[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To be fair, I actually googled J&J. Not much on the website as clearly it's as outdated and silly as I thought it was.

Tell me, who are your notable members? Obama? Michelle? Clarence Thomas? Ben Carson? Oprah?

Exactly![/quote]

Lol--I'll humor you hater.  :roll:

Let's start with the basics:  Oprah has never been a member of J&J because she doesn't have children.  I'm not sure if Ben Carson or Clarence Thomas have been members, but I certainly hope not.

So, besides judges, lawyers, doctors, educators, entrepreneurs and politicians, specific past and present J&J members include, but are not limited to:

--Debra Lee (President and CEO of BET)
--Phylicia Rashad
--Debbie Allen
--The wives of many mayors, including David Dinkins and Andrew Young
--Alma Brown (wife of late Commerce Secretary Ron Brown--under Clinton)
--Lynn Whitfield
--U.S. Senator Cory Booker (J&J alum)
--Rachel Robinson (Jackie Robinson's widow)
--Betty Shabazz (Malcolm X's widow)
--Dr. Charles Drew (his great-grandchildren are current members).  Dr. Drew invented the blood bank and blood plasma storage
--Randall Kennedy (noted Harvard Law professor)

Not every notable AA is a member of J&J (duh!), but we have done ok.  It's clearly not the right organization for you, so just keep it moving.
