THIS LOVE THING..
It is not common to find an African man (atleast in BG) with a slim Caucasian woman or an African woman with a Caucasian man. What is even more rare is to find an African, male or female, dating an African American, male or female.
Tonight we are exploring the African mindset of dating and relationships in terms of interracial and intercultural ones. We all want to hear your point of view, so come out tonight.
FASHION SHOW
Africa! its time for you to shine; sign up for the fashion show and show off what your culture has to offer.
We meet in 201A BTSU @ 6:00pm. come and enjoy this wonderful evening with us as we take a tour into the African mindset of love and romance.
