Activist Proposal

As a member of Designed by Grace Gospel Choir, which is branched off of the Multicultural Center at USI, our main goal is to show how people can come together as one body no matter the race, age, or gender.

Our spring concert is coming up in April and I made it a personal goal for myself to invite people other than family and friends. The main purpose of this group is mixing up cultures and backgrounds, so thats exactly what I plan to do. Of course I'll send invites to close family and friends, but my top priority is extending an invitation to those that I don't normally assosciate with. Who knows, this could draw attention to the choir and possibly gain us a couple new members!

I guess what I'm really trying to do is use this function as kind of a meet-n-greet type of thing. You never know who could be a blessing in your life, people come out of nowhere but could have a big impact on you!

GO PINK!


In my English class we were told to write about a time that we've participated in a public discourse.Though I've been involved in alot of public discourses, the one I chose to write about was pretty recent.


About 2 weeks ago on a Saturday, USI's girls basketball team had a game and what made this game extra special was it was a game that supported the fight against breast cancer. Being that I have family members that fight breast cancer everyday, Im always eager to help in anyway when it comes to this disease, so I was excited to go to this game!All I had to do besides show up was to wear pink; and for every person wearing pink money was raised for a breast cancer patient! Anytime Im involved in something that could possibly make a difference in someone else life makes me feel good about what I've done, and this day was definately a time I felt GOOD!
