{m}aganda 21 theme unveiling

DWINELLE HALL -

September 20th, 2007.

Many lovely people turned up for Maganda’s first event of the semester. The theme and Call for Submissions for m21 was revealed (more on that later). We raffled off some mags, good vibes bounced off the walls, and talented folks came out to show their stuff at the Open Mic.

Special thanks go out to our featured performers, who rocked the small-classroom energy and kept us pumped with their truth, their style, their beats- and free tickets to the London Underground (also known as BART):

Adriel Luis & Ruby V. of iLL-Literacy

Mesej 1 & Jason Bayani of Proletariet Bronze

Deep Foundation …all the way from Queens, N.Y.

We hope y’all come again next time.

Until then-

WE LOVE (our people)!

Maganda Magazine: 21

A big question you guys may be asking is…

“Uh…where is magandamagazine.org?”

Well. Since our official website is going to be down indefinitely, we will now be posting news and updates on our events from this lovely wordpress site (along with our myspace, of course).

So yes, we are alive.

Friend us. Read us.

This year’s maganda staff is significantly larger than in past years’, and we are more ambitious than ever with our 21st time publishing. The theme of our next issue will be unveiled shortly, as will our official Call for Submissions, so please stay tuned. Or better yet, come to our theme unveiling. It will take place right here on the Berkeley campus, this week, on September 20th @ 6pm in 246 Dwinelle.
