My
husband and I, both Howard University alumni, are just back from a special
event at the Howard University. It was a gala reception at the Howard
University Founders Library. It previewed the premier of a new
exhibition. It is entitled "Mandela: Character, Comrade, Leader,
Prisoner, Negotiator, Statesman.” It is an awesome photographic
exhibition of the many stages of Nelson Mandela's life and impact on South Africa
and the world, replete with direct quotations from Nelson Mandela.
We
also got a chance to meet the new interim president of Howard University, Dr.
Wayne A.I. Frederick, who was very gracious. There were also other
dignitaries there, such as the South African Ambassador to the United
States. I really enjoyed the event. I hope you get a chance to view
this new exhibition at The Moorland-Spingarn Research Center Gallery at Howard
University.
