We were asked to assist with the publicity for Africa Aspire's Inauguration Ball, Celebration of Change for the World, honoring President-elect Barack Obama and his wife Michelle.
Not such an easy task considering the fact that there are seemingly dozens of Inauguration balls being held that day in DC and around the country. Yet this one is unique, because the organization was founded on the principals that then Senator Obama inspired --to work together in spite of geographical, cultural, political boundaries to make the world better.
Hosted by Golden Globe winner Jeffrey Wright and a performance from Les Nubians, it was a wonderful evening, a wonderful start to the New Year.
