What

The Black Student Association at Canterbury High School is hosting a number of events for Black History Month, including a fashion show, talent show, guest speakers and a potluck lunch. 

In their words: “We intend to organize these events to inspire pride of African heritage. We want to touch each and every one of our school peers, especially ones of African descent as they are an overwhelming minority. We wish to encourage the education of black history and culture in a fun, pedagogical manner.”
