The concept of placing media icons on this type of list is not a new one, but your article gave it a unique spin. Many of the people that I expected to read about did not make your list, but for this reason I especially liked the article. Your story gave me the opportunity to learn about people who may not be seen in the media but are active leaders. The people on your list are the role models that the people of my generation look up to. Scientists like Colin Hill and comic strip comic strip, combination of cartoon with a story line, laid out in a series of pictorial panels across a page and concerning a continuous character or set of characters, whose thoughts and dialogues are indicated by means of "balloons" containing written speech. creator Aaron McGruder Aaron McGruder (born May 29, 1974 in Chicago, Illinois) is an American cartoonist best known for writing and drawing The Boondocks, a Universal Press Syndicate comic strip about two young African-American brothers from inner-city Chicago now living with their grandfather serve as an inspiration to college students like me. They show us that we can succeed and make an impact not only in [our] communities, but the world. Your article "Big Time on the Small Screen" in the December 2003 issue was informative. Most stories that feature prominent African Americans in media either focus on actors or singers. Because your article brought attention to the African Americans behind the scenes, you gave another perspective on how someone could get into the entertainment industry, besides the typical route of becoming an actor or singer. The article also gave good advice to the many African Americans that are skeptical about entering a career that is creative, rather than something steady perhaps, like medicine or law. Moreover, your article surprised me because I did not realize the steady progression that African Americans are making in television. With more television executives and producers like Yvette Lee Bowser Yvette Denise Lee Bowser (born July 9, 1965) is an American television writer and producer. She is perhaps best known for writing and producing Half & Half, Living Single, and A Different World. and Ralph Farquhar, I am sure that African Americans will become recognized for our creative skills on and off camera. Your December 2003 article "Beating the Dream-Busters" [Motivation] really caught my attention. As a young African American woman, I have often been told that I cannot accomplish certain things in my life. In these situations, I never know how to respond; [in some cases,] I allow the person to convince me that they are right. Reading your list of suggestions allowed me to come up with possible solutions to deal with this problem. The one bit of advice I especially liked was that you should keep your cherished dreams safe. This is especially true because when you reveal your dreams to certain people, for reasons of envy Envy See also Jealousy. Amneris envious of Aida. [Ital.

To accomplish my goals, I plan to utilize all of your tips. Nanika Shaw Atlanta |
