Xavier University of Louisiana celebrates many holidays that are around to express a cause. One important holiday that Xavier University celebrates is Martin Luther King Jr. Day. This year many events were held to commemorate this holiday but the most memorable was the talent showcase held at Dillard University. The showcase involved a step in which Telycia Peters, a member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated participated in. Telycia felt as though the unity step was important for the purpose of MLK Day. She said “the unity step was important because it demonstrated to a small population that the animosity that people perceive Greek Organizations to have between each other could be put aside for greater cause. Even though this is a small step, this further proves a point that African Americans of different shades and denominations could put their animosity aside to continue to make Dr. Martin Luther King’s dream a reality.”
