WHO IS THE BLACK COMMUNITY?
We define the Black community into 4 subgroups: African, American, African/African Immigrant, Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Latina. This definition, however, is not absolute as we are not a monolithic people. We seek to be inclusive and embracing in our understanding of this very special and sacred place.
WHY ARE THE COLORS SUNRISE AND COCOA?
Sunrise is for the life sustaining energy that is provided by the sun as it rises each day.
Cocoa is for the rich variation in skin tone, texture and hues boldly worn and proudly adorned by women of the African diaspora.
