#Humanitarian Keynote Speaker

[grits-galraisedinthesouth]

"Don't hate the player, hate the game." Maybe we should hate both. There's padding a resume but then there's a work of fiction which is what Meghan Markle is determined to pass off as her professional bio. Grab your sick bucket🤢 before examining more proof that this vile woman can't tell THE TRUTH even if her life depends on it. There simply aren't enough pinocchios in the world to highlight these lies.

🤥"Accomplished writer"

🤥Fashion "The Meghan Effect causes items to sell out." (She had the nerve to include the op-ed she purchased for the mythcarriage) "spiked conversation surrounding miscarriage to the 🤥highest it had been spoken of in over two decades at the time of publishing🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️."

🤥Highly celebrated children's book

Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex, Keynote Speaker | Harry Walker Agency

Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex is a 🤥feminist🤥, champion of 🤥human rights and gender equity, and global🤥 role model. Her lifelong🤥 advocacy for women and girls remains a constant thread she weaves through both humanitarian 🤥and business ventures. She is noted as one of the most 🤥powerful and influential women in the world, topping lists such as TIME Magazine’s Most Influential People, The Financial Times’ 25 Most Influential Women, Variety Power of Women, and British Vogue’s Vogue 25🤥. 

This is just gross. A global role model🤢 one of the most iconic figures of this generation 🤢🤢🤢

She and her husband, Prince Harry have also been the recipients of the NAACP President’s Award as well as the Robert F. Kennedy Ripple of Hope Award. Meghan’s global impact🤥, and strong stance on resilience, equality, and compassion🤥 through action, have made her one of the most iconic 🤥public figures of this generation.

Born and raised in Southern California, Meghan attended Los Angeles based all-girls Catholic School, Immaculate Heart, which she continues to support as an alumna, 🤥before moving to Chicago to attend the 🤥prestigious Northwestern University. While there, she 🤥double majored in Theater and International Relations, and went on to 🤥intern at the US Embassy in Buenos Aires, Argentina, as well as to study abroad in Madrid, Spain. After graduation, Meghan turned her focus to the entertainment industry, landing her big break as a 🤥lead actor on the hit series, ‘Suits’ which she starred in for seven seasons. During her time off🤥 between filming, Meghan travelled to Rwanda, India, and across the globe 🤥working on humanitarian missions, and serving in 🤥key roles such as: UN Women’s Advocate for Women’s Political Participation and Leadership, a World Vision Global Ambassador, and a leading Counsellor to One Young World, where she inspired 🤥youth and women around the world through her passionate advocacy and 🤥hands-on approach to being of service. She also travelled to support the military community on a USO Tour, visiting six military bases in seven days including Bagram, Afghanistan.

In 2018, Meghan married Prince Harry, becoming The Duchess of Sussex.

🤥An accomplished writer, she has contributed pieces to publications (tabloids🙄) in the UK, US, and Ireland, and parlayed that skill into the creation of the successful lifestyle website, ‘The Tig’, where her thoughtful and🤥 inspiring op-eds cultivated a😂 global fanbase. The Duchess of Sussex was the first guest editor in the history of British Vogue for their July Issue in 2019, which was the fastest selling copy in the history of the publication.

She and Prince Harry founded The Archewell Foundation in 2020 to support communities in need at a micro and macro level, in both moments of crisis as well as for long term aid. At The Archewell Foundation, they hold the value that charitable work should not simply be ‘a handout, but rather a hand held’, 🤥a phrase which Meghan first coined when supporting UK charity Smart Works, of which she is patron, that uplifts and prepares underserved women to enter the workforce. Meghan and her husband also founded and oversee production company, Archewell Productions and podcasting arm, Archewell Audio.

In 2022, Meghan launched ‘Archetypes’, 🤥a record-breaking podcast exploring the labels that try to hold women back; ‘Archetypes’ debuted at Number 1 in The US, UK, Australia, Ireland, and New Zealand, and topped the charts as the Number 1 podcast in 47 countries, demonstrating her 😂🤥unparalleled global reach. After its first season, Archetypes was awarded The People’s Choice Award in the podcast category😂.

