College student wins "Debate Team" advancement
by pretending to be Kola Boof.
http://www.newsreview.com/sacramento/Content?oid=607706
*Though all of Kola's books sell their highest
direct-to-universities, we're amazed at the
college use of Kola's autobiography and did
not expect it to be "studied".

Nafisa:
It is not quite accurate to say she "pretended" to be Kola--she honestly interpreted one of her pieces.
Out of sight, though. It shows that Kola Boof is becoming part of the warp and woof of our culture.
And to think I knew her when... |

Hello Mr. Hayden.
You need to telephone Robert Wright about
your library situation in St. Louis. You
have his number if I'm correct?
As well, the "piece" is autobiographical,
it's Kola, so the student was acting out
Kola and we hear was quite impressive in
answering the challenge of other debaters
in her responses "as Kola".
The other debaters, I am told, had to call
her "Kola" and discuss Kola's life.
Do you still think I'm inaccurate?
