MADISON – The Wisconsin Legislative Black Caucus announces Week 2 schedule for Black History Month to be hosted by Representatives Jason Fields and Kalan Haywood.
This week will be headlined by Black Business and Nonprofit Day from 12pm-2pm on Wednesday, Feb. 6 in the State Capitol, Assembly Parlor. “This is what Black History Month is all about,” said Rep. Fields. “Coming together to establish strategies and building new relationships that will improve and enhance the economic viability of our community.”
“Black History Month is a great time to celebrate the culture and the people who have contributed to making the lives of other people better,” added Rep. Haywood. “However, it should also serve as an urgent call to action and inspire us to create innovative ways to push the needle forward in terms of economic development in communities of color and the State of Wisconsin as a whole.”
