American Authors Academy American Authors: We ignite change and help legacies through inspiring stories. Author Your Legacy! Join the Movement of Storytellers
Your invitation is open.

Welcome to a World Where Stories Aren't Just Told; They Come Alive
At American Authors, we recognize the extraordinary power of stories. They're more than words on a page; they're catalysts for change, sparking new ways of thinking and being. Inspiring Young Minds: Angel, now 7, started creating stories at 3 that shaped his bright mind and redefined learning. His early adventures in writing showca

se the incredible potential of youthful creativity. Empowering Voices: Christine, my daughter, at 6, used her writing to illuminate the plight of the homeless, demonstrating how young authors can inspire change and compassion. Creativity in Challenging Times: Luis, my eldest, used the quiet of the pandemic as a creative haven, writing four books that challenged norms and showed the endless possibilities, even for those on the Autism spectrum. A Journey of Resilience: Dali, my wife, turned a life-changing near-death car accident into a pathway to happiness. Her book, 'Defeat It!', is more than a story; it’s a testament to finding joy and purpose through life’s trials. Celebrating the 'Specially Gifted': Latanya Walker and Jacqueline Correa have authored inspiring books for their grandchildren with special needs. “Space Dreamer: Reagan's Adventures Across the Solar System” and “The Amazing Adventures of Sebastian: Beyond Limitations” are beacons of inspiration and understanding for families with special needs children. Stories That Honor Heroes: Our books, like “American Heroes: Raising the Flag” book series, do more than tell tales; they keep the legacies of our nation's heroes vibrantly alive. From Bedtime Stories to Family Legacy: Imagine a simple bedtime story becoming a cherished book passed down through generations, intertwining a family’s history into its very fabric. Keeping Memories Alive: We believe in celebrating loved ones not just in memory but through stories that capture their essence, keeping their spirit alive through time. Whether it’s a tale that opens a child’s world, a narrative that brings people to faith, or a memoir that celebrates life, your story has a place with us. We're about more than writing books; we're about creating change, crafting legacies, and touching lives. American Authors has proudly published over 300+ books, journals, notebooks and more, each a thread in the grand tapestry of our human experience. And the journey continues, as we foreshadow our next wave of YES! Legacy Learning programs. From Level 1: Young Emerging Storytellers, we expand to Level 2: Young Entrepreneurial Superstars and Level 3: Young Eloquent Speakers - programs designed to cultivate the next generation of visionary writers, savvy business minds, and inspiring orators. Your Story Is Waiting. Write It. Share It. Live It. Step into our world, where your story is not just a story; it's a revolution waiting to happen. It's a legacy, a lesson, and a lifeline. It's yours to tell. American Authors: Where Every Story Matters and Every Legacy Lives.

📚 American Authors Academy
in partnership with
🎉 The Juneteenth Group
presents:
✨ A Legacy of Genius: The Story and Strategy of Benjamin Banneker ✨
🤯 Did you know the layout of Washington, DC — the streets, the capital’s foundation — were shaped by a Black man born in 1731, with no formal education?
His name was Benjamin Banneker 🕰️
He was a:
🧠 Self-taught mathematician
🌌 Astronomer
📏 Surveyor
🛠️ Clockmaker
🕰️ Built a wooden clock that kept perfect time for over 40 years
🌑 Accurately predicted solar eclipses
🗺️ Recreated the capital’s plans from memory when they were lost
That’s legacy. 🏛️🔥
Here’s how you apply his genius today:
✅ Study something no one told you to
✅ Build discipline even when no one’s watching
✅ Document your work
✅ Speak up when it counts
💥 Banneker didn’t wait for permission — he mastered the time he was given.
👇 Want to activate your gifts like Banneker?

