Last Saturday, the students of BCAL attended the 6th Annual Youth Conference, where we were treated to a hearty breakfast, informed about other programs throughout the borough, attended workshops, and were treated to a special live performance of original songs written and performed by our very own students!

 

Youth of today, leaders of tomorrow!

 

We represented the program and handed out pamphlets!

 

Jessica organized a workshop for the girls.

 

We talked about what makes us unique!

 

Some powerful messages were expressed!

 

Nona also hosted a cooking workshop!

The Black Brooklyn Renaissance was crazy. They had all types of dance from the 1960 – 2010 mixed into african dance. They were trying to say how all dances and things in the black culture are derived from africa. It was mad hot they had the stiltwalkers of Cote d’lvoire and the moko jumbie which are the tradition of Trinidad and Tobago. It was also to bring the community together. Also they were so influental that the crowd gave money for the Hatian funds.
