2006 centennial Celebration

[Finer Woman10-A-91]

Rashid, it was great meeting you! This was a tremendous milestone in black history indeed! I have never had so many Alpha men try to talk to me at the same time! LOL!!!!! And you know our booth had the southern belles and coolest sister Greeks selling Jewels- The Story of the Founding of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity. How fly were they with the www.jewels1906.com t-shirts!
Being a publicist is hard work ...but somebody's gotta do it!

Here is a picture of Darrius Gourdine speaking about and signing copies of Jewels. I especially enjoyed when he talked about who his Alpha hero is: Mal Goode, first African American journalist on network TV!






And here is one of me and Dr. Parks right after our Homosexuality in Black Fraternities discussion:




More photos to come! Bear with me!

Here an Alpha, there an Alpha, everywhere I went there was an Alpha.... I didn't even make it to the convention hotel but nevermind cause the convention was all over the city all week long!! It was truly a blessing to meet so many young, educated men from all over the country who treated this Rhoyal lady with the highest level of respect.

I enjoyed celebrating 100 years of your brotherhood with you and I wish you all many more.
