Celebrate Black History Month with our area’s largest political organization on Wednesday
Our area’s largest political organization, the 34th District Democrats, meet in person this month, and the meeting Wednesday (February 11) begins with a Black History Month presentation. Here’s the announcement:
Please join us for a very special, in-person Pre-Meeting Program on February 11 at 6:00PM, at The Hall at Fauntleroy (9131 California Ave SW, West Seattle. All are welcome! This program will be immediately followed by the 34th District Democrats’ General Membership Meeting.
This Program will align with the commemoration of Black History Month, which is honored in the month of February.
The goal of the program is to uplift, highlight, celebrate, and expand our understanding of a more comprehensive American History (past and present), as shared through the contributions, points of view, perspectives, and lived experiences of a diverse and distinguished group of Black voices from the 34th District and from Seattle.
The format of this program was inspired by a storytelling style called Pecha Kucha (which coincidentally is also celebrated, like Black History Month, in February: February 20 is known as International Pecha Kucha Day), which involves a specific storytelling format and includes slides and accompanying stories. This program brings together storytelling and history in an engaging and informative combination!
Our honored speakers come from diverse backgrounds and bring with them a plethora of subjects and stories, ranging from science, engineering, and the arts, to sports, government, and social justice! Please consider adding this to your Black History Month celebration events and we look forward to seeing you on February 11th at 6:00 pm at The Hall at Fauntleroy!
