Filmmaker Keith Beauchamp Gives A Voice to Civil Rights Era Victims
Santa Monica, CA (BlackNews.com) – Keith Beauchamp describes it as a calling of the divine kind. Even non-believers are apt to side with the filmmaker that his passion for righting the wrongs of generation-old civil rights cases is far more than an artsy undertaking from an ambitious auteur.
At 37, Beauchamp has become known as a sort of criminal investigator with a camera, having helped blow open the tight-lipped case of Emmett Till’s brutal murder that occurred some 53 years ago. Beauchamp spent nine years uncovering and piecing together that complicated puzzle, and now he’s embarking on a similar journey with Murder In Black & White, a series of four one-hour documentaries examining civil rights murders in the 1940s and 1950s produced for TV One. The documentaries will air on TV One October 5-8 at 10 PM ET.
October is National Dental Hygiene Month
African American Celebrity Dentist Dr. Catrise Austin Encourages A Dental Visit This Month!
New York, NY (BlackNews.com) – October is National Dental Hygiene Month, a time for all consumers to reconsider their oral health habits, and to consider enhancing their smiles through cosmetic dentistry by visiting their dentist.
Today’s dental hygienists no longer solely clean patients’ teeth. A contemporary hygienist is responsible for detecting oral cancer, examining cracked crowns, and promoting the benefits of cosmetic dentistry to the patient before the dentist ever looks in the mouth. Dr. Catrise Austin of VIP Smiles located in New York City has a trained staff that goes the extra mile when it comes to dental hygiene and is always ready to serve not only her clients, but the community at large by speaking to the public about oral health and the importance of a beautiful smile. Dr. Austin says, "One of secrets to having a smile like the stars is to have a clean, healthy looking smile."

Victory
Victory by Sheila Bronner,
Editor-in-Chief of Upscale Magazine.
Victory. It is a big word with an even bigger meaning. According to Merriam-Webster, it means: "Achievement of mastery or success in a struggle or endeavor against odds or difficulties." It speaks to life’s challenges and more important, it speaks to the strength that we pull on to overcome them. For me, it is by grace that I have made it thus far.
