Brother Hustle: "While watching the news reports about the 'Occupy' movement in the cities of Oakland, Calif., Austin, Texas, and Atlanta, Ga., Aunt Tee-Tee and I recalled the late Sam Cooke's song 'Change Is Gonna Come.'"

Then I go to my brother
And I say brother help me please
But he winds up knocking me
Back down on my knees.

"A lot of people have experienced a rude awakening this year. The nightmare of unemployment, home foreclosure, student loan debt, financial ruin and lack of necessary job skills has become an unwelcome reality to millions of people. Forty-seven years ago, a U.S. president declared a war on poverty. Today, 99 percent of the poor and middle class confront the wealthy one percent.

If you've experience a rude awakening, Aunt Tee Tee and I want to help you through your economic and vocational perils. As associate dean of the Aunt Tee Tee Technical Institute, I invite the newly unemployed unskilled and skilled individuals to learn together at the Each One Teach One Vocational Institute. Now is the time to change the future of career and vocational education by letting the skilled train the unskilled. Your attendance at the vocational institute is a great way to acquire needed skills in computers and technology. The cost is absolutely free—as long as you pass on your acquired knowledge to another student.

The Each One Teach One Vocational Institute is part of the Hair Did University School of Cosmetology Continuing Education Program.
