MLK Night with Mr. Byron Pitts... CNN Reporter

I just want to start off this paper by emphasizing how great this Program was. Mr. Bryon Pitts is one solid, well rounded human being. He is so down to earth but yet so much of an important man to our society. He is intelligent, well driven and humble. Mr. Pitts carries himself with great class and a wonderful outlook on life. He is one inspiring human and we all can learn from him. His back ground in life is more trying than the average mans. He has seen things and been many places that more than half the world will never see in a lifetime. He has been to 38 different countries, has seen people stoned to death, seen criminals been put to death, has seen mass killings, and has seen firsthand the happenings of the terror attacks of September 11. To witness these types of tragic events, takes a person of great character, inner strength and spirituality, and this man had it all. You could just feel his positive vibe takeover the audience. It was just a powerful night in fisher auditorium. His struggles in his lifetime made him such a powerful and humbled man. When he was growing up he suffered from a stuttering issue in his speech and a lack of intelligence. But he worked hard to overcome it all, with the helping hand of his mother and is now and Emmy winning reporter and a very successful man willing to help anyone even students. At the end of the night he gave out his own personal email address to the whole
audience. It is was just a great evening that I wish all could have attended, because no matter who you where, you could have taken something from his speech and could have received some enlightenment from Mr. Byron Pitts. I just cannot say enough about this man, he was just spectacular. Then along with Mr. Pitts where many speeches and dances that were in respect to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the African American Culture. Some were done by students and some were done by Professors but no matter who they were done by, they all did a great job in respects to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the African American Heritage.
