Title: Sisters in the Struggle Post by: SolidGoldFunk on July 24, 2007, 01:05:47 am I wanted to make some sims that reflected real people that I knew when I was growing up in NYC. I call these two Sisters in the Struggle. They pretty much try to make black people and anyone who will listen aware of their "struggle." These are the 5 percenters who tries to warn every black person that it's the white man's fault that they are standing outside preaching on 125th Street. I thought these people were hilarious so I decided to make them.
The first one is Imani Dijoub who has a twin sister named Naomi and grew up in Beverly Hills. She's 32 years old and she moved to 9984 Diamond Heights with her sister to save money for the brother's and sisters to rise above the struggle. She is the Street Renowned author of "Why do We Have to Struggle?" and the sequel "I Still Wanna Know Why We Gotsta Struggle?" Name: Imani Dijoub Age: 32 DOB: April 19, 1975 Place of Birth: Beverly Hills, CA Occupation: Sister in the Struggle/ Writer Credits: Skin by Enayla (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=132149) Lipgloss by Helaene (http://www.helaene.com) Eyes by 3dConsortium (http://exnemsims.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=175) The Second one is Kenya Sharpe. Kenya is 24 years old. Before moving in with Imani Dijoub in Diamond Heights, she was a street artist on 125th Street in Harlem, NYC where she is a native. She thought she could use her artistic and charismatic skills to spread the word of the struggle. Name: Kenya Sharpe Age: 24 DOB: May 29, 1983 Place of Birth: Harlem, NYC Occupation: Sister in the Struggle/ Teacher Credits: Skin by Louis (http://louis.new21.net/) Circle Earrings by Elau (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=216257) Makeup by Sussisogoodsims (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=210099) and Helaene (http://www.helaene.com) Eyes by Joanne Dyer (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=216775) French Manicure by SimChic (http://www.insimenator.net/www.simchic.com) The sims are packaged with Maxis Clothes and hair. Go here (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=215234) if you want Nouks Dreads and here (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=211401) if you want Rock Steady's afro puff... Hope you enjoy playing with them. I have some Brothers in the Struggle coming soon:D Naomi is not a part of the Struggle! If you just want Imani (the light skinned one then click on ImaniDijoub). If you just want Kenya (the darker one then just click on Kenya)... Again, have fun! Title: Sisters in the Struggle Post by: kathy on July 24, 2007, 03:50:05 pm Beautiful!

Hehe, talking about "the struggle" and coming from beverly hills. Haha... I will. I just finished making the Brothers in the Struggle and I'm going to move them in next door to the sisters. I'm also going to make them as kids so we can see where they grew up and everything. I don't know where I would post that though... I'll find out. :) Title: Sisters in the Struggle Post by: newtosims on October 04, 2007, 03:52:37 pm Great job.
