Read! In the name of the Lord and
Cherisher, who created-
Created Man, out of a (mere) clot
of congealed blood:
Proclaim! And thy Lord is most
bountiful,-
He who taught (the use of) the
pen,-
Taught man that which he knew
not.
Nay, but man doth transgress all
bounds,
In that he looketh upon himself as
self-sufficient.
Verily, to thy Lord is the return (of
all).
Sura XCVI - lad 1-8

THE MAROON
VOLUME 1 NUMBER 2
MISSION
To re-visit the tradition of the Afrikan griot by documenting the actions, tradi
tions, iniquities and ideologies of the 21st Century Morehouse man. Though our
ultimate duty is to serve our community, we refuse to relinquish our autonomy to
it, nor will we acquiesce to the private agendas of individual people, organizations,
or political entities. As we supply a reflective surface for Morehouse 1 to examine her
external and internal concerns, we also provide a looking glass through which the
globe can analyze our pitfalls and conquests. The Maroon Tiger endeavors to main
tain the highest levels of journalistic quality, moral integrity, and visual diversity in
an all-inclusive journal which alienates no member of this community who embod
ies our ancestral spirit. In short, our goal is melanated honesty, a higher truth whose
alternative is genocidal.
