I was at the Multicultural Motion Picture Association (MMPA) Oscar Week Luncheon on Friday. It was for a good cause and attended by past and this year’s Oscar Award winners and nominees – as well as entrepreneurs and prominent leaders from the community. If you are a multi-culturally driven film maker or interested to learn more about the organization, visit their website. Here you go!

And so it came to be that Oscar left his happy family to seek his fortune and to find happiness. He would sit in the sun everyday and catch flies with his long sticky coated tongue. If he had a good day he would catch some beetles or bugs of sorts. He wanted to catch like his father had before him. He had seen his father bring down a bat once.
