Black People Fish
A Day to Teach, enjoy Fishing, and Being Black!
Join us with Brown Skin Lady Show combat anti-Blackness that has ripped away and turned off our communities from being in nature. As we come together for the closing of our Holistic Living Week of Wellness with a Social event, we are called into our environmental and spiritual wellness as well.
The creator of Brown Skin Lady Show stated "With everything going on and with everything happening, I think it’s important to show love to Nature and show love ourselves as well, too. These are important tools that our ancestors passed down to us, and its important that we remember them, as well as implement them!"
