In honor of Black History Month, Mygani is teaming up with Empowerment Resources Inc. (ERI) a private 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering children and their families to become strong and successful leaders. They are excited to host their 9th Curls and Convo event! Mygani’s signature event was created to instill the value of self-confidence in women + girls of color regardless of their hair texture or skin complexion. Join them for a HISTORICAL convo about what makes natural hair + black culture magical!
They will also continue their conversation about the importance of the Crown Act; which stands for “Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair,” is a law that prohibits race-based hair discrimination, which is the denial of employment and educational opportunities because of hair texture or protective hairstyles including braids, locs, twists or bantu knots.
In 2022 the City of Jacksonville declared February 12 Curls and Convo Day with an official proclamation.

- Speaker Presentation
