My Community

The community that I was involved in was BSU, which stand for black student union. This community was not exclusive just for African Americans. Most of the members who were involved were Asian, whites, Filipino and other different races. What we do as a community is we go out and do volunteer work for the homeless, feed them, and join them in church. We do all of our volunteer work in San Francisco. We also make sure that we celebrate black history month and all the African Americans who made history for this country. What I disliked about my community is that we never were organized, and when it was time to perform on the rallies we couldn't because most of our members didn't have good grades. It seems as if we didn't have a strong relationship within our community because everyone wanted to be the leader and talk all at once. So we lend roles to everyone and I was secretary of our club and we picked someone who we knew would be responsible for the club as president. When we did that, it made our club more organized and stronger, but we still had problems performing for people. I believe it was a hatred and racist thing at our school because the population was mainly whites. Overall we were a community and it made us who we are today.
