Black History Month is like a fabulous fiesta of enlightenment and education, where we all gather 'round to celebrate the rich tapestry of the Black community's histories, traditions, and culture. It's like a month-long party where we shake off the shackles of ignorance and dance our way towards a future free of racism and discrimination. Sure, America has come a long way since the Civil War, but let's not pat ourselves on the back just yet. We still have work to do, my friends. We need to transform this country into an inclusive and safe haven, where people from all walks of life have equal access to opportunities. Black History Month serves as a gentle reminder that we can't rest on our laurels. We need to dig deep, learn about the true history of America, and strive for a better world. So, during the month of February, let's put on our thinking caps and dive headfirst into the past. Let's uncover the hidden gems and untold stories that have shaped our nation.

JOIN US! February 21, 6:00PM Black Wall Street evokes the image of thriving African American communities, notably the Greenwood district in Tulsa, Oklahoma, alongside similar prosperous areas like those in Durham, North Carolina, and beyond. While Greenwood stands as the quintessential example, numerous other locales across the nation shared in this economic success and communal prosperity. This program aims to delve into and honor the rich legacy, resilience, and economic prowess of these Black neighborhoods, which flourished despite facing immense challenges. Nationally renowned sites like Tulsa's Greenwood District and our local gem, the Rondo community, stand as testaments to the strength and innovation of Black entrepreneurship. Our discussion will unearth the historical significance of these vibrant economic centers, exploring their ascent and, regrettably, their tragic downfall. Yet, in recognizing the achievements of Black Wall Streets, we not only celebrate their triumphs but also spotlight the systemic hurdles and injustices that precipitated their decline. By acknowledging the invaluable contributions of Black businesses and communities, we take vital steps toward forging a more equitable and inclusive future for everyone. https://ow.ly/uzof50QyBJN
