Ava,

I disagree, I don't think Gina is “unnecessarily cocky.” Her personality is fine with me.

Thanks Markus for a great interview with Gina. She is an amazing and authentic person. I am inspired by her efforts and commitment to speaking her truth. The following passage from the interview moved me the most:

“Yes, but I am learning and growing and part of having the power that people THINK I have is being a good steward of that power. Part of having the gift to move people with my words is recognizing that anything in excess can be too much. Part of having all these people gather around me, is recognizing that they aren’t gathering around Gina, they are gathering about the gift. Part of having my own share of criticism and vitriol lobbed my way had taught me to have compassion for other people.”

Dear Sistalove Gina,

Keep doing your work according to how you have been called. That’s all that matters.

Peace and Joy,

Ananda

Gina McCauley is a joke as far as “social media expert” is concerned. Just because you know how to log onto Blogspot or change out a wordpress theme doesn’t make you an expert. Her conference taught people just as much (logging into Blogspot). She needs to get her weight up before she goes around being cocky and arrogant, as Ava pointed out.

Great feature Black Web 2.0. I am definitely inspired by Gina and all she does. Gina is a force to be reckoned with and like Markus said — not everyone agrees with everything she does — BUT she is doing SOMETHING and learning and building as she goes. Just to think how she put together a successful conference (by herself) and had great sponsors and participants when nothing for us was out there is something that should be applauded.

And thanks Gina for the shout-out. Passing along knowledge and know-how is a something everyone should do, especially in our community. It’s so much easier to gain success when you have others helping you and rooting for you to get there. Again, if you ever need something please know I am a email or call away sis.

xoxo, Dede

My favorite statement —> Everybody has a different tactic. We can’t all be the state department. Somebody has to be the Pentagon.
