United States, May 25, 2025 -- The Vision Behind RAM Collective: A Bold New Era in Creative Empowerment
In a world where influence and authenticity hold unparalleled value, Richard Armande Mills is redefining what it means to build a brand, a career, and a narrative. As the visionary founder of RAM Collective, Mills has crafted a multifaceted creative agency designed to empower brands, bold individuals, and organizations. Born from a moment of radical self-trust, RAM Collective is more than just an agency—it's a cultural movement aimed at infusing strategy, creativity, and a deep understanding of modern cultural trends into every aspect of branding and storytelling.
From Executive to Cultural Icon: The Reinvention of Richard Armande Mills
Richard Armande Mills' journey to establish RAM Collective is one of reinvention and resilience. After years of leading initiatives and campaigns within mission-driven organizations and the political space, Mills took a bold step away from the high-profile world he had once thrived in. A pivot that could have seemed risky to some, but for Mills, it was a natural progression towards reclaiming his own narrative and voice.
'I realized I could either wait for someone to give me a platform—or build my own,' said Mills, reflecting on the early days of launching RAM Collective. In this new chapter, Mills combined his expertise in leadership, public speaking, and strategic consulting with his innate creative flair, positioning himself not just as a brand consultant, but as a cultural architect helping shape the future of creative expression.
The Hybrid Approach of RAM Collective: A One-Stop Creative Powerhouse
At the heart of RAM Collective is a unique hybrid model that seamlessly blends creative consulting, brand strategy, event production, and multimedia storytelling. This approach allows RAM Collective to cater to a wide range of clients, from individuals looking to carve out their personal brand to large organizations seeking a cultural and creative overhaul.
Whether launching a brand, executing live events, or curating social media strategies, RAM Collective brings a holistic vision to every project. Mills' extensive experience as a creator, host, and influencer ensures that each campaign is not just executed but elevated—making it memorable, impactful, and true to the core values of the client.
'It's not just about pretty visuals. It's about creating a presence that shifts a room—online or in person,' Mills remarked, emphasizing the importance of authenticity in all creative endeavors.
Rich Bitch Summer: Where Fashion Meets Empowerment
One of RAM Collective's standout initiatives is the debut of the 'Rich Bitch Summer' collection—a limited-edition merch line that is more than just fashion. Combining fashion, satire, and empowerment, this capsule collection has quickly become a cultural statement, resonating with those who embrace boldness, confidence, and the power of self-expression.
'Rich Bitch Summer isn't just merch. It's a mindset,' Mills explained, underscoring the collection's alignment with RAM Collective's mission to empower individuals to live and brand themselves unapologetically.
This merch line is just the beginning. As the agency's online store continues to grow, RAM Collective is laying the foundation for a future where every product tells a story and reinforces the brand's overarching narrative of empowerment.
Music, Media, and More: The Multi-Hyphenate Legacy of RAM Collective
As a rising music artist, Mills' debut single 'Bounce' has captured the attention of fans and critics alike, marking his entrance into the indie-pop scene. The follow-up track, 'Hey Boy,' is set to release on June 13, further cementing Mills as a multi-hyphenate force to be reckoned with. His music captures his signature mix of boldness, cheeky flirtation, and 'main character energy,' giving his audience an authentic glimpse into his creative journey.
But music is just one part of the equation. RAM Collective is also making waves in visual content, with upcoming projects that promise to push the boundaries of what it means to connect and engage with an audience. Whether through music, fashion, or media, RAM Collective is steadily building a cultural presence that blends creativity with strategy to deliver results that resonate.
Looking Ahead: What's Next for RAM Collective

With a rapidly growing client base, ongoing collaborations, and a cultural ethos that resonates deeply with the next generation of thinkers, creators, and disruptors, RAM Collective is emerging as a cultural force to watch—one built on vision, empowerment, and creative integrity.