📷 Greetings, beloved
This is Jarvis Bailey coming at you live and direct from Benjamin Banneker Park, right here in the heart of Washington, DC, at the beautiful DC Wharf 📷📷
If you’ve been following me, you know that on Juneteenth 2025, alongside my dear friends Luis Burgado and Eunice Haigler, we declared:
📷 Juneteenth isn’t just a day — it’s a movement.
📷 We committed to keeping the spirit of Juneteenth alive all year long.
And we launched that living legacy with a name you should know:
📷 James Forten — F-O-R-T-E-N
A trailblazer whose story we honor in our Living Legacy Series.
Find Book One on Amazon at 📷 https://a.co/d/0Qc4COJ
But today…
I’m standing in the presence of another giant.
📷Benjamin Banneker Park
They say:
📷 “If I can see into the future, it’s because I’m standing on the shoulders of giants.”
And Benjamin Banneker is one of those giants.
📷 America’s first Black man of science
📷 A self-taught mathematician
📷 An astronomer
📷 A composer of almanacs
📷 His calculations helped lay out the boundaries of our nation’s capital.
He wasn’t just ahead of his time…
He was shaping it.
My brother Luis Burgado would say:
“Banneker was a time traveler.”
One of the great ones.
As I walk this high ground above the Anacostia River…
I remember that this land carries stories older than this nation 📷
📷 Native peoples were here long before the colonies
And names like “Anacostia” echo their legacy.
📷 Our diversity is not a challenge to overcome
It’s a sacred strength to honor.
And as I reflect on my own cultural heritage…
I see that many of you watching today
📷 You are also ahead of your time.
So today:
📷 Honor the giants whose shoulders you stand on.
📷 Honor the giant that you are becoming.
📷 I love you
📷 God loves you
📷 And there’s absolutely nothing you can do about it.

🎤 Greetings, beloved!
Jarvis Bailey here — live and direct 🎥
📍 From The Wharf in Washington, DC 🌊
I love this spot 🧡
And I’m personally connected to it...
Because like we always say —
📖 Everybody has a story
👩🏾‍❤️‍👨🏾 Flashback with me for a second...
🕰️ Back in high school, I was dating my sweetheart 💞
(Yes, the one I married 💍)
Her father used to deliver seafood right here 🍤🦀🐟
To this very market —
📦 Crabs
🎣 Fish
🧊 Packed and sold
Right here in DC at the Wharf
👥 People from my hometown — Eastern Shore, VA —
Came here to grind 💪🏾
👕 Clean fish
💼 Sell crabs
🧺 Run their stands
🧑🏾‍🍳 Share their culture right here in the heart of the city
🎓 Even when I went off to college...
🏠 Even when I moved to Fredericksburg...
I could always come back
🌅 To this spot
And feel that connection 🔗
To home
To legacy
To love
☀️ This morning?
It’s not even 6AM ⏰
But I’m out here walking 🚶🏾‍♂️
Breathing
Reflecting
Remembering
🙏🏾 Feeling grateful

🫵 You matter.
If not for you... then for your family 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
If not for your family... then for your community 🏘️
If not for your community... then for your church ⛪
If not for your church... then for the next generation 👶📚
🚫 Don’t let silence erase them.
🚫 Don’t let the worry of what others think stop you.
🧠 The world told you:
❌ "It’s not important."
❌ "No one cares."
❌ "It doesn’t matter."
But hear me now 👂
📢 Your story matters.
💥 Your voice matters.
📖 YOU are the missing chapter we need.
✨ So speak.
✨ So write.
✨ So record it.
Because generations are waiting.

