While social media algorithms prevent us from articulating her statement verbatim, she alluded to doing to white people what has been done to our people for centuries. Since then, a ‘Sister Souljah moment’ refers to when politicians repudiate a person, group or position within their political party, thereby distancing themselves from what might be considered ‘extreme.’ In this 1992 clip of ‘The Phil Donahue Show,’ Sister Soulja (@sistersouljah) spoke in raw terms about the state of Black people in the US. Sister Souljah, 60, has made clear from her teen years that she disagrees with how Africans—both on the continent and in the diaspora—are portrayed in school curricula. While attending Rutgers University, she worked in Zimbabwe and Mozambique, and visited South Africa and Zambia. She also joined the global anti-apartheid movement, which forced Rutgers University to divest $3.6 million from financial holdings companies doing business in the apartheid regime. Sister Souljah was also part of the movement that ensured the US state of New Jersey divested $1 billion from financial holdings in South Africa. The rap group Public Enemy featured this multi-talented sister in several tracks. In 1992, she released an album, too. Beyond her music, Sister Souljah has written a memoir and fiction. Her bestselling novel, ‘The Coldest Winter Ever,’ offers an unflinching look at life in the inner city, amplifying the voices of the marginalised. Plus, as an activist, she has developed and helped finance youth programmes.
