SUMMARY:ARHU Dean's Lecture Series: Angélique Kidjo
DESCRIPTION:Five-time Grammy Award winner and humanitarian Angélique Kidjo sits down with College of Arts and Humanities Dean Stephanie Shonekan for a poignant conversation about music\, cultural fluency\, and global advocacy. Named by Time as one of the 100 most influential people in the world and “Africa’s premier diva\,” Kidjo hails from Benin and blends musical traditions from West Africa and around the globe while incorporating multiple languages\, including her own personal musical language.  \nDuring this special evening\, Dean Shonekan and Kidjo will explore the artist’s music and how the singer has used her fame as a platform for humanitarian work as an ambassador for both Oxfam and UNICEF and a founder of the Batonga Foundation\, which is dedicated to advancing girls’ education across Africa.  \nThis event will feature performances by UMD students. \nFree—get your tickets today! go.umd.edu/kidjo