Potential Problems Loom Underneath Resilient Labor Market Data
The labor market added 139,000 jobs and the unemployment rate stayed at 4.2% in May 2025, according to the latest release from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Those top line numbers indicate a resilient labor market. Hiring seems to continue apace, even though widespread economic policy uncertainty has clouded planning for many businesses. But, there are also signs, especially a drop in the labor force, that a slowdown may be under way. The latest labor market data show several positive signs. The labor market has continuously added jobs for 53 months now, starting in January 2021. And, the unemployment rate has stayed at or below 4.2% since November 2021, even as the Federal Reserve hit the brakes by raising its key interest rate, meant to slow hiring. Moreover, monthly wage growth has accelerated from 0.2% in March to 0.3% in April and to 0.4% in May 2025. All of these data points show a labor market that has held steady amid the turmoil brought on by President Donald Trump's chaotic approach to economic policy. There are signs, though, that things may be slowing more than the overall numbers suggest, although no single month makes a trend. For instance, federal government employment has fallen by 59,000 jobs since January. Many federal government employees live sort of in a limbo, with some being laid off but those layoffs being stopped by the courts, others being recalled, and even others having accepted retirements later this year. As several of these things unwind, federal government unemployment could further decline. Manufacturing could become another trouble spot. Total manufacturing employment was 88,000 jobs lower than in May 2024 – the last month of peak employment in this sector. Jobs in that sector dropped by another 8,000 in May. Most of those job losses – 7,000 – happened in durable goods manufacturing, particularly machinery equipment. As Trump's tariff chaos continues, many manufacturing firms will likely delay or completely hold off expansion plans. They may have to pay more for inputs such as steel, which just saw its tariff rate increase to 50%, and they may face retaliatory tariffs for their exports. Further, the latest jobs market release revised the prior two months downward. There were 65,000 fewer jobs added in March and 30,000 fewer jobs created in April 2025 than previously reported. The March data had already been revised downward by 43,000 in April 2025. That is, there are now 108,000 fewer jobs than were initially reported for March 2025. The estimate of new jobs for March thus has been almost cut in half from 228,000 to 120,000. The downward revisions of prior labor market estimates have now happened for a three months, after the monthly data releases revised jobs numbers upward from November 2024 to February 2025. That is, for four months, the BLS reported a stronger than previously estimated labor market, while the opposite has been true since then. The latest labor market data also show that many people left the labor market, including many unemployed workers. The household survey, which allows for the calculation of the unemployment rate, shows a drop in the labor force by 625,000 people in May 2025. At the same time, employment in the household survey fell by 696,000 people. This was the largest single month drop since December 2023 for both the total labor force and number of people with jobs. The rest became unemployed, lowering long term unemployment for the first time since January 2025. The unemployment rate stayed steady because people left the labor force all together, not because more people found jobs. The latest jobs market data shows an economy in a holding pattern. Job growth has moderated, but remains positive. On the other hand, hundreds of thousands of people left the labor force last month, possibly because they were becoming frustrated with not finding new jobs. The economy seems still resilient for now, but trouble spots are emerging.

Brand USA Funding Would be Slashed by 80% in Senate Republican Proposal
If the measure ultimately becomes law, it would severely hamper Brand USA's ability to market the U.S. internationally as a travel destination. A U.S. Senate Committee is proposing to slash Brand USA's annual funding to $20 million from the current $100 million. If the measure ultimately becomes law, it would severely hamper Brand USA's ability to market the U.S. internationally as a travel destination. "That will have very severe ramifications for what Brand USA will be able to do and not do," said a source close to Brand USA. "A cut like that essentially eliminates all ability for advertising globally." The U.S. Travel Association issued a call for the travel industry to oppose the measure. "This funding reduction will significantly impact our entire industry, no matter what sector you serve," said Nicole Porter, Vice President, Political Affairs, for the U.S. Travel Association in an email to supporters. "While we know we have asked for your engagement on this issue before, your continued action is now more critical than ever." Brand USA, a public-private partnership, currently is eligible for up to $100 million in funding annually sourced from the Electronic System for Travel Authorization fees that international travelers to the U.S. must pay.

No Pipeline, No Progress: Meeting The Demand For Advanced Degrees
As demand for master's and doctoral degrees surges, too few programs exist to support the students most often excluded—despite their potential. The United States stands at a crossroads. While innovation, competitiveness, and global leadership increasingly depend on highly educated workers, access to graduate education remains deeply unequal and underfunded. Over 60% of business and government leaders hold graduate degrees—with more than half in business and nearly a third in law. A 2020 report by Brint and colleagues found that 61% of top media figures and 78% of think tank and foundation leaders also held advanced degrees. In many leadership roles, graduate education is no longer a competitive advantage—it's a requirement. Demand is rising. A 2024 report from Georgetown University's Center on Education and the Workforce projects that nearly 1 in 5 jobs will soon require an advanced degree. Among 'good jobs'—those offering middle-class wages of $43,000 or more—1 in 4 will demand graduate credentials. Yet access to graduate education remains deeply inequitable. Madeline Brighouse Glueck finds that parental education still shapes graduate enrollment, especially in high-investment, high-return programs like law, medicine, and PhDs. In medicine alone, over 75% of students come from the top two income quintiles. Even academically qualified first-generation and low-income students are often left behind. While families with financial and social capital can navigate elite admissions and cover soaring costs, others are shut out. The only federally funded graduate pipeline program is the McNair Scholars Program, which supports first-generation, low-income, and underrepresented undergraduates seeking PhDs. This program—and others like Upward Bound—are now at risk of being defunded. As the federal government grows increasingly hostile toward identity-based programs in higher education, the burden of promoting equitable access is falling to the private sector and nonprofit organizations. Yet only a handful of national nonprofits directly focus on this issue: These organizations are doing powerful work—but their combined reach can only serve a fraction of the students who deserve access. To meet the moment, coordinated investments are needed—not just in graduate preparation, but also in affordability, mentorship, and long-term support: Graduate education is not a luxury—it is a national imperative. If we want to lead in science, health, law, and business—and if we believe in opportunity—we must invest in the people who will lead those fields. Let's ensure that talent, not zip code or family background, determines who has a seat at the table. Change can't wait. The time to invest is now. —--------- Help us widen the pipeline.
