13th of the Month Event Series

Black History Month has been controversial since its inception. Today, we see Black History Month co-opted for capitalist gains. We see the same sanitized heroes uplifted in history lessons. We see the same small and large institutions that are silent 11 months of the year take symbolic stances for Black justice in February. Should Black History Month be canceled, repurposed, re-imagined or stay the same?

Join the discussion as we use history, strategy and analysis to examine what Black History Month means in 2023 and beyond.
