I just got back from the Unity Celebration in the DAC and I have to tell you all that it was simply incredible.
We
had brilliant poets and poetry reading that would leave you breathless.
We honored both staff and students who are doing wonderful work in
bringing this college together as a cohesive, meaningful community. We
had original music of incredible depth, emotion and maturity. We were
treated to a lovely group performance by the Poetry Club. Overall, we
had lots of people joining together in an event that was just, well, The
Bomb.
Bravo to everyone involved. What a fabulous experience. I wish I could bottle the feelings I'm taking away from this.

In other words,
a big thank you to everyone who was involved in our Black History Month Unity Celebration! Overall I think we did a fantastic job and the audience was quite moved by our words. It really just goes to show that language really can foster the emotion and passionate drive it takes to change the world.
