BLACK HISTORY MONTH
The theme for this years Black History Month is: Standing Firm in Power and Pride.
Fact of the Week:
Why do we celebrate Black History Month this time of year?
October was chosen partly because it’s traditionally a time when African leaders gather to talk about important issues and partly because it was at the start of the school year.
Business Spotlight of the Week:
Kinini Mountain Coffee
Kinini is an East Sussex-based coffee company with a farm in Rwanda. They work closely with the local population out there to not only produce premium quality coffee, but also to improve the local environment with a strong emphasis on building quality schools and local healthcare outposts, which have traditionally been lacking. The majority of the farmers are women, and Jacquie, one of the founders of Kinini, is a key member of the International Women’s Coffee Association (IWCA).
Song of the Week:
Glory by Common and John Legend
