Using the theme, ‘‘Roots, Achievements, and Projections, Black History Month activities at Augsburg started on Feb. 6 with a flag- raising ceremony and a ceremonial luncheon and concluded on Feb. 27 with closing ceremonies at Chapel. Other activities included a Career Day Forum, a Black Friday Dance. Gospel Night, and a Fashion and Talent Show. The activities were funded through the Black Student Union budget and fund-raisers. Ralph Crowder said that the segment of history involving Blacks has been unappreciated and misunderstood; even the Blacks don’t understand their history. Many of the events like Black History Month have become too stylized and are not taken back to the classroom to be incorporated into their education. He argues this point not on the level of morals or sensitivity of the Black race, but as a simply pragmatic and academic issue. Walter Bradley, a senior advisory board member of the Black Student Union (BSU). shared Mr. Crowder’s views on Black History Month. He said that it was not set up just for Black students, but as an educational and cultural experience for all by showing things from the Black perspective. Top: A Gospel Night guest.
