Milwaukee Rep’s ‘Celebration of Black History Month’ Image via Milwaukee Rep Every February, we celebrate Black History Month to recognize the achievements  and contributions of Black people as well as work toward understanding the effects of racism. The Milwaukee Repertory Theater is presenting “We Rise: MKE’s Celebration of Black History Month” with four, free virtual events that honor the contributions made by Black artists to American theater.  “‘We Rise’ celebrates the past, present, and the hope of the future,” says Associate Artistic Producer Rajendra Ramoon Maharaj. “Each event will not only be informative and entertaining, but, I hope, will inspire in every American that African American history is American history.”
