No doubt many of you have heard the Staple Singers and
Diana Rosa suggest through song that we can help to make the
world a better place by reaching out and taking the hand of a
fellow human being. And through the years. Blacks who wert oh
an upward and onward career path have been admonished to
reach back and help someone else up the ladder of success, But I
wonder how many of ua understand this challenge of reaching '
back. Does It mean being charitable with your money? Yes,
sometimes we must be willing to sharp our money with those
who are still struggling to rid themselves of a depressed lifestyle.
On occasions, It wlU require nothing more than some of your
time for listening and/or making suggestions as to how he or she
’ can overcome. And at times, we may "reach out” in a positive
way by "opening the door of opportunity" for someone else.v
Please bear with me as I give an example of opening doors.
The Georgetown University Basketball Tfeam has been a dom
lnant force In collegiate basketball for the past several years.
Their successes have given Coach John Thompson favorable
Identification as a leader who molds winners In athletic ability
and character. His team has won national championships, and
he has been honored as Coach of the%ar. But John Thompson
was not content to rest on his laurels. He has used his fame and
prestige aaa “tool” to help a needy but worthy Black institution
—our colleges and universities. Coach Thompson Included a
Black college on the Georgetown basketball schedule. This act
generates two positive results: (1) It identifies the existence of
Black schools and (2) the TV exposure adds to the revenues of
the Black schools. I salute Coach John Thompson for demon
strating that you can enjoy the success of a king and still be able
to walk with the “common*' mdn.
