Black History Month celebrated through music and dance

The WACC Lobby resonated with the sounds of pounding music,
stamping feet and bursts of applause at a Black History Month music and dance tribute, held Feb. 23 and sponsored by the Association of Multicultural Members of Partners (AMMP).

The award-winning children's dance troupes Status Quo, Nova and Baby-Dolls from the Stajez Center for the Performing Arts in Mattapan, were the guest performers at the celebration, delighting the audience with a number of uplifting and spiritual dance pieces. The popular Voices of MGH choir also made a return appearance, singing "Oh Freedom" and "Oh Happy Day."
