In honor of Black History Month, the Multnomah County Managers of Color Employee Resource Group created a video series honoring Black activists, leaders, and thinkers who have helped shape the history of the United States and indeed, the world.
Though this video series was conceived with Multnomah County Employees in mind, members of the public will also gain additional insight into the contributions Black people have made to our society at large by watching this series.
These three-minute vignettes feature Black luminaries including Desmond Tutu, bell hooks, Fred Hampton, and Alicia Garza and are introduced by members of Multnomah County’s various employee resource groups including Multnomah County Managers of Color, Multnomah County Employees of Color, and the Women of Color Leadership Forum.
We invite you to watch and enjoy.
