A member of Africa’s Legacy performing her spoken word
Last night, I went to the second annual United performance. It is a huge show put on by all of the multicultural groups on campus. It is a way for all of us to show support to one another and stand united.
I really loved different poetry pieces that people performed; Melanie, a member of Allies, performed one about black lesbian pride that I thought was awesome!
The dancing and singing was beautiful as usual. There were parts where audience members were allows on stage to do the dances as well. I went up on stage and learned a dance from the Asian Community Coalition. Also, the Black Student Union had soul music and a soul train line which I could not resist participating in.
The most important thing of all was the food! They had corn bread, meat balls, rice, kabobs, and much more. I definitely should have gone back for seconds.
My friend was in the fashion show as part of a sixties lesbian couple. She had the perfect outfit for it. I tried to help her with her hair before the show to create the perfect bump, but she was able to make it work regardless.

It was such an awesome thing to see here on campus! I love watching seeing how supportive people on campus can be. United is one of my favorite performances that takes place at McDaniel.
