Lavell Crawford, comic
Fresh off a recent appearance on The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore, comic Lavell Crawford showed up to SU looking like a college professor. But he quickly reminded everyone of what he came to do by riffing on subjects such as fat people falling in the snow, Halloween in different neighborhoods, and how his mother often made threats as a ventriloquist.
The question we want to know is does Crawford have a line of t-shirts with his catch phrase, “Two Chops to the Throat?”

Throwback Thursday: Tavis Writes
February 5th, 2015“Leadership is not a license to do less; it is a responsibility to do more.”
-Simon Sinek (Leaders Eat Last)
Tavis Smiley, Author, Radio/TV host (circa 2005) in Washington, DC
If you enjoyed the film “Selma,” which paints an intimate portrait of the coalitions and strategies of the Civil Rights Movement, we suggest you move next to “Death of a King” by Tavis Smiley. His book gives a revealing look at the last year of Dr. King’s life (the good, the bad and the unforeseen).
Smiley is pictured here in Washington, DC in 2005.
