Barack Obama Elected America’s First Black President
By Hazel Trice Edney, NNPA Editor-in-Chief
|
WASHINGTON (NNPA) – After a fierce
fight of two years to change the course of
history, U. S. Senator Barack Obama has
been elected the first African-American president of the United States.
His win culminates an American history that
expands from Black slavery
to Jim Crow to a modern
day civil rights movement
still marked by institutional
racism.
“America is in the process
and has taken the first step
of turning from darkness
unto light, turning from war
unto peace, turning from
exploitation of the poor by the
powerful to equal opportunity
and economic justice,” said
civil rights icon the Rev. Joseph
Lowery in an interview. “It’s a
great moment for America.”
In awe, America has paused to
celebrate this victory.

I Am...Sasha Fierce
Artist: Beyonce
SONY RECORDS
11.18.08
It’s Beyonce Knowles. Married, Mature,
Shy, Introspective and still on a
mission of becoming the personifi cation
of Queen of the Industry. With her current
release, I AM... SASHA FIERCE,
Beyonce introduces us to the two extreme
sides of her musical personality.
Acknowledging that married life has
brought her into greater understanding
of the wants, needs and desires of men
and women, this CD is well thought with
messages that are packaged in hot
production and the melodic vocal that
is a Beyonce trademark. Sasha Fierce
comes out swinging with the one -two “If I Were A Boy” and “Single Ladies(Put
A Ring On It). |
