emotionally rousing speech about
youth leadership and a packed itin­
erary that rivaled her husband's trav­
eling schedules, said otherwise.
On her second overseas busi­
ness trip without the president, and
to the black motherland, America’s
first black first lady was warmly re­
ceived everywhere she went, often
with song and to the point of almost
being moved to tears.
She spoke passionately about
her causes, tickled and danced with
some of the youngest Africans, and
sat with presidents and first ladies,
including Nelson Mandela, South
Africa's former president and a hero
of the anti-apartheid movement.
She held 20 public events in five
days, landed on newspaper front
pages and was fashionably dressed,
as usual, including outfits with an
African connection.
In between all that, Mrs. Obama
squeezed in dinner .with gal-pal
Oprah Winfrey, who was in South
Africa for unrelated business.
It was the first lady's biggest
moment on the world stage.
She was reluctant to grade herself,
telling reporters that it embarrasses
her to "talk about my stride and being
on my game. "But she does realize her
power as first lady and says it’s a time-
stamped opportunity that she doesn't
want to waste.
