Mali Night

Sometimes mandatory school events are quite enjoyable. My roommate has an assignment to attend a movie/dance/presentation for his poverty class. I decided to go with him because it seemed like the best way to procrastinate. It turned out to be quite an interesting night. Three Northern Cheyenne American Indians traveled to Mali, Africa to share cultures and knowledge. They put together a film of their adventure and premiered it at this Mali Night event. Some of the people that they met in Mali traveled to Bozeman for this event, and a few of the women were there as well. Food from the different cultures was served and an Indian singing group and dancers performed some of their traditional dances and songs. It was a very fun night!
