Today's post is on something I saw on BET near the beginning of the month (don't ask me why I am only now getting round to blogging it *side eye*). It was the Black Girls Rock award show.
Black Girls Rock is a charitable organisation in the US set up in 2006 by DJ Beverly Bond and focuses on enriching the experiences of women of colour. Through art education, public service and cultural exploration, Black Girls Rock serves to build the self-esteem and self worth of Black women through personal development. Their mentoring schemes and enrichment programmes are aimed at girls between the ages of 12 and 17.
This year, Black Girls Rock teamed up with BET for a special awards show hosted by the beautiful Nia Long to celebrate the achievements of Black women - not just celebrities but those who have made great contributions through their work and philanthropy. Below is video review of the night:
The performance of the night was for certain the collabo between four of the Neo-soul world's most talented females on the classic track "Four Women"...
Amazing.
Until next time peeps, live, love, achieve :-)
