I'm a fan of 100 Black Men. I'm a fan of black men, period. I'm also a fan of Angie Stone and Raheem Devaughn. And I know first hand that it's Better in the Bahamas. So the opportunity to support 100 Black Men, see Angie Stone and Raheem Devaughn in concert, help underserved Atlanta youth attend college AND possibly win a trip to the Bahamas is a no-brainer.
The Black is Beautiful Tour, hosted by the Islands of the Bahamas, features Grammy Award-winning songstress Angie Stone and Raheem Devaughn with laugh-out-loud comedian Lightfoot as host and will be held September 23 at 8:00 pm at the Atlanta Civic Center. The concert is an official event of the 23rd Annual Bank of America Atlanta Football Classic Weekend which pits the FAMU Rattlers against the Southern University Jaguars Saturday, September 24 at 3:00 pm at the Georgia Dome. Part of the concert proceeds will benefit the 100 Black Men's Project Support, which helps underserved youth in Atlanta attend college with tuition paid. One lucky concert guest will win an all-expense-paid trip to Paradise Islands in the Bahamas for 3 days and 2 nights.
This is an even more worthy event because my best friend, college roommate and Delta soror and sands Gloria Johnson Goins is co-promoting it along with AKA extraordinaire Deborah Riley Draper.
Purchase tickets online through Ticketmaster or at Ticketmaster outlets at Publix, Lennox Mall and Phipps Mall in Atlanta, get group tickets from Gloria at g_goins@yahoo.com or (404) 401-8011, and follow and like the event on social media:
