BCC’s Downtown Center hosted a Block Party on February 28th to celebrate Black History Month. The celebration was organized by DTC’s African American Student Union and Student Affairs, and it included Gospel music by Marianne Asiamigbe from Central Campus Student Success, African drumming and dancing (with audience participation!) with Drumming by Indakthe, music by DJ Opie from Power96, and, of course, food. Broward Health Dept. gave free HIV and hepatitis testing all day. Broward Board of Elections showed students how to use the new touch-screen voting booths. And Police Sgt. Reeder gave demonstrations on personal safety. You’ll notice in the pictures that people are dressed warmly for the unusually cold day. Also notice that there was some serious eating going on!
