Dr. Boyce Watkins Banned from Facebook for 30 days

Let's discuss Why Dr. Boyce Watkins Banned from Facebook matters to all of us who are business owners. Whether you are black or white this can happen to you! That being said, it's most likely it happened because Dr. Boyce is black. He shared an article (which He discussed on his periscope) and most likely the content of that article upset people. Unfortunately, black people are often discriminated against, and mistreated just for talking about discrimination and mistreatment! Its' a catch 22, where you're sorta damned if you do, and damned if you don't.

Dr. Boyce however, is so inspirational to so many people, myself included.

His passion to discuss our story, and also present solutions to help our people motivates me and fuels so much of what I do as well. The Black Folder, and all the efforts made to encourage black people to work together in the MLM Industry, come from thought leaders like Dr. Boyce Watkins. So, his being banned from facebook for 30 days, is actually a big deal. Hopefully the response from so many that this is unfair, will help reverse this decision. That being said, I doubt facebook 'themselves' made it.

What he shared, that got him banned from facebook is an actual historical fact. It's one of those issues America likes to censor when discussing it's past. Things like this explain why racist attitudes linger in the minds of white Americans to this day. Unfortunately, the way several social media sites are set up, you can get banned from facebook, youtube or twitter if enough people don't like what you have to say!

I've already addressed most of why this happened in other outlets run by TopNetworkersGroup. Read : Multiple Streams, Dr. Boyce, Trolls and Racism

When you know this is a possibility though, you can prepare for it by not limiting your marketing to facebook. Just as Dr. Boyce was able to use multiple outlets to inform his followers that he had been banned, you want to position yourself to do the same.

Watch our training, Social Networking For Money and learn WHAT you should be doing, and WHY you should be on MORE than one social media platform.

Also, consider setting up a Blog with GDI. If you ever get banned from facebook or any other outlet, you still should have additional outlets to discuss your ideas. Not only can you make money from referring others to GDI, but you can also use your blog to sell products and or services that you believe in. If you happen to own your own company, you can use your blog to create additional backlinks to your main blog or website. Blogging Matters. If you need help with understanding any of this reach out and ask for it. That's what we are here for!
