An Introspective Glance at Startup Culture on Small Business Saturday
Small Business Saturday follows the madness from Black Friday each year by inviting consumers away from the big box stores, and down to Main Street to help spur and drive the local economy. Yesterday was also Record Store Day Black Friday, which is an annual event that provides local, independent record stores with limited released vinyl to bring in shoppers. This initiative creates a large buzz for indie record stores. What Small Business Saturday is missing from their annual event is driving force that will draw in crowds.

The Standing Rock Native American Reservation has Become the Epicenter of the Environment
The Army Corps of Engineers sent a letter on Friday to the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe explaining that the violent confrontations have taken place, and they are shutting down the campgrounds, (area north of the Cannonball River, including the Oceti Sakowin camp).

Election 2016 left a majority of the country trying to figure out why a candidate with over a million votes in the popular election could lose the overall election. The answer is Donald Trump did a better job of campaigning in swing states with important electoral votes better than Hillary Clinton overall. Donald Trump is not only a politician by definition, but he was better at being a political candidate than Clinton with years of experience. What Trump did well is connect with voters on the economy. (He used the energy within the Bernie Sanders campaign on the oppression with
