In celebration of Black History Month, we are excited to highlight projects and contributions from our local African-American community leaders and learn more about the all-too-often ignored influence of African-Americans on our shared history.

This month we welcome four amazing speakers: attorney, local historian and co-founder of the Minnesota African American Heritage Museum and Gallery Tina Burnside; Leading Professor of the Department of African American and African Studies at the University of Minnesota Dr. Keith Mayes; Twin Cities Public Television PBS Senior Producer and local historian Daniel Bergin; and City of Minneapolis’ Resilience in Communities After Stress & Trauma (ReCAST) Program Manager Ebony Adedayo.

Join us on Friday, Feb. 22nd, at Funky Grits. All are welcome!!
