered teams. James W. Tamm and Ronald J. Luyet provide tools that will help you increase your ability to work successfully with others, learn to be more aware of colleagues, and better problem-solve and negotiate.

Radical Collaboration is an eye-opener for leaders, managers, HR professionals, agents, trainers, and consultants who are seeking constructive ways of getting the results they want.

Praise for Radical Collaboration

This book opened my eyes and has given me the tools to collaborate with a clear head. The first section of the book identifies the signs you are becoming defensive, the second part elaborates and helps you explore your subconscious to discover why you are really becoming defensive. It has become easy for me to identify when my response to a situation is irrational due to all of my underlying insecurities weighing in. The book also does a great job pointing out your flaws without making you dwell on the past, it has the intention of exciting you to do better in the future. The last part of the book helps you with techniques for effective collaboration. I recommend this book to everyone, I think it will add value to anyone’s life. ―Reader Synopsis

I am a psychotherapist, and not only have I found this book to be an excellent summation of ways to help improve ALL relationships, but it has also become a good tool I use as I go through the book with my clients. Want to have better relationships? Figure out what your own defenses are and why you have them. Then learn how to deal with your own, and with those defenses that other people have. Then with an increased sense of safety, openness becomes much easier. This is a very well written, easy to read pathway to improved relationships. What could be more valuable? ―Reader Synopsis

Ask Your Mama Returns to New York in Special Collaboration with
Harlem’s Apollo Theater and Manhattan School of Music,
March 23, 2013

Original Cast Including Jessye Norman and The Roots to Perform with
Manhattan School of Music Chamber Sinfonia Under the Direction of George Manahan

Jazz Vocalist Nnenna Freelon Joins the Cast

New York, NY, August 9, 2012—The Apollo Theater and Manhattan School of Music will join forces to present Ask Your Mama, a 90-minute sonic tapestry of music, film, and spoken word by EmmyAward- winning composer Laura Karpman based on Langston Hughes’s “Ask Your Mama: 12 Moods for Jazz” that bursts the boundaries of time, place, and verbal expression to trace the currents and tributaries of cultural diasporas. The performance will take place at Harlem’s famed Apollo Theater on March 23, 2013, and will feature the Manhattan School of Music Chamber Sinfonia conducted by George Manahan, who also conducted the sold-out world premiere at Carnegie Hall and a subsequent performance at the Hollywood Bowl. Soprano Jessye Norman will lead an all-star cast that includes The Roots with ?uestlove, Black Thought, and Nnenna Freelon.

Langston Hughes conceived his 1961 epic “Ask Your Mama: 12 Moods for Jazz” as an interdisciplinary creation, including in the margins suggestions for types of music including hot jazz, German lieder, cha-cha, patriotic songs, post-bop, and Middle Eastern, as well as specific songs like “When the Saints Go Marching In” and “Battle Hymn of the Republic,” all of which he meant to accompany his words. Karpman’s composition brings these imaginings to life, combining Hughes’ language with sounds that come together to evoke the turbulent flux and flow of American cultural life, making the fifty-year old text startlingly current. Sold out debut performances of the work at Carnegie Hall in 2009 were a critical success.
Tickets are $35, $55, $75 and $125 (VIP Tickets) and will go on sale Monday, Nov 19th at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster.
