" What makes a man a man is really not from where you met him but, where he started before you met him"
Sister Souljah blessed the Morgan States campus this afternoon. She spoke words of enlightment for the young black students. Although she was about twenty minutes late as soon as she entered ,
She gained the immediate attention on every single person in the room. She requested for all cameras and recorders not be used during the duration of the event and most of the people respected her wishes. If they did not want to cooperate the first time she made it clear by directing her attention to a student who tried to continue to steal snapshots. After the interruption she read the first chapter from her new book “Midnight”. The whole room stayed vigilant as she read word after word with emotion and power. She appealed to the students in the room through all different angles; male and female prospective and young black children struggling in the countries most impoverished cities. She told her story of her years in college and meeting people from all different walks of life. After she read her excerpt she welcomed questions and also comments. Students asked about possible movies coming out based on the book. She covered topics with the people as far as self enlightment and growth. Sister Souljah encouraged the college students to become more of role models to children with less opportunities and struggles at a young age. Midnight the meeting with Sister Souljah not only was wonderful to be based on the empowerment being given but also the encouragement to buy one of the years soon to be best novel.
