Work With Us
Meaningful Conversations. Lasting Impact.
The conversations happening inside your organization matter.
They shape culture. Build trust. Inspire leadership. Strengthen communities. And long after the event ends, they're often what people remember most.
Making Black History Today partners with organizations, businesses, educational institutions, nonprofits, government agencies, and community leaders to create conversations that educate, engage, and inspire.
Whether you're planning a keynote, conference, employee resource group event, leadership summit, community forum, board retreat, or educational program, we bring thoughtful facilitation, authentic storytelling, and professional expertise to every audience.

Why should I bring MBHT into my organization?
Every organization has important conversations.
Few have someone who knows how to lead them.
At Making Black History Today, we've spent years creating spaces where people feel comfortable asking difficult questions, sharing different perspectives, and leaving with a deeper understanding of one another.
That work began through our time as public servants and has expanded to leading workshops, facilitating community dialogue, interviewing today's history-makers, and partnering with organizations committed to meaningful engagement.
We don't believe people need another presentation filled with bullet points.
We believe they need conversations they'll still be talking about on Monday morning.
That's what we create.
What We Bring