She is a 🤥NY Times Best Selling author, publishing her highly celebrated children’s book, ‘The Bench’, and “Together: Our Community Kitchen” a publication she spearheaded with the women of the Hubb Community Kitchen in the UK, who were displaced after the tragic Grenfell Fire. True to her character, The Duchess of Sussex mobilized to turn pain into purpose🤢, working alongside🤥 this dynamic group of women to help them heal, grow, and develop their own business enterprises in the face of adversity. In addition to 🤥topping the NY Times Bestsellers list, “Together,” also debuted as number one on the UK’s Sunday Booklist, with proceeds going to the Kitchen.

Meghan’s influence in fashion has been coined🤥 “The Meghan Effect” with items selling out within hours of her wearing them. 🤥Her ‘effect’ has transcended fashion, 🤥shifting cultural conversations as seen with her op-ed for the NY Times “The Losses We Share.🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥” The piece detailed a heartbreaking personal loss 🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥which spiked the conversation surrounding miscarriage to 🤥the highest it had been spoken of in over two decades at the time of publishing🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥. 

Meghan is a 🤥passionate advocate for mental health 🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥and family care🤥🤥🤥🤥, the holistic support of women and children’s rights🤥, and the immeasurable value of one’s self worth🤥. Her core belief that representation matters🤪, and her connection to community through the lens of learning🤥, healing🤥, and inspiring🤥 have helped define her as a 🤥cultural catalyst for 🤥positive change.  

Look at how dumb the kids names look with titles🤡🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️ They sound like cartoon characters.

Meghan resides in California with her husband and their children Prince Archie Harrison and Princess Lilibet Diana, and their three dogs.

Someone told her this is her "Beyonce" photo. Most likely it was Thirsty Tyler Perry 😂🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️

Speaker Johnson Faults Harris Over 32K Missing Migrant Kids

Seizing on a Biden administration report issued Tuesday that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) lost track of tens of thousands of unaccompanied migrant children, House Republicans tore into border czar Kamala Harris over the "humanitarian catastrophe" and said she "cannot be trusted to fix it."

Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and other GOP leaders quickly responded to Tuesday's report by the internal watchdog for the Department of Homeland Security that said in the past five years, more than 32,000 unaccompanied migrant children failed to report for their immigration court hearing and that ICE was "not able to account" for their whereabouts.

"The southern border is a national security disaster and a humanitarian catastrophe, and Kamala Harris cannot be trusted to fix it," Johnson said on a press call, The Hill reported. "It is on her watch that all this has happened."

Johnson, joined on the call by House Homeland Security Committee Chair Mark Green, R-Tenn., and House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, placed blame at the door of Harris, the Democrat nominee for president and border czar in President Joe Biden's administration.

Republicans were not thrilled with speeches made by Democrats about the border, including Biden, on Day 1 of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. In his keynote speech that bled into Tuesday morning, Biden dared to go on the offensive about border policy, one that has seen more than 10 million illegals enter the country on his watch.

"Their speeches are full of fantasy and not facts," Johnson said, according to The Hill. "This is the largest gaslighting operation in the history of American politics."

