Join us on September 25, 2021, between 2 pm and 5 pm for the street renaming of 35th and King Drive as "Phillip Jackson Parkway" and the 25th Anniversary of the founding of The Black Star Project. As we count down to September 25, we will be focusing on the people, programs, philosophies, and activities which together encompass Black Star's 25-year history. Today we feature this poster that focuses on Phillip Jackson's statement, "Educate or Die" and his explanation of why education and reading are so critical to the success and potential of Black people in this country and globally.

Follow us in the newsletter and our other online (Facebook, Instagram, etc.) resources during September 2021 for knowledge, insight, perspective, and our own expressions for the present and the future of The Black Star Project as an organization and a legacy.

And, we look forward to seeing you on Saturday, September 25, 2021, at 2:00 p.m. at Black Star's Bronzeville headquarters, 3509 South Dr. King Jr. Drive, for food, fun, live entertainment, art workshops, neighborhood tours, COVID 19 vaccine clinic and testing, tributes to community leaders and more!
