VIVI: Via Eden Prairie Local News, VERBATIM: “Nevaeh ‘Vivi’ Vilella stood before the camera, her shimmering dress catching the light, her voice carrying through the room.

Her 90-second performance, recorded in advance and produced with multiple takes, was part of a Black History Month video project at Central Middle School (CMS). The initiative was led by African American Cultural Liaison Laquita Davis, with support from other CMS staff, to elevate student voices and foster cultural appreciation.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/422Zwzk
