I have fallen behind on my Reverb 10 posts, but I am going to do better. The reflection for today talks about community.
December 7 – Community Prompt: Community. Where have you discovered community, online or otherwise, in 2010? What community would you like to join, create or more deeply connect with in 2011?
During this year I have discovered public relations professionals have built multiple online communities that was created with the intention of providing a helping hand to job seekers, students, young and veteran professionals connect and learn from each other. This year the PR community has given me support, laughter, and knowledge. It is a true example of what a community should be; a group or family looking out for each other without a thought and without seeking any thanks in return.
In 2011, I hope to continue to become more deeply connected with the PR community and with the Nigerian community as well. I say that because growing up I was running away from my culture because of being teased. But as I have gotten older, I feel like I have a duty to connect with the Nigerian community as a way to preserve my family history.
