I Was Asked To Sit by the Corner But I Never Gave Up – George McLaurin

YOU HAVE NO REASON TO GIVE UP

In this photo was George McLaurin, the first black man admitted to the University of Oklahoma in 1948, was forced to sit in the corner far from his white classmates.

But his 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 explanation and to clear their questions.

Later came out as the best as they all had no reason to become humbled before him including the teachers.

Note: You have no reason to give up

They may look down on you today, they may not support your goals or dreams, they may laugh or segregate you today, but never stop believing and striving towards your dreams.

Keep believing in the beauty of your dreams and forge on.

Ignore the Naysayers, they will surely be humbled at what you will later turn out to be.

There’s no limit to what you can achieve.

Let this motivate you Also do so by sharing to others.
