TWH Lit Kids @ #EveryBlackGirl
January 21, 2017 @ 1:30 pm UTC+0
As part of our Lit Kids! Programming, The Watering Hole partners with #EveryBlackGirl, a Columbia-based cultural movement headed by Vivian Anderson. This 501(c)3 organization was born from the aftermath of the Spring Valley High School incident.
What does #EveryBlackGirl do?
- It brings awareness and solutions to issues impacting black girls and hopes to create a world where #EveryBlackGirl can thrive.
- It centers Black women and girls as active agents of change that are able to cope and thrive beyond their adversities.
- It highlights the role women and girls are playing in this movement through their stories and how those stories are positively influencing the lives of Black women and girls across the U.S.
The Watering Hole helps organize and teach weekly classes and provides mentorship for #EveryBlackGirl.
You can visit or participate on Saturdays at 1:30 at the Katherine M. Bellfield Cultural Arts Center, 2611 Grant Street, Columbia, SC.
