The global pandemic has taught us as a society a 'new norm' that sometime includes seperation and isolation. We didn't want to let it stop us from sharing and celebrating black history, culture and heritage. So Don't rush! sit back and enjoy these great performances by the PowerFilled Youth Team

We are the ones we've been waiting for.
We are the change that we seek."
