If you’re looking for a fun, spring-like activity to fill your weekend, look no further. Black Student Union’s 40th annual Unity Day celebration will be held at 1PM this Saturday, outside the Paul Robeson Cultural Center on Busch Campus.
After many long hours of planning, meetings, discussions and auditions, there is a lot of entertainment in store. BSU’s e-board has planned a free, fun and inviting event for the whole community highlighted by a photo booth, music by DJ Academiks and the return of the DJ competition which was successful in its first year. Many of this year’s performances are by local artists, including Robie Maxx, Anubis Sounds, Mike Hardy and Def Bananas, and previous artists include Kazzie, Kendrick Lamar, ScHoolboy Q and Wiz Khalifa. This year’s headliner is former 90210 star and “Like We Did in the 90s” singer, Mack Wilds. Don’t miss the singer/actor’s performance when he hits the stage around 3PM.
