Which DST Founder would you like to meet?

[CrimsonTide4]

One of the things I enjoyed most about ISOS was reading about the founders. The women all seemed so likeable as well take charge. Their impact was immense not just on the campus of Howard University and Delta Sigma Theta, but within the world.

I would want to meet Soror Bertha Pitts Campbell because I found it funny that we were both small busted women. I know this might seem ish to you all.

I would also want to meet Sorors Zephyr Chisom Carter and Naomi Sewell Richardson because I think they might have made me a member of the Dust Club. FYI the Dust Club was for women who were unable to attract suitable boyfriends.

I would have wanted to also meet Soror Jessie McGuire Dent because she attended one of the first Black high schools in Texas and I am an alumnus of the only Black suburban high school in Cleveland.

I would have wanted to meet Soror Mamie Reddy Rose since she hails from Beta, South Carolina and both of my paternal grandparents were from Gaffney, South Carolina.

Having served in several leadership positions, Soror Myra Davis Hemmings and I would have to meet.

Soror Pauline Oberdorfer Minor and I share a love of gospel music since we both grew up singing in the church choir.

Having pantomined "Dream Variation" by Langston Hughes in the third grade, I would want to meet Sorors Osceola Macarthy Adams, Winona Cargile Alexander, and Madree Penn White.

Finally as a teacher, I would want to meet all of the soror founders who became teachers -- Sorors Naomi Sewell Richardson, Wertie B. Weaver, Olive Jones, Vashti Turley Murphy, Eliza P. Shippen, and Pauline Oberdorfer Minor.