CSOs, others move to protect Mbah’s mandate in Enugu

Civil Society Organisations, CSOs and other stakeholders in Enugu State yesterday launched a mandate protection movement for the Governor-Elect of Enugu State, Barr Peter Mbah, who contested and won the 2023 guber poll under the platform of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP). The move was initiated by leading CSOs and attracted the interest of several pressure groups, professional associations, religious entities, and youth and women pro-democracy networks among others. They officially launched the “Mbah Mandate Movement, “M3GROUP” aimed at driving widespread advocacies and leading civic actions to safeguard the mandate of Peter Mbah against all forms of existing and potential threats or distractions. Speaking on the movement, the Convener and Lead Speaker of the group, Comrade Kennedy Iyere, disclosed that, the need to defend the mandate of Peter Mbah is critical to the rapid development of Enugu State. He affirmed that Peter Mbah administration will engender a responsible government whose priority is to accelerate social and economic development for the sustainable well-being of Enugu State and its people. “The stakeholders who initiated this project believe that Barr Peter Mbah deserved the victory he got at the polls on the 18th March, 2023. They affirmed that he was the best among the key contestants. “Tell me who else, if not Peter Mbah, his records of past performances have made him the most acceptable among the three key persons who contested for the 2023 Enugu guber seat. His victory was well deserved and the results of the polls reflected the will of the people. Look at his achievements in the private sector where he distinguished himself, as a pacesetter. “His Pinnacle Oil and Gas proudly has over 8000 employees. His Peter Mbah Foundation has shown compassion to thousands of persons through various humanitarian interventions. Among other contestants, show me anyone of them who has such an enviable legacy. “Mbah has come to serve and to move Enugu State to its next realm of development and Ndi Enugu are aware of this. Therefore, those who are making efforts to distract his focus are hereby advised to distance themselves from him. This is the reason stakeholders have gathered today to launch the Mbah Mandate Movement, also known as M3GROUP, in its short form. It is a widespread advocacy group whose aim is to safeguard the mandate of Peter Mbah”, Iyere declared. Stakeholders at the event thanked Ndi Enugu for giving their votes and their mandate to Peter Mbah. They assured Ndi Enugu and Nigerians at large that Peter Mbah remains the best and safest hand Enugu needs at this point as Governor. They appealed to the conscience of all stakeholders and further reminded them of the need to prioritize the well-being of Ndi Enugu above other personal or collective interests. They said that the prioritization of the well-being of Ndi Enugu is the primary reason Peter Mbah has volunteered to serve as Governor. They appealed for the support of everyone and also cautioned against distractions. It is worthy to indicate that Prof Chris Nwaokobia, was the keynote speaker at the event. He is a major ally of Peter Obi and one of the key leaders of the Obidient Movement. Prof Nwaokobia said Peter Mbah won the support of the “Obidients” because he has the ingredients they want to see in the Governor they desire for a new Nigeria. Also, popular Nollywood Actress, Patience Ozokwo (Mama G), who is also a known figure in the “Obidient Movement” shared the same opinion with Prof Chris Nwaokobia. According to Mama G, Peter Mbah possesses the Character, Competency and Capacity which will make him the best Governor to ever lead Enugu State. Several others who spoke at the event also aligned themselves with the views of Prof Nwaokobia and Patience Ozokwo. Various and different interest groups attended the event. Scores of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) participated and they were led by Enugu Network of Civil Society Organizations. Several groups attended the event, including NBA, NUJ, PCRC, the Obidient Movement, NCFront, IPAC, CNPP, CRPP, TMG, League of Women Voters etc. Different youth and women groups, student organizations, religious entities and Artisan networks were among the participants. The stakeholders however pledged their commitment towards safeguarding the mandate of Peter Mbah and have aligned themselves with the Mbah Mandate Movement (M3GROUP), as a vehicle for the same purpose.

American Women Entrepreneurs

In the United States, the number of women entrepreneurs is increasing. In reality, since 1997, the number of women-run companies has climbed by 5%.

The inspiring life narrative of J.K. Rowling demonstrates that everyone can succeed. She has become a global humanitarian in addition to a celebrity and wealth: an English author and director, J.K. Rowling. More than 450 million copies of her book Harry Potter have been sold globally. It has surpassed all other film series in terms of box office success. But it wasn't an easy road to this triumph.

Rowling faced several difficulties on the road. Oxford turned her down after completing her studies at the University of Exeter. Rowling came up with the concept for the first book in the Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone series while waiting for a train in 1990.

She was a poor single mother reliant on social handouts at the time. In Portugal, Rowling first met her husband, Jorge Arantes. But after only eleven months, they broke up. Their split caused JK a lot of distress. She eventually filed for divorce a few years later. She had a young daughter at the time. This hampered her ability to balance her profession and family.

