Women are Invisible | SBA Deja Vu

Women are Invisible

As the saying goes, If you see something wrong, do something about it. People today are not living by that motto. 

Just recently, a woman was riding the Septa train in Philadelphia when a man assaulted and raped her on the train in plain view of all the other riders. Many of the passengers on the train stood by and watched. This incident occurred around 8:00pm at night when there was a good number of traffic and the entire time this happened, no one stopped to intervene and help. However, some did feel the need to videotape the horrific incident on their cell phones….can you imagine?

It's hard to believe and understand that this is the world we live in. For decades, women have been treated poorly, objectified, and in the present day, not much has changed.

As a nation, as human beings, this should not and can not stand. An incident that could have been prevented if bystanders simply would have acted rather than watched. A sad moment in history for everyone that was there and a horrendous moment in time that the victim can never wipe away.

SBA Deja Vu

We are at it again...applying for reconsideration of our EIDL loan that started way back when in March of 2020. It was a process then and still very much a process now. With all the fraud that took place and the SBA giving money out like running water, it’s surprising in many ways that the pot has run out again. But, unfortunately as with most things, the COVID-19 relief fund will be ending December 2021. 

We are very hopeful that with the new changes to the program, learning from past mistakes, and under the current Biden Administration we’ll qualify for the EIDL loan but only time will tell.
