Women History Month Celebration: Road to the Drum
|
In celebration of Women's History Month, Cheza Nami presents "Road to the Drum", a collaborative piece that celebrates the feminine power of AFRICAN ROOTS with drumming, song, and dance.
It also celebrates the shared journey of four women of African descent (Kanukai Chigamba, from Zimbabwe, Mandjou Kone from Mali/Burkina Faso, Ciiku Ndungu-Case from Kenya, and Dandha da Hora from Brazil), who found a common voice through their shared interest of promoting their cultures to local communities. This piece reminds us that we all have individual strength, but in the spirit of Ubuntu, we are stronger together! Concert Cost: FREE-2-ATTEND Concert Link: Cheza Nami Youtube Channel Live performance from The 418 Project Marketing support by the Bankhead Theater Filming/sound support by SambaDá |
