Made up of women from both sides of the 1994 Rwandan genocide, Rwanda’s first and only all women’s drum troupe, Ingoma Nshya, offers a place of support, healing and reconciliation.

technology, the way we consume music through our devices, apps
and on demand streaming services like Pandora, Spotify and iTunes
is making the idea of the “album” as an art form extinct. Get together
with other music enthusiasts on Tuesday nights in Woods Theatre to
discuss some of the greatest records of all-time! Listen to the album
beforehand and then come prepared to discuss…there will be special
guest moderators and panelists at each event! This discussion will feature NIRVANA’S Nevermind. This event is free but registration is required. Panelists for this event include: Aaron Furgason, Chair, Monmouth University’s Department of Communication & Kim Zide Davis- Manager for the band Pantera, Rich Robinson- Program Director/ On-air Personality 90.5 The Night; and the estate of “Dimebag” Darrell Abbott.
