*Hugs Cold*
I should also mention that the Brothers of DMO will be sending flowers to all of the female residents of the Hazerville Senior Center in appreciation for all they have given to our children and our e-community.
*The crowd goes wild and the members of Omega Omicron stand and clap for the DMO brothers in attendance*
Please welcome special guest and international singing star Maxwell to sing the Kate Bush classic This Woman’s Work *exits the stage*

*Voice over the microphone: Woo hoo! Wasn’t that an e-treat! Ladies… ((sounds of women fanning themselves and passing out in the background)) woo! And now please welcome another very special guest, sexy singing sensation Raheem DeVaughn to sing his hit “Woman.”*
*Voice over the microphone: Let’s give another round of applause for Raheem DeVaughn. Ladies, don’t shed no tear… there’s still more. We are pleased to announce a very special e-reunion of the very talented Fugees, to sing the Robert Nestor Marley Classic “No Woman No Cry.*

The Lineage
I look in the mirror
witnessing the reaction of me
All my scars
No.......
battle wounds
of years past
and generations before me
Showing truth
defending justice
and proving love
unconditionally
From days of slaves We held our ground
Beatings
Rapings
Standing by our men
Watching our children get sold
We stood through
and surpassed
Abuse
To years of tears
Being bold
Standing for what we believed in
boycotting buses
Walking to destiny
"No coloreds here"
Washing
Baking
Overseeing
the "Silent Partners"
We did overcome
By any means necessary
Abuse
That's it
That abuse
Made them
The Harriet Tubman's
Rosa Park's
Coretta Scott King's
Shirley Chisom's
Dorothy Dandridge's
Maya Angelou's
Oprah Winfrey's
My backbone
My heritage
My past
Present
Future
I look in the mirror
Admiring my scars
Wounds
Bumps
Bruises
Proud to carry the torch
Ready to overcome
Surpass
Defeat
this next generation of
Abuse

*Voice over the microphone: Thank you Hyp! Let’s give her another round of applause*
*The members of OO gather on the stage. A slideshow displays the images of historical and contemporary women leaders, while the e-Sorors recite in unison*
For all you have done, for all you have given, for all you have dreamed and achieved, women, we salute you! We thank you for our HERstory! We thank you for your legacy! It is from you that we have come to be great in everything we do. We learn from you and try to build upon your strong foundation. You make us proud and inspire us to inspire others. Thank you for your courage, activism, song, creativity, words, skill, love, labor, hope, intelligence, talent, imagination, patience, energy and peaceful heart.
*Each member calls out the names of historical and contemporary women they admire and then pause in silence*
Thank you!!!
*The crowd applauds*
This ends our formal program. We invite you to mix and mingle, enjoy the food and drinks, and to spend time networking. As you can see we have the portraits of many historic and influential women placed around the room. Next to each picture we have provided more information about each woman and her contributions. In addition, there are several artists and painters here to create portraits of you as well. Because YOU are a part this journey. You legacy to leave… you’re e-herstory in the making. And we salute you! Happy Women’s History Month!

Asp: (stammers) Oh, um, yes. He was marvelous. Especially when he sang that one song. Um, i forgot the name of it, but you know what I'm talking about. He was da bomb. Chal: No, he was not here. Chal walks away leaving Aspirant standing with her mouth open. |
