We, the members of ACC, are dedicated to representing Africa and the Caribbean Islands in a positive light and are determined to eliminate the unfair labels and stereotypical views of our homelands. Africa, for the most part, has been depicted as and AIDS infested, war torn, hunger struck continent by the mass media. Although these are issues that face some African countries, there are many positive aspects of Africa and its people that America will never be able to view on television. |

ACC's goal is to first educate one another within our club about our different cultural upbringings and backgrounds. Once we have accomplished this we can then share that knowledge with fellow Western students. By doing so we assist in the ongoing journey to spread cultural awareness. |
