What does being an entrepreneur mean to you? DS:

"Music was truly my first love and one of my only outlets during these times. After writing songs and rapping for a number of years, I finally decided to expand my love for music in a way that I could monetize. I began to teach myself how to DJ via YouTube videos. I would go and lock myself in a room at my friend’s house because his stepdad was the only person I knew that owned DJ equipment. Finally, I used some leftover scholarship money to invest in my first bit of DJ equipment. From there I made the right connections with the right people. The rest was history."

BH:

Even at an early age, I showed interest in fashion, style, drawing, and art in general. I knew it was a way I could express myself. I didn’t get a chance to fully exhibit my skills until I worked under my late mentor, Dr. Bush of Jackson Funeral Home. He was someone who believed in me and invested so much in me. During my days of working there, I assisted with planning, floral arrangements, programs, and casketing the deceased. Also, at this time, I grew a passion for hair. I started taking clients at the age of 14. Within the first month of me doing hair, I booked 22 appointments. Thanks to social media! Over the last seven years, I’ve gained an amazing clientele.

Although I branched out, I still do hair and makeup for the deceased. Which is something I truly love to do."

Tangela Mitchell, affectionately known as Tangie, is your local North Carolina homegirl who likes to write and create things. The youngest of three girls raised by a single actress in a poor but powerful house of music, art, and personality.

Tangie’s mother encouraged their creativity and the result is three young, black artists who digest the world through their crafts. Tangie's meal of choice is poetry. Writing creatively since she could hold a pencil: short stories, poems, songs, etc. Tangie got more serious about poetry in high school, and even more serious in college. Now, she is getting her Master of Fine Arts in Writing with a Concentration in Poetry at Sarah Lawrence College.

“I’m hesitant to label myself as a poet, only because I feel like my being a poet is a byproduct of a deeper calling. I dig stories. I dig people. I dig how commitment to telling stories in their full splendor and brilliance pushes forward the dialogue of humanity and forces us to grapple with even the most uncomfortable truths. I dig truth. Poetry is a catalyst through which I can engage all the things that I dig, but it is not the only one,” Mitchell said. “Words. My art is my words. I align my words with projects and poems and initiatives that push forth truth. I shine light on our culture through my creative works, by celebrating my roots, my family, my neighborhood. And as we’ve seen, over and over, when Black women speak and write and sing and create, we push the docket forward. We expand the conversation. We make space for the most silenced lived experiences in our community.”

Fashion, photography, and visual arts are other catalysts that resonate with Tangie, and she plans to tell stories through them as well.

“I would say the main way I deviate from the status quo is with my resistance to planning or living my life according to some contrived timeline society chose for me,” Mitchell said. “I do not navigate based on what society expects from me, based on what people want from me, or based on what has been done before: I follow my heart. Always.

There is something to be celebrated about that, and my deepest wish is to see the same courage be awakened in the women I encounter.”

“Being the Woman of the Year is significant because it suggests impact. There’s a lot of great people in the AUC doing a lot of great things; this nomination means my “great things” resonated with folks. And that's really what I’m all about. I mean, what are your positions or titles or projects or programs or organizations if they don’t truly impact others? I reject performativity and superficiality, and I truly do everything to encourage, inspire, and help people. This nomination tells me I’m on the right track… and for that, I am profoundly grateful.”

"It helps me understand how some 400+ years later, while the resulting remnants of the damage and destruction that was done to the black family unit during slavery, and the lingering deleterious governmental policies and cultural stereotyping that continue to do harm to many Black communities today. Yet, we still survive and even some thrive,” Turner said. “I am fully aware of the power of film. I understand how it can serve to educate, inspire change, connect people, and change hearts unlike any other form of media. And in the wake of the tragic events that continue to disproportionately devastate our underserved communities-- COVID-19, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, I am more committed than ever before to my purpose of amplifying the voiceless.”

"I am proud to be The Man of the Year because throughout my college career I have dedicated my efforts to show that you can succeed in the classroom, on campus, in your career, in your sport, and in your passions.

I’ve been working to raise the standard of a Man of Morehouse because that’s what all MOTY of the past have done. I have done this. I’ve shown it’s not only possible to don the heavy crown Morehouse places upon you, but it’s possible to wear multiple crowns. Now, I strive to raise the standard of a 'Morehouse Man,”' Turner

What is your story?

