Metro Urban Flashback: Sister Souljah & The Phil Donahue Show, “The Issue is Race”

Sister Souljah: “The Issue Is Race”

Featuring: Sister Souljah, Phil Donahue show, 1992 Panel discussion addressing Blacks in business.

Synopsis: Raptivist (one who uses the art of rapping to promote, impede, or direct social, political, economic, or environmental change) Sister Souljah preaches some of her strongest and unapologetic views on America’s social system, education, what racism truly is and more.

Harriet Tubman meets Sojourner Truth, Sister Souljah’s passion and sincerity for the advancement, education, and freedom of her people-African people- evidently justifies her unapologetic and sometimes cold way of telling it like it is. Below, step into what truly happens when the educated elite sit down to discuss politics, society, and so much more.

Ultimately, this was the most intellectual, yet hardcore discussion I’ve ever seen.
