Jamie Triplin-Hines is a ethnically diverse lady who has a passion for bringing difficult societal issues to the forefront. Being a former adviser to NAACP, she prides herself in the fact that her life experiences have taught her to see things from all perspectives--skin color, religion, socio-economic status and other demographics do not stop her from treating people from all walks of life with respect and civility. Jamie does not force people to fit inside a box labeled by society; especially after years of herself being forced to check the "white," "black," or "other" box on applications and tests. Can we just check "human"? She currently writes for www.lipmantimes.com where she does media analysis and reporting. Contact Jamie at jtrip.hines@gmail.com.
