REMEMBERING WILLIAM ALLEN YOUNG'S CAREER

William has been honored with many different accolades, such as being inducted into the African American Hall of Education. He has also received the Ford Foundation Freedom Unsung Award, the NAACP Social Achievement Award, and the President's Icon Award.
Recently, he attended Sheryl Lee Ralph's 29th annual DIVA Foundation gala, where she asked Young and Brandy about the possibility of bringing "Moesha" back to life. Of course, they were excited about the idea and wish it'd be picked up for production. After all, everybody misses the classic sitcom.
