BLACK HISTORY MONTH EXPO 36...."PROGRESS IN PROCESS"
Welcome to the 36th Annual Sacramento Black History Month Expo! Now for over three incredible decades the Black Expo has served the community to assure that gaps in education, housing social justice, jobs, careers, health, and living in a clean and green environment are part of what makes Black lives matter. Black Expo will continue a tradition of bringing together those that are in need and searching for opportunities and those that can provide opportunities. This marriage has been highly successful for 35 years, and is still the main resource center for everyone to engage and extend proactive approaches to offer inclusion and build brand diversity.
Black Expo theme this year is "Progress In Process." This describes the focus being placed on building bright new leaders across the board, so they are prepared for the future. The maturation of opportunities means that the economy will be shared on an equal access basis so that the ascension of a community should not lead to the descension of another. We have matured into a valued community with brilliance and sustenance. However, age old walls of despair and exclusion continue to serve as roadblocks towards success which should be based on talent and opportunity. Black Expo is where you step in to be one of the difference makers.
Here are the details of Black Expo 2024.
Please register for the 36th Black Expo 2024 as we bring it to everyone On site; Online; On-Television; and In Print. Contact me at 279-399-0842 for more information. Thank you.
