nBlack Girls Rock!
n
n
Black Girls Rock!, exclamation included, is an organization started by today’s famous birthday. The former model Beverly Bond is now a DJ as well as a business woman, writer, producer, and mentor! Born on this date in 1970, Bond’s organization helps foster success for young African American women and also recognizes the successes of African American women.
n
n
nBlack Girls Rock! started out as just a T-shirt imprint. But Bond was able to grow it into a mentorship program that helps black women realize their own worth, get advice for schools or careers, and become empowered to change their lives.
n
nBlack Girls Rock! next added a yearly awards show dedicated to celebrating successful black women. Actors and musicians and dancers win awards there, but so do politicians, entrepreneurs, and activists!
