Sidney (Sanaa Lathan) and Dre (Taye Diggs) witness the birth of hip-hop on a New York street corner as kids, and the magic of that moment and their love for the music provide the groundwork for their friendship and their futures - hers as a prominent hip-hop music journalist, his as a successful record-company executive.
Sidney tries to come to terms with the situation, much to the chagrin of her sassy, voice-of-reason cousin (Queen Latifah).
When Sidney starts her own relationship with a smitten NBA star (played by Boris Kodjoe, also of Showtime's "Soul Food"), it's Dre's turn to be jealous.

 WORLD WAR II NORMANDY CAMPAIGN OF 1944
The 'Sidney' of the book's title was Corporal Sidney Bates, VC, a young, working-class, cockney boy who lived in Camberwell, South London, England.
Sidney fought his last battle on August 6, 1944, near the hamlet of Pavee hidden deep in the bocage about 5 miles east of Vire.
Sadly, Sidney died of his wounds two days later so the award, like so many awards of the Victoria Cross, was a posthumous one.

When John Strassburger was finishing his history degree at Bates and pondering a career in college teaching, he sought out Professor of History and Government Ernest Muller for advice about graduate schools.

In his first year as president of Ursinus, Strassburger is finding much to preserve and praise, some careful and hard choices of resource allocation to be made, and the expected tidal wave of small issues that end up on his desk.