ABOUT ME

I'm originally from Bolingbrook, IL which is a suburb of Chicago. For a while, I wanted to attend UNC-Chapel Hill. To be fair, I have deep connections to Spelhouse, but Morehouse was at the bottom of my list when I applied. Long story short, I chose to enroll because of how tough both students and alumni were, the career opportunity I thought I'd have, and my admitted students' weekend experience. My experience at Morehouse was identityshifting; I mean that in the sense that some of my core qualities have evolved and a lot of habits and attitudes I had have either flipped or been eliminated. A quality I honed in my four years is the ability to find balance. I try to be balanced when it comes to different areas of my life: self, family & friends, and purposeful pursuits. Or when it comes to different skills I'm learning, hobbies I spend time on, or things I'm trying to be knowledgeable on--I've had this view for a while that "yeah, you can't be the best at everything, but if you can be nice at one thing and decent in a lot of other areas, then you're on your way to becoming a monster." In a different way, the balance concept comes into play with my attitude towards growth. I'm always looking to improve, and in all areas of my life, but I balance that out by stepping back and recognizing progress I've made or where I've made it to.

EDUCATION

2020 - Morehouse College Protégé - Program's director Morehouse Consulting Club Founder Morehouse's Office of International Education

EXPERIENCE

Being an intellectual implies that someone if they're able, is constantly learning and is critical toward everything. In my time at Morehouse, that's looked like me fully engaging in my studies, leaning into the liberal arts component of the Morehouse academic experience, and most importantly, learning outside of the classroom. However, implicit in any of these titles are actions and results. As an intellectual, thinker, or academic, you have to "be 'bout that action." Whether it's through teaching, creating or developing knowledge in the academy, or reaching folks through some type of programming, you should have something to show for all the knowledge you claim to have.

What is your story?

What are your future plans/goals?

Professionally, my plan is to get my Ph.D., become a university professor--specifically at my hometown HBCU, Southern University--and eventually a university president OR be the director of the National Museum of African American History and Culture.

My dream is I want to research, direct, and write for documentary and drama films that focus on the beauty and complexity of Black life. Overall, I want my life's work to be centered around using teaching and story-telling to be a healing force for Black people and a transgressive force against white supremacy.

Intellectuls

My name is Asia Reese, and I am a Black queer woman from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I think of myself as a relaxed, thoughtful person, and I have a tendency to be playful when I'm comfortable. I was primarily raised by my grandmothers when I was young. Since I was a little girl, they always pushed me to read and be considerate of humanity through their Christian lens. Their dedication to learning, compassion, and the struggle for liberation is what I try to emulate every day. Throughout my life, I thrived in school and extracurriculars. I currently am the vice-president of the Spelman Honors Program Student Association and a Social Justice Fellow. I organize with Freedom University to push against the oppression of undocumented folks and volunteer at Dunbar Elementary to be close with Black children navigating an antiBlack world. On average, you can find me listening to music, celebrating Black American Southern culture, and quoting Toni Morrison lol.f body text

What does being an intellectual?

To me, being an intellectual means that you are committed to being better. It is a humble stance to always grapple with the fact that there is still much to learn. It is also the pursuit of trying to imagine a new world and possibilities outside of the parameters that society has set. This question makes me think of a Frantz Fanon quote, “Mastery of language affords remarkable power” because Fanon teaches us that our ability to imagine a world is limited to the language and grammar we possess to describe it. Being an intellectual is imagining new worlds and possibilities and the interior struggle to end the oppressive world we currently endure.

What is your story?

Spelman College Class of 2021 Sociology and Anthropology Major Baton Rouge, Lousiana

Stephen Seymour, rising Senior Physics Major from Nassau, The Bahamas. That’s who I am. I spent years of hard work back home working to pursue a college education in the U.S that would develop me as a man and a STEM professional, I found that in Morehouse. From freshman year to now, I spend most of my time on campus pushing myself and my peers to create things that most would deem to be impossible for us. Within my first two months of being at Morehouse, I had already led a team to win 2nd place at a national STEM competition with an original design of a High-Voltage water purification system. Since then, I’ve just kept pushing the boundaries of what’s possible while also influencing my peers to do the same.

Whenever I see something that works, I try to make it work for the people around me as well, that’s the only way we will ever truly grow as a collective, through intentional collaboration. So in that way, I love bringing people together to work on impactful projects in STEM

Asia Reese

What does being an Intellectual mean to you?

Being an engineer, to me, is a way of life with the service to the global community at its core.

You look at everything from the internet to roads to running water; that’s the work of engineers.

Could you imagine life without us? To me, being an engineer means being in service to one’s community, to the advancement of the technologies and processes that protect and improve the quality of human life. Engineering for me though is more than just sitting at a computer and designing some software or machinery, the real beauty in the craft lies in working with other engineers and even non-engineers to simply solve problems for the people we hold dear to us.

It’s a highly collaborative form of expression where I get selflessly to blend my creativity with the creativity of others to produce something greater than us all and in service to us all. Being an engineer means solving the problems that no one wants to solve, simply to push our society a little further away from the wrong direction and a little closer to the right direction.

How do you deviate from the status quo in a positive & unique way?

