Nikki Giovanni A program celebrating Black History Month and featuring author and poet Nikki Giovanni will begin at 6 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 2, in Bailey Hall on Broward Community College’s A. Hugh Adams Central Campus in Davie, 3501 S.W. Davie Blvd. Titled “Nikki Giovanni and the Harlem Renaissance,” the program will feature readings from Giovanni, other poets and cultural dance from community dancers. “I think it’s a wonderful opportunity for students to meet an author and poet as renowned as she is,” said Adrian Carter, Central’s student life director. Giovanni is author of Racism 101 and more than a dozen volumes of poetry, including Black Feeling Black Talk, Cotton Candy On A Rainy Day, The Selected Poems of Nikki Giovanni, and Love Poems. An English professor at Virginia Tech University, she is the recipient of an NAACP Image Award, holds the Langston Hughes Medal for Outstanding Poetry and has been named woman of the year by Mademoiselle, Ladies' Home Journal, and Ebony magazines. The program, co-sponsored by BCC and Florida Atlantic University, is free to BCC and FAU students and employees, and $2 for the general public Ingrid B On The B Side Inc.
