February is Black History Month. Throughout this month various activities and programs are done to help make people aware and proud of the history of the African culture. This year, the Seton Hill Branch of the NAACP is putting on big presentation in light of Black History Month. It is Entitled "On Being Black". The show will include theatrical performances from members of the NAACP as well as dance and a special musical guest "Liberation". We will take you on a cultural journey from Slavery, to the Civil Rights Movement and on to Today.
The NAACP has been working extremely hard to make sure that representation for Black History Month is educational as well as entertaining. We are encouraging everyone to try to attend. This event promises to be a cultural experiece you will never forget.
The date of the show is Friday February 13, 2004 in Cecelian Hall at 7:00. $5 admission ($3 with college I.D.).
Please come and show some support. Remember, this isnt just for one kind of person, but for the benefit of everyone and we will be honored to have your presence at the show. Thank you.
Come Celebrate Black History Month

Thank you for posting this, Carla Rae.
I have heard mixed reviews about this event. The signs' accuracy (ie. the Rosa Parks sign) and name of the presentation specifically(some of the African-American interviewees I spoke with for my Setonian article said that the title denotes that "being black" is a novelty--they disagree--it is a life).
