BIPOC artists, community organizers, and activists play a significant role in the movement towards black liberation. There is no livelihood in the community without Art and Culture. These revolutionaries brought us the Harlem Renaissance, the Civil Rights Moment, The Black Arts Movement, The Black Power Movement, Hip Hop, and the most contemporary, Black Lives Matter movement.
