This is absolutely wonderful! Congratulations...another black woman making history!
I think this is great as well. What are your thoughts regarding Bill Maher's criticism of her weight?
Great news! Another Dynamic Delta leading the way!
A wonderful moment in the life of all Deltas. I am encouraged. What God has enstore for Dr Benjamine is for her. No nay sayer can stop that from happening.
We are the change we've been looking for. Go forth Sorors!
