He also remembers the big events hosted by the Park in the 80s, and tells stories (good and bad) about his experiences there.

Title: Dinita Dausuel Interview, June 22, 2019
Date: June 22, 2019
Creator: Dan Kerr; Dinita Dausuel
Description: Dinita Dausuel reflects on the importance of go-go music to her. Growing up in Northwest DC, she would spend every weekend going to the go-go and, after moving to Maryland, would do whatever it took to keep going to places like the Panorama Room. Dinita shares memories about her favorite go-go artists and life experiences that happened at the go-go. She describes how fun go-go is and how it transcended violence and was one of the few things that brought African Americans in DC together: "we didn't know it was our culture then, but it was what we loved to do."
