GEORGE MCLAURIN (1894-1968), the first black man admitted to the University
of Oklahoma in 1948, was forced to sit in a corner far from his white
classmates.

Despite the sabotage, McLaurin’s name remains on the honor roll as one of
the three best students of the university.

These are his words:

"Some colleagues would look at me like I was an animal, no one would give
me a word, the teachers seemed like they were not even there for me, nor
did they always take my questions when I asked. But I devoted myself so
much that afterwards, they began to look for me to give them explanations
and to clear their questions."

Don't worry about your current situation, be determined to make a
difference with a loud Success"

When God honours you, witches and wizards will stay clear."

While working on his studies, he appealed to the Supreme Court by saying
that these conditions impaired his ability to learn. The court finally
agreed in a 1950 ruling, which annulled segregation at the graduate level.

The George McLaurin Male Leadership Conference is named after him.

LESSON: Forcing yourself to be accepted by people is a waste of time. Just
focus and add value to yourself and people shall come seeking your help..
