Emergency calls answered for the cause



With so much going on in the world, I feel that it is my journalist duty to post information that can possibly save a life. Although, this page doesn’t really go into deep detail on bullying, I do want to start to talk more about cultural experience as a black woman. I have seen many situations where people; young and old, need help and instead of getting assistance they are met with criticism. And as life progresses, I have noticed that criticism isn’t just a in-person thing, the internet has been made to be a gift and a curse.


The more apps developed, and the more websites become popular the increase of people who encounter bullying and other forms of harassment shoots through the roof. This isn’t admirable, but it has been made trendy and acceptable. Twitter beefs, Tik Tok challenges, Instagram photo bashing and Facebook wars sometimes lead to deaths and/or humiliation. Sadly, it isn’t until it is too late that people decided to connect back to the humanity, but by then we are often faced with doing car washes to help fund a funeral cost.


            I miss the early 2000’s where advertisements on voting and wrapping up were all over the television. I also miss hearing terms like, “stay sucka free” when artist and rappers talked down on being a “hater” or being dumb for clout. Those days are long gone and although, I still have hope that those times will soon return I want to help. I might not be able save the world; however I can simply share this information as a reference tool for those who may need it.  From the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline to the Rape, Sexual Assault, Abuse, and Incest National Network I hope this list is helpful. my goal is to update this as frequency as I can.

6 Fun Fashion Facts About Tali

This is the style edition of "Fun Facts" by Tali Hello there, Today, I decided to share some fun facts about myself.  Why?  Well, because I felt like it and I figured why not? so here we go... A fun yet obvious fact about me is that I love fashion, but I don't just love clothes I also love to design clothes, lingerie and jewelry,  really anything fashion related... duh. right? NO, seriously I really do. I started to design clothing in middle school with my friend and we would draw ball gowns and wedding dresses. I love unique jewelry. One thing I've noticed about myself, is that I don't like to wear the same type of jewelry with every outfit. I need to switch it up from time to time. I also don't like to have the same jewelry as everyone else. so if I buy a necklace set it is very unlikely that i will wear it when the "trend followers" where it. As a child, I learned that a blazer it everything!  My mom pasted down that "dress to im...

Allow me to re-introduce myself

BABY LET ME TELL YOU, (In my New Orleans voice)   I must admit when I first start writing this "about me" post, I froze up. It is so much easier to write about other people or do research on a current events than it is to write about yourself. Perhaps life has truly humbled me. Often I found myself in a battle of deciding what is important to say and if this sounds professional-- ultimately, I've questioned myself "is it perfect?" I've written articles, stories, Q&A's and plenty of paragraphs about myself and nothing has honestly seemed right.  However, I am learning that it doesn't have to be perfect the first time around and I am affirming that everything will fall into place. "Faith is taking the first step, even when you don't see the whole staircase." Hi, I'm Tali Payne and this is website is my re-entrance into the world of writing and broadcast. This site has been an on-and-off thing for over 10 year, I...
