CONTACT: Los Angeles, CA (BlackNews.com) - 'Move Over Myspace!' is the low rumble that continues to repeat in certain powerful circles, as more and more Black women are clicking on www.richblackgirls.com instead of Myspace.com to network. Rich Black Girls has quietly and steadily become the cornerstone for social networking among Black professional women and college students. The members are encouraged to increase their ranking in their own community and society at large, by exchanging virtual business cards, attending free seminars, receiving empowering articles, as well as online and offline meeting forums. "Black Women have been assaulted on all fronts, and we need a safe haven to regroup, to heal, to share, to survive.", Rachel Lymons explains. The membership has women in every career field imaginable: doctors, educators, lawyers, nurses, college students, real estate agents, bankers, advertising agents, computer scientists, corporate executives, engineers, journalists, lawyers, publicists, nurses, research specialists, fashion designers, jewelry designers, actresses, authors, stylists, just to name a few. Again, every field imaginable is covered in the membership database. Traci Newhart explains, "If you want to get ahead in your career, or if you simply want to just talk to women who understand your quest for self improvement and community improvement, I would encourage you to join." Ms. Newhart doesn't stop there, "I've seen women come together who would've never sat down with one another if they met face to face, because of the way this society pits us against one another, as women. This new method of networking is building bridges, and reconciling people who were not even speaking before." Shanda Sealy, the membership director, is delighted with the overwhelmingly positive response from her peers, "It is wonderful to know and realize that so many Black women are interested in improving not only their own lives, but the lives of others." Ms. Sealy further explains, "I am proud to have been chosen as the membership representative, because I have had the opportunity to network with so many powerful women." The network boasts of members who have been at the top of their class, are entrepreneurs, and who have rubbed elbows with the highest A-list celebrities on the totem pole. But what is more important to this growing networking firm is community service that the members are committing too. Shanda Sealy beams, "We have facilitators in 4 main regions, and every state has a facilitator or a member willing to commit to becoming a facilitator." Ms. Sealy further explains, "Sandria Washington is the Midwestern regional leader, Melissa Chambers is the Southern regional leader, Ashley Burgh is the Mid-atlantic leader, and ShaVaughn Morris and April Davis is the Eastern regional leader. All of which are already powerful in their own right." Each facilitator has committed to creating and fostering sisterhood, all the while empowering the community on a monthly basis. There are online forums that are hosted by Latisha Williams, Davina Brown, Christina Spriggs, Kim Holmes, Jackie Moore, Melissa Sawyer, Antonette Kirby-Adams et al, encouraging women to stay in shape, find out shopping deals, discuss issues that affect the family on a daily basis. Here are some of the powerful members' testimonies: Tashina Moore, powerful entreprenuer of a growing travel company 30 Elephants Ltd (www.30-Elephants.com), explains the membership, "I must say that as a new business owner and as a female in general, this organization has been a blessing to me. Simply talking to other like minded women who are very supportive makes my day. The organization itself has provided me with an abundance of informationto help take my business in the direction I would like to see it go.It is even in the process of taking me to different levels as far as branding goes. I look forward to what a future in the in the organization involves." Tashina Moore is a 25 year old West Indian from Toronto Canada, by way of Yokosuka, Japan. She joined the company because she is a humanitarian and a world traveler and wanted to be aligned with like minded Black women. Best selling author Beverly T. Gooden shares why she joined the network, "It has connected me to amazing, intelligent, successful women around the world. We have doctors, artists, writers, CEO's, actresses, millionaires, we've got them all. A network such as this is destined to effect society in a major way, and I look forward to it." Beverly T. Gooden is a famous author of the hit novel Confessions of a Church Girl (www.beverlyt.com). Renee McClain, accountant for high powered individuals describes why she joined the company, "Every since I have joined the network I have been amazed at the support that everyone shows each other. This network gives you a sense of belonging along with that extra confidence boost you need to get the ball rolling." Another member reveals, "Are we knocking Myspace? Absolutely not. Myspace helped me realize that I needed a networking database of our own because." Sheila Crawford chimes in, "Black women are growing tired of the random chatter that myspace has; they want to connect with peers who are progressive in their careers, as well as their personal lives. There is a difference between popularity/visibility and power. This network shows you that just because you have 100,000 friends doesn't mean that you will create lasting relationships, and it certainly doesn't mean that someone is going to buy your product all of a sudden." Rich Black Girls firmly believes that building a real sisterhood and relationship is the only way that members can gain visibility and power. "You don't have to be necessarily wealthy, but you definitely have to want to be there. I was in serious debt, but I learned about the workshops, and have called creditors, and have done the things that other sisters know but maybe it's not the setting to inform others about it. I wasn't embarrassed about my circumstance, and I kne that other sisters would help me. If you take advantage of everything that they have to offer, you will be richer the next year." Member wished to not reveal name. "This is better than any magazine that I subscribe too, because I am really not only interacting with the subscribers, I absolutely love this place." Rachel Greene of Texas explains. And she is absolutely right, members get the following benefits: The Advantage: True Networking Your Features: Membership Search About Rich Black Girls.com - Rich Black Girls.com is a networking resource center for Black women in the United States, Africa, and Europe.
