Welcome to the pages of OUT FRONT MAGAZINE! Our cover is embraced with our 44th President of the United States of America, Barack Hussein Obama. How appropriate for our Annual Black Heritage Edition. As we pay tribute to this moment in history, it would be helpful to know just who Barack Hussein Obama is. Where did he come from and what does he stand for? A good starting point is to read Dreams from My Father and The Audacity of Hope both written by Barack Obama. You can preview both books beginning on page 12. From “Yes We Can” to “Yes We Did,” one can ponder on what the presidential election of Barack Obama means to race relations in America beginning on page 19. “Hope” and “Change” are both needed in order for our nation to survive.
Becoming a veterinarian was the destiny for Dr. Marclyn Sims Box. With declaration, a mind in motion, hard work and dedication, your dream can be fulfilled. Read Dr. Marclyn Sims Box’s story beginning on page 27. The Pensacola Chapter of the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc. has done it again. Last year they awarded fourteen scholarships at their annual hat show. Lean how “Men and Women in Church Hats Bring Fashion and Scholars to Center stage” beginning on page 36.
OUT FRONT MAGAZINE will continue to strive in our commitment to give our readers the best coverage of issues, historical events and entertainment that affect the African-American experience.
PRAY FOR OUR COMMUNITIES; OUR NATION; OUR WORLD