Indian industrialist Sminu Jindal is a first-time participant. She has a history of making her company an industry leader and has shattered the glass barrier in several industries, including the oil and gas sector. She received an award for excellence as the top female entrepreneur in India from the esteemed Institute of Marketing and Management, New Delhi, as a testament to her business acumen.

She has led the initiative in establishing Svayam, a nonprofit organization, in addition to her position at Jindal. This effort attempts to improve accessibility for those with limited mobility to public infrastructure. It is specifically intended to help people with impairments so they can participate in society.

She was one of the 16 keynote presenters at the EO Global Leadership Conference and chaired the Assocham National Council on Iron and Steel. At the conference, Jindal discussed her organization's progress in solving the accessibility issue and urged everyone to grab the reins and contribute to the drive to create a more inclusive world.

American neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor is also a well-known public speaker, best-selling author, and member of the TED Speakers Bureau. She is also an active supporter of neurological healing and a philanthropist.

A Brain Scientist's Journey was published in 2006. An autobiographical account of her eight-year rehabilitation from a stroke, the book is written by the author. The New York Times named it a "Best Book, " a best seller that went 63 weeks on the bestseller list.

Her other achievements include speaking at the TED Conference in February 2008 and giving a TED lecture that same year. The TED conference and the TED lecture attracted much media attention and were heavily trafficked online. Millions of people attended the TED Conference, and over 27 million individuals watched the TED speech. An 18-minute video by brain scientist Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor on her experience with a significant stroke was the most-watched talk at the TED conference.

Employment law is a specialty of Jennifer Duggan's. She has represented and defended employers in employment litigation for almost 20 years. She has assisted her clients in resolving PAGA claims, wage and hour class actions, and discrimination claims. Her firm has also effectively protected people from employment litigation based on torts and retaliation.

The firm's practice areas are centered on reducing lawsuit risk and addressing personnel issues early on. Duggan's team works closely with their clients to ensure they are protected against the dangers of employment disputes using their considerable understanding of business and employment law. They have successfully represented employers in employment cases by applying their in-depth legal knowledge and obtained several advantageous settlements for their clients.

Duggan advises various groups in addition to her focus on employment law. Her main goal is to assist women in improving their quality of life and achieving professional success. She founded the PALM BEACH Woman magazine and is also active in several other projects.

(via Dr Imtiaz Sooliman | Inspirational Humanitarian Speaker)

Dr Imtiaz Sooliman is the founder of Gift of the Givers an International NPO from South africa that assist relief situations around the world.

He attended Sastri College in Durban and matriculated in 1978, going on to study medicine at the University of KwaZulu-Natal's Medical School, qualifying as a medical doctor in 1984.

Dr Sooliman commenced private practice in Pietermaritzburg in 1986, but chose to close his flourishing practice in mid-1994, choosing instead to focus his attention on Gift of the Givers Foundation, which he had founded in early August 1992.

His establishment of Gift of the Givers Foundation was the consequence of a message Dr Sooliman, then aged 30, received from Sufi Sheikh Muhammed Saffer Effendi al Jerrahi, his spiritual leader in Istanbul, Turkey, who called on him to serve all people of all races, of all religions, of all colours, of all classes, of all political affiliations and of any geographical location... a calling he honoured then and continues to honour today.

Pssst, how is Harry going to give an address at the UN when it’s not even in session and won't be until September?

Someone on Twitter found an example of a standard plenary meeting. It seems very likely that Harry is not THE keynote speaker, but one of many, with roughly a 5 minute slot.

https://twitter.com/christensen_mre/status/1547190331732549640?s=21&t=D551BwLwIIMKAd53JU5ZmA

Well this is embarrassing. I can't believe Harry's PR team is giving him the same treatment they gave Meghan when trying to create her faux humanitarian persona. He really is scraping the bottom of the barrel.
