#27 - I.S.I.S, Goldie and Forrest Gump
DARCOVA MATRICE KING TRIPLETT
Line Name (s) and how you got them:
I am Mrs. Dr. Darcova Matrice King Triplett. My line number is 27 and while they called me Goldie and Forrest Gump, my favorite line name is I.S.I.S. They called me Goldie because I totally rocked my open-face gold tooth. They called me Forrest Gump because they loved my southern drawl. And from my understanding, somebody somewhere somehow thought that I kinda carried an ambiance of arrogance and deemed me I.S.I.S.- the acronym for I Said I’m the Shit.
What's your favorite memory online?
My favorite memory of being on line was the actual delivery of the announcement that I was on line. Peculiar as it may seem and completely baffling to me (at the time), I first got word that I made the line from……. Todd!
Here's where you BRAG about yourself.
The most interesting thing about me is not that I’ve been married to my College Sweetheart for 14 years and we have 3 Adorable KandyGirls. It is not that I’ve been in the field of education for 18 years as a teacher, principal and college professor. While it’s good to know that I’ve published 4 books and a magazine, I edit manuscripts and I’ve lived in 3 states as well as Europe, neither of those equate to the most interesting thing about me. I’m a certified Zumba Instructor, I write Poetry, make jewelry, host Painting Parties and my Passion is Painting but nope, that ain’t it. My work with the STRUT Movement and with the Brains and Beauty Mentoring Program is empowering, but the most interesting?... NAH! Although some would say the most interesting thing about me is that I sleep in blinks, I disagree. In my opinion, the most interesting thing about Darcova is that I embrace the notion of Evolution and I look forward to my Constant Change- to opportunities that allow me to get to know me More.
Knowing what you know now, what advice would you give your 1995 self?
I would say: Self! Get the Range Rover Now!
What's the one thing every woman should have ...and what's the one thing every Delta woman should have?
Every woman should have the conviction to Detach and Flyyy. Every Delta Woman should have enough sense to know that wearing the Letters don’t make her better than the next… it simply distinguishes her from the rest.
Name one thing on your bucket-list that you will complete during our 20th Anniversary year? Related to Delta or not.
During our 20th Anniversary year, I will love myself to health by completing (at least) one 5k per month.

What line sister(s) do you wish you would have gotten to know better during our process?
I believe that our process was strategic, divine, served its purpose and perfect- as is. With that, I appreciate the interactions with all y’all that continue to show up.
To be quite honest, naming me I.S.I.S. in 1995 was rather premature, however, Prophetic at its best for the longer I live the more apparent it becomes to me that it ain’t arrogance when it’s the truth. #WinkingWavingPointingSmilingAndBlowingKisses
