Sister Souljah (born Lisa Williamson, Bronx, New York) is an American author, activist, rapper and film producer. She gained lasting fame in 1992, when Bill Clinton, running as the presumptive Democratic Party nominee for President of the United States, criticized her remarks about race in the United States. The incident was the basis for the phrase "Sister Souljah moment", referring generally to a politician's calculated public repudiation of an extreme person, statement, group, or position associated with the politician's own party.
