If you are a faithful follower of Minority Report featuring Black Owned Businesses, then you are familiar with my favorite holiday - Black Love Day on February 13th. For those of you who are new to my platform, let me tell you...
Black Love Day was created by Ayo Handy-Kendi, founder of the African American Holiday Association. Since 1989, AAHA has acted to preserve culture through traditional and non-traditional holidays, celebrations and rituals.
I had the opportunity to interview her and discuss the value of American Descendants of Slaves having our own holidays and traditions. It was a great discussion and if you missed it, check it out below.
As the 3rd observed African-American holiday or "wholyday" of atonement, reconciliation, celebration and 24 hour demonstration of 5 loving acts or tenets: For The Creator, for Self, for the Black Family, the Community and for the Black Race with Whites in the 24 hours showing love in action towards Blacks and working on their own racial attitudes and behaviors-- Black Love Day (BLD) gives us a rare chance, in these polarized times, to uplift and reconnect.
*for the people in the back
