If you’re in DC, you are probably looking out your window and seeing the more than usual hustle and bustle of the city. You might think to yourself, “Man, DuPont Circle looks a lot Blacker than usual,” or, as Haley Joel Osment would say, “I see Black people.” There is a reason why so many beautiful, dark skinned brothers and sisters are crowding the streets, sitting next to you on the metro, and buying you drinks at the club. IT’S DC BLACK PRIDE!!!! There are events all week like tonight’s fashion show and speed dating, film festivals and poetry slams, concerts, dance parties, my oh my I'm overwhelmed. The don’t miss event will be Sunday’s Liberty-Unity-Strength festival on Francis Field on N Street – look out for HRC’s booth. How could I forget!? Fantasia from American Idol and the Broadway hit musical The Color Purple will be performing Sunday night. Just as an FYI, tickets are a mint unless you buy them in advance.
If you want to come to DC Black Pride but you would rather work it than play it, contact Shelena Williams – Black Pride’s President Courtney Snowden’s first lady – for volunteer opportunities. We need all the help we can get on any day we can get it.
If you are not in DC, then make like a Hostess truck and haul your sweet buns over here!
