(BALTIMORE – October 17, 2022) – As the $100 million federally-funded Baltimore Empowerment Zone was coming to a close, Donald Morton “Doni” Glover decided to take the marketing and media skills he had honed at Empower Baltimore Management Corporation under Diane Bell-McKoy and Michael Preston and open his own shop. After all, it made no sense to live in the Empowerment Zone – in Sandtown – and not take advantage of the many resources available.

Thus, DMGlobal Marketing & Public Relations, LLC was founded on August 9, 2002, in Baltimore. It is a multi-media boutique firm specializing in customized marketing strategies to help clients reach the African American community, beginning in Maryland. Doni’s mission has always been to take his 28 years of journalistic expertise in print, radio, TV, and the web and use it to help clients better reach their target market in the smartest, most efficient way possible.

DMGlobal’s clients include businesses, political candidates, municipalities, other marketing firms, lawyers, authors, artists, and non-profits seeking to better communicate with 2 million Black people between Baltimore and Washington, D.C., including Gorgeous Prince George’s County, MD.
DMGlobal’s “special sauce” is BMORENEWS.com, an award-winning Baltimore-based digital news outlet that was also founded in 2002. BMORENEWS.com has covered news across the United States, including the United Nations, and some 50 visits to cover news at the White House. BMORENEWS.com has also covered news in Jordan in September 2002 as US troops were landing in preparation to invade Iraq, in Ethiopia during the sometimes volatile 2006 elections, as well as news in Tanzania, Jamaica, and Canada.

The Joe Manns Black Wall Street Awards, which started out as The Harambee Dinner, soon took on a life of its own. Established in Washington, D.C. in 2011 by BMORENEWS.com in cooperation with the beautiful queens of Sisters4Sisters Network, Inc., they were initially called the Black Capitol Awards. BMORENEWS.com also co-hosted a Women’s Global Empowerment Forum with Sisters4Sisters Network at the United Nations in New York where 60 attendees came from Connecticut to North Carolina. Soon, the name of the awards evolved into the Joe Manns Black Wall Street Awards where we celebrate Black entrepreneurs and professionals as well as the people who support them regardless of race.
To date, BMORENEWS and its Partners have honored over 1,900 individuals in 9 US cities: New York, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., Richmond, Atlanta, New Orleans, Birmingham, Las Vegas, and Tulsa. The goal is to help preserve little-known national Black Wall Street History and to help encourage entrepreneurship,

beginning in the Black community. As Maryland Lt. Gov. Boyd Rutherford states, no one hires Black people more than Black people. Therefore, we must do all we can to support our businesses. And given our $1.6 trillion in annual disposable income, that shouldn’t be too difficult to do. It should be noted that our most famous honoree was the Late Mayor for Life of Washington, D.C., Marion Barry.
When the pandemic hit, DMGlobal pivoted to streaming news. Consequently, a whole new entity was birthed: BlackUSA.News. Since December 2020, BlackUSA.News has grown to host 16 different weekly shows with hosts in 6 cities – New York, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Oakland, and Los Angeles – that stream original content 7 days a week.
