Colorado's African Communities

A Taste of Africa at University of Colorado at Boulder

This past Friday the African Students' Association at the University of Colorado at Boulder hosted the 6th Annual Taste of Africa. The event featured performances by hip-hop group Democracy in Dakar and the Pan African Drum and Dance Ensemble, among others.

Hundreds of Coloradans gathered in the recreation center at CU Boulder to enjoy the music, dance, poetry, and fashion. Guests were treated to food provided by local restaurants, food from various countries including Senegal, Ghana, Nigeria, Ethiopia, and Kenya.

The music and dance performances were energizing, and before long people were on their feet and dancing. Long lines at the food tables did not dampen the spirits of diners happy to receive a free meal made up of such diverse dishes.

All in all, it was a great night of celebration of African music, food, fashion and fun. We're definitely looking forward to the next Taste of Africa.

Many thanks to the African Students' Association for organizing the event.
