Promoting Pride and Awaronooo It took twenty-four years before the campus could enjoy and benifit from the E.S.U. club organization. The Slack Student Union has existed since 'I SSO, but was just introduced in 'l SS4 through the efforts of Nlrs. Jewel Fieed the present advisor. Endevoring to promote pride and awareness of their background among black students, the club of 'l C3 members planned the activities accordingly. They went to King Kennedy Center during Slack History Week where the club heard an Ambassador from Nigeria as a guest speaker. The evening spent at Solid Flock Church, watching a play All That l Have , written and directed by .Jean Newman, was a special treat. lvlrs. Fieed and her husband plus Keisha l-licks, publicity direc- tor for the club, were actors in the production. The play revealed the UU - ? I 09. life of a local, early, pioneer black family trying to survive yet still helping homeless children. Selling gold plated jewelry and putting on bake sales proved helpful in raising funds. Part of these funds purchased a book about Black Americans, that was donated to the school library. if 'l. Nina Stoughtenborough President of SSLJ talking about what they could do with their money.