When I first came to the AUC and asked if there were any engineering design teams, people just brushed me off and tried to get me to believe that I expected too much out of the AUC. Meeting some of the most intelligent students I’ve ever met in my classes told me that there’s no reason why we couldn't showcase our talents on a national scale. The greatest resource we have here in the AUC is our genius students. They’re top in the nation if you ask me. That’s what they tell them at PWI’s and I'll never say any different for us; if you take a look at our work, you’d agree. Having this strong conviction and belief in the abilities and the value of blacks in STEM is what makes me different. I challenge the status quo by being confident in being the only black student team at a national STEM competition from a school that isn't a “big name” in STEM. We are capable.

What is your story?

I was born in Memphis, Tennessee to a working-class family that instilled in me that perseverance triumphs all obstacles. Growing up I was a shy kid that just wanted to be noticed.

I never shined academically, athletically, or socially. In middle school, I was constantly bullied and I always felt alone. Eventually, I was able to discover that I had an ability to make people laugh, and I used that skill to gain the attention and friendships I desired. I became a class clown so that people would notice me. I am a motivational speaker that uses my past experiences and struggles to uplift others. I believe this is my purpose because although we may not all experience great success, we have all experienced pain. And It is through sharing that pain and connecting to one another that we as people can truly uplift each other.

I believe the title intellectual is reserved for an individual who is able to recognize the socialized shackles placed around their thoughts and think beyond them. An intellectual is introspective, is not afraid to challenge oneself, and is capable of addressing internal biases to uncover truths that may be hidden. I’ve been personally told I have the gift of gab. My gift is the ability to build relationships with others and ignite fires within the people I encounter. I utilize this gift to advance our culture by dedicating my life to being the support system that helps others achieve their dreams.

How do you deviate from the status quo in a positive & unique way?

What does being an Intellectual mean to you?

Morehouse College Class of 2020 Psychology Memphis, Tennesse

II will be working for Deloitte as a Technology Consulting Analyst. My future goals include obtaining an MBA from Stanford Business School and becoming a full-time motivational speaker. I also intend to start a consulting firm that utilizes research in positive psychology to help businesses improve worker productivity and satisfaction. I treat others how I wish to be treated. The status quo constantly forces us to seek status and positions of power to feel accomplished. This inadvertently causes those at the top to view those at the bottom with disdain. As I attempt to climb and aspire higher I always remember to treat everyone with the same respect. This deviates from the status quo because our culture does not value everyone, even though everyone is valuable to our culture.

What is your story?

Maya Tureaud

Spelman College Class of 2020 Health Sciences Major Convent, Louisiana

I am from Convent, a very small town in Louisiana. I am the daughter of Ken and Cynthia Tureaud and the sister of Ken Tureaud, Jr. I come from two very hard-working, skilled, and loving families. My family exposed my brother and I to the world through traveling, being by our side to study, and so much more. Throughout my years in elementary, middle, and high school, I danced, played three instruments, ran track, and was a member of many clubs! In my spare time, I enjoyed farming and planting, riding four-wheelers with my brother, traveling, and learning new skills. Though I moved to Atlanta to attend Spelman and, most recently, North Carolina for nursing school, my interests have stayed the same, and I am still a country girl that moved to the city. You can catch me riding with the windows down on a stressful day listening to zydeco music or one of my favorite artists, Tucka, to relieve stress! My roots are important to me, and I am proud of where I came from. Because of the work of those that came before me, I have learned the ropes and become a successful young woman today.

What is your gift?

My gift is being a healer. From a young age, I have always loved to heal. My very first career choice in preschool was a veterinarian. You could always catch me helping an injured or distressed animal.

This was my choice until middle school. I felt that my impact in the world would be greater working with humans. I also noticed during this time that people had the tendency to gravitate toward me when they are in need of consoling or physical healing. It gives me the joy to know that people trust me in this way, and it makes me happy to help people feel better. This is the reason why nursing is my career choice. Every day, I will have the opportunity to make people well and happy. Upon entering the field, I will use my gift to help those who are overlooked and not properly accounted for.

I want to make a difference in Black mothers' and infants' lives to raise healthy generations to come.

How do you deviate from the status quo in a positive & unique way?

I am independent. I thrive in social environments and love interacting with people; however, some of my best work is a product of working alongside myself. I am a thinker, and I contemplate decisions a lot in my free time. I tend to think of why things are when I'm by myself, connecting the dots of everything I can think of. I also love to travel alone and take myself out on dates. I have come to love myself as an individual and have committed myself to learn even more. This has made me a more self-aware intellectual. I enjoy seeing life from a different perspective and find beauty in it. I write down these thoughts so that, later in life, I can look back and see the growth that I have experienced.

Sometimes there is a need to disconnect from the outside world, and this is my personal way of doing so.