💭 Pause. 🧘 Take a deep breath. 💡 And choose ONE moment in your life that you would never want to forget.
It could be: 😂 A funny memory 👶 The birth of your child 💍 Your wedding day 🏆 A personal victory 🙌 A lesson that changed everything
👉 Whatever it is… just write it down.✍️ One sentence. One title. That’s it. Example: 📌 “Rode a bike for the first time.”📌 “Cried with my dad after graduation.”
🎬 Now imagine this...
What if you wrote down 20 more titles just like that? No full stories yet — just memory bookmarks.
You’re not writing a novel. 📓 You’re building a legacy vault — one title at a time.
📱 Next step — open your phone
Go to your Notes app 📝 or your Voice Memos 🎙️ Pick one of those titles.
⏱️ Set a timer for 2 minutes. 🎤 And just... tell the story.
No filters. No overthinking. No trying to sound perfect. Just real. Raw. Honest.
👶 Imagine you're telling the story to a blind child.
That means: ⏳ Slow down. 🎨 Describe what they can’t see. ❤️ Help them feel it.
You’re not rushing. You’re not performing. You’re preserving something sacred.
🔁 Now repeat.One voice memo. Two minutes. Twenty titles. ✅ A lifetime of memories saved.
This is how you create a library of YOU.
📚 Your story matters. 💎 Your moments matter. 🔥 Start now. Don’t let them fade.

Greetings, beloved 🙏🏾
This is Jarvis Bailey coming at you live and direct on Day 20 of our 21-Day Challenge, digging deep into The 5 Types of Wealth by Sahil Bloom 📘
Each type of wealth comes with a question;
Not about what you have, but about how you're living.
Let’s get into these 💥 BIG questions:
🕰️ Time Wealth
How many moments do you have left with your loved ones?
🤝 Social Wealth
Who will be sitting in the front row at your funeral?
🧠 Mental Wealth
What would your 10-year-old self say to you today?
💪🏾 Physical Wealth
Will you be dancing at your 80th birthday?
💵 Financial Wealth
What is your definition of enough?
Take a moment and answer each one honestly.
Because real wealth starts with real clarity.
And as always...
I love you. God loves you. And there’s absolutely nothing you can do about it.
👋🏾 See you when I see you.

🎉 Greetings, beloved!
This is Jarvis Bailey, coming to you live and direct from one of my favorite places in Fredericksburg, Virginia. I’m standing on the rocks by the beautiful Rappahannock River 🌊
Today is Day 21 of our 21-day challenge, where we’ve been exploring The 5 Types of Wealth by Sahil Bloom.
We made it. We’re here. 🙌
Since this is the final day, I want to leave you with two important thoughts.
🧠 1. Reflection leads to transformation
There’s a principle from John Maxwell that I want you to remember.
It’s called the Law of Reflection.
👉 You must pause and reflect to allow your growth to catch up with you.
We’ve spent 21 days learning, growing, and showing up.
Now is the time to pause and ask yourself:
What did I learn?
What did I gain?
What do I need to adjust moving forward?
💪 Personally, I lost 10 pounds during this challenge. That’s not just about weight. That’s about discipline. That’s about growth.
🙏 2. A final prayer for you
During my morning devotional today, something powerful came over me.
My prayer is that the heaviness of God's glory would dwell with you, today and always.
In the Old Testament, the Hebrew word for glory comes from a word that means heavy.
💨 When God's presence filled the temple, the priests couldn’t even enter. It was thick. It was holy. It was undeniable.
That is my prayer for you.
That the fullness of God’s presence would rest on you, cover you, and guide you in every area of your life.

I wasn’t planning to post this today...
But something hit me, and I had to share it. 💭
So many of us are feeling:
😞 Disconnected
😔 Abandoned
🥀 Alone
But hear me...
It’s not that people gave up on you.
It’s that you’ve grown. 💪🏾
You’re moving at a different pace 🏃🏾‍♂️
You’re shining in your purpose 🌟
You’re running a race they were never built to finish with you 🛣️
And yes, people will disappear.
That’s part of the elevation.
But where you’re going...
👥 You’ll meet people who match your momentum
🤝 People who speak life into your journey
🧠 People who bring wisdom and support
❤️ People who see you and celebrate you
This season is not punishment.
It’s preparation.
This is your season to grow. 🌻
✅ Keep running your race
✅ Don’t look back
✅ You are not alone
