Wisconsin Legislative Black Caucus to Host Black History Month Events

Mandela Barnes, kicked off Black History Month on Feb. 1 in a virtual event hosted over Facebook Live. Chairwoman Rep Stubbs (D-77) released the following statement: “I am honored to be speaking at this event today and to be the Chairwoman for the Wisconsin Legislative Black Caucus. This kickoff event is just the beginning of an amazing month celebrating historical and contemporary Black voices and accomplishments.” “Black History Month is incredibly important to observe, as for so long Black history was purposefully erased and misrepresented. Black history tells us stories of resistance and survival, while also teaching us about the impact of Black heritage and culture. As we continue to demand racial justice and equity, looking to past Black leaders and accomplishments helps us in finding strength and motivation to keep fighting today. It also reminds us how far we have come, and how at the same time we still have so much work to do.”
