ALL HANDS on DECK, WE, Not Me Initiative-plan-project - 190 Neighborhoods; and, over a half-million Milwaukeeans, 605,000, "Re-defining" and "Re-branding" the City of Milwaukee for true ECONOMIC ENGINE definition.

Milwaukee, WI - On July 12, 2010, Milwaukee Professionals Association (MPA) released the “Re-defining” and “Re-Branding”, ALL HANDS on DECK, WE, Not Me Initiative-plan-project. On February 10, 2011, a third component was added in the theme: "Un-trapping".

"Un-trapping" also refers to the NEW way of conducting business - creating an infrastructural change in the City of Milwaukee at the neighborhood level.

The Initiative-Plan-Program seek to untrap emerging businesses and hidden talent at the neighborhood-level of Milwaukee, especially for African American, other People of Color and the Work-Challenged (un-, under-employed; un-, under-skilled; and, re-entry - those returning from incarceration, war and deposed retirement. This includes those individuals that are disabled).

It is the people “Patchwork” that will guide the re-defining, re-branding and un-trapping that will create the BOTTOM-UP Recovery Plan of a NEW Middle Class.

It introduces to-date parts of the 10-year plan (2010-2020) scope in a PATCHWORK.

Today’s blog spotlight is on its people – Its prize.

The patchwork labeling starts off with but not limited to:

CHAUTAUQUAS - American Indian culture
DRAGON ROARS - Asian culture
FAMILY REUNIONS - ALL cultures
FIESTAS - Latino culture
HAY FESTIVALS - European culture
MELA FAIRS - India and Muslim cultures
PAN-AFRICAN FESTIVALS - African American-Caribbean-South America-Africa cultures.

It represents ALL HANDS on DECK, WE, Not Me 190 Neighborhoods in COLLAGE.
It is these Milwaukeeans that will put on the map what the "service industry" has to offer from BOTTOM-UP.

More to come . . .
