Who are Keith and Pamela Owens?
Keith is a native of Denver, Colorado, and is an award-winning journalist, a musician who has performed locally and written several songs, a published author of several fiction books, the founder of a Detroit-focused futuristic quarterly magazine, Detroit Stories Quarterly, and a cultural critic.
Pamela Hilliard Owens is a native of Detroit, Michigan, an educator, a solopreneur, a business coach, an online trainer, an award-winning public speaker, a published author of nonfiction business books, and a creative business owner.
Keith and Pamela currently live in a large 106-year-old historic home with their little Shorkie, “Pepper.”
Keith and Pamela have been married since 1998 and business partners since 2007. They bring all of those experiences and expertise to the articles they publish in this newsletter.
Keith and Pamela have a beautiful blended family with a total of six children and two grandchildren.
Keith and Pamela are proud liberal and progressive Democrats, but they also believe in (small “d”) democracy for all, especially through the 14th amendment which SHOULD guarantee equal rights for ALL. They believe that the Constitution is the law of this land, not the Bible or any other religious book or religion.
Keith and Pamela write and broadcast in this publication to discuss their views of politics, American history, and American government from a Black American Liberal’s point of view, and to separate these opinions from our career employment and other businesses.
