Reader support matters more than ever
We're in the final stretch of our summer campaign. Our goal is to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the journalism our community relies on. Reader support is helping shape the future of local news.
The biggest bummer about Black History Month? That it’s only a month, and not Black History Eternal, y’all.
It’s cool, though. We’ll take it as well as the First Friday Black History Month Celebration at the Downtown Civic Space Park, 424 North Central Avenue. The outdoor public park is the spot to check out the shebang that goes off with live dance by Xango, hands-on community art making, and music performances by Kunesha Walker, Shining Soul, and Spooky Cool. The evening will also feature guest speaker Lasana Hotep, a heavy hitting “thinker/solutions expert” who schools folks with quick-witted multi-media presentations, as well as information about homegrown orgs such as African American Men of ASU and Phoenix Youth at Risk.
Fri., Feb. 4, 6-10 p.m., 2011
