These days, getting a referral from the Internet is ten times more effective than getting a reference from your old boss. A South Sudanese student name Anok Yai has gone viral after slaying Howard University’s homecoming with her Black girl magic.
The 19-year-old sophomore studying biochemistry at Plymouth State University told reporters, “A friend of mine and I decided to travel to Washington, D.C., to attend Howard University’s Homecoming. After Yardfest ended, I began walking toward the dorms, when a photographer that goes by the name Steve ‘theSUNK’ Hall randomly started taking photos of me. While he was taking down my information, he said, ‘Today was a good day, and a couple of these photos have the potential to go viral.’ I didn’t really think much of it, so I just smiled and went on about my day.”
The next day, The Sunk shared her captivating photo and the rest is Internet history. “Before all this happened, I had around 150 followers and was getting about 20 to 30 likes on each photo, and then suddenly, these numbers skyrocketed in a matter of hours,” Yai said.
