Rashad is best known from her role as America’s mom from "The Cosby Show" but three years ago, she gained another title - Dean of the College of Fine Arts at Howard.
I REPLAYED the part where she spoke of her mother at LEAST 10x. Omg. "It is a real gift.... to have a mother who LOVES you". I just melted at that statement.
“It’s a real gift to have a mother who loves you, and who insists - that you insist - upon achieving your human potential. “ Phylicia Rashad 👑💖🙏🏼💐#HappyMothersDay
I had the opportunity to work with her during her tenure. She's even more amazing in person. It was such a blessing for me to be in her space. Bless her!
Phylicia Rashad still looks beautiful!! and vibrant and healthy looking. Mrs. Rashad mother looks so beautiful!! 100 years old. That's a blessing from God to make 100 years of age. God bless!! Mother Allen.
If America really wants to get it right, they will find a way to honor this beautiful gem who so generously poured so much into our lives for so many years…unrewarded!!! Make it right!!!! 👸🏿 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾👸🏿
I am willing to take repossable for the one who had always been their for my very exsitens much appreciated an will be honored as such a promise will be a pormise keeped
Is she a national treasure or what? We need to do more to celebrate Dean Rashad for her continued commitment and extensive contribution to the arts and to the culture.
The manner in which Dean Rashad speaks of Chadwick Bosemen always causes me to become emotional…….Chadman was a STELLAR GENTLEMAN……An EXTRAORDINARY TALENT🖤💫✨⚡️💫
Kudos to her for getting Arts established within her 3 year term. Three years it's not a long time, they should at least given her a 5 year term. The first year in half is the previous dean agenda being established. But I'm glad she got some thing done and increased funding.
Gratitude for sharing. I recently got accepted into Howard's Master Divinity Program. Peace to Chadwick Bosemen. Peace to Debbie Allen , Phylicia Rashad and their Fam.
I love this story. Thank you for sharing this valuable story of several lives that are so impactful to the world. The pride that I am feeling as a university student in this moment.
@@yourstruly_777 Phylicia Rashad is now retiring from being dean of fine arts at Howard University. She says it is time for her to retire and that she came back to Howard a few years ago to oversee the reopening of the fine arts school which apparently was shuttered. She says now that she has a good faculty in place, a good plan for the school she feels safe leaving it in the hands of the faculty she hand picked, and she also did a good bit of fundraising ensuring some endowments that will last for several years.
Many years ago the Fine Arts program was merged with Social Sciences to consolidate resources, inc leadership & funding. However Fine Arts has always been a rich, unique highlight of Howard legacy (Debbie Allen, Ruby Dee, Taraji P., Chadwick) - deserving of its own focus & support. Dean Rashad made it happen.
@roxybryant5076 awesome!!!! I haven't kept up like I should, but it's great to hear how she has supported FA's progress. I met her at my graduation from Howard many years ago.
I LOVE this. I enjoyed this piece on Ms. Rashad. I love her and have so much respect for her and her craft. Her contribution to the entertainment world of Fine arts, Tv, film, industry and so on. She's such a pose and gracious intelligent woman in my opinion. Bless her mother and father for a job well done with their off springs.
She played a mother to all of us of a certain age. She never lost her temper (unless it was completely deserved) and displayed parent goals for a generation. The fact she never won as many awards as we felt she should have, will forever be a missed opportunity.
Ms. Rashad is an intelligent and dignified woman. She carries herself as all women of color should. She does well with any endeavour. Her parents and their parents went through a great deal to raise the children and survive daily. In this interview her Key words, "a mother/father who INSISTS that you live to YOUR full Potential." So many people of color have given up and thus do not excel to their full potential.
I am so happy and kind of sad at the same time. I am very thankful that I had all these wonderful television mothers in my life as I grew up in the 1980s. Clair Huxtable, Elyse Keaton, Maggie Seaver, and last, but certainly not least Valerie Hogan. We need these kind of tv moms on back on television badly in 2024. I wish Mrs.Rashad well in her retirement or in her next vocational endeavor.
This woman is a true icon, she has carried herself with such dignity. Truly sad she has never received the recognition she deserves but I know the Black Community appreciates her work. And I know Howard U was blessed to have her.
@@patriniacopeland6891 Ok thank u for correcting me, I grew up watching the both of them, an I was trying to remember who was the oldest, I thought it was Debbie
