The 29th stamp in the Black Heritage Series, the commemorative stamp highlights the achievements of actress, singer, and radio and television performer Soror Hattie McDaniel.

This commemorative event will be held Friday, October 14, 2005, in Chicago, IL. International Grand Basileus, Dr. Mynora J. Bryant, will join Randy Crumpton, Chairman, Black Perspectives Committee and acclaimed Actor, Terrence Howard with the unveiling of the stamp. Mr. Howard is best known for his parts in Lackawanna Blues, Hustle & Flow, Crash and Ray.

That is wonderful news! Congratulations! :)

I've got my ticket to the Luncheon in Baltimore, Maryland!

Go Sigma, Go Sigma, Go Sigma!

Serioussigma22:)

I know you do! I'm sorry. I'm not sure if I can make it.

How are you doing? You were supposed to call me. ;)

Sorhor Bluereign,

I will call you, god willing, on Friday after work!


Serioussigma:)

Thanks for calling me, ON SUNDAY!!! Miss Missing in Action.:rolleyes:

I think I will be making arrangements to attend this. I mean how could I miss this since you will be attending?! It won't be no fun without you. :D

Sorhors,

The Founders' Day Luncheon in Baltimore, MD was wonderful and it was something else to see the unveiling of the 29th U.S. Postal Stamp. She (Soror Hattie McDaniels) truly was a pioneer and groundbreaker that opened the door for many of our current African American actors.
