Ethiopian-Eritrean club is a place to learn more about Habesha culture. This club aims to share customs of the Ethiopian-Eritrean culture, such as music, food, dancing, and much more. Junior club member Selam Demeke is thankful to have a place where she can express her culture. “Many of us grew up assimilating to the American lifestyle, and were never really given the chance or felt comfortable enough to learn or share Habesha culture,” said Demeke.“That is why I chose to step up and help start a club that could bring a community together. A community that feels welcome and confident enough to enjoy learning and sharing our traditions like music, food, and dancing together. One that is proud to be Habesha, and proud to be a part of this family.” If interested in joining, the club meets Thursdays after school in room M256!
