Quarta-feira, 26/10/2005 Treehouse Julio Daio Borges Sometimes your voice is the only thing that can break a stereotype. I know it sounds crazy, but to me it has always been true. I have had so many labels put on me before anyone ever got a chance to know me that I had to make sure to speak up louder than anyone else just to break down certain barriers. When I started Whitespace, I made sure not to post a picture of myself for a long time because I am not an old, white male. I didn't want to influence the way people saw me without reading what I had to say. I started off as a relative unknown and in the large scale of things I am still an unknown, however blogs gave me a chance to establish myself on a global scale and they give everybody that option. In no other time in history has this occurred so it really is something special. What I like about the voices we pick for the Network is that when you read them you get a sense of the passion behind the voices. You know what is being said is really what that person feels. They can't hide behind a brand or a company because they are the brand. We are just trying to help these unique voices reach a broader audience by giving them more opportunities to do so.
