We are making
a difference and change in our communities in the U.S. and internationally.
At BEMA we
consider Black History Month as not only a time for remembrance of past and
present achievement of people of African Descent in the U.S., but as Ancestry
Heritage Month not only for people of African Descent but for all peoples
internationally.
Chains are
broken not only individually, but by a collective effort by all.
