New Introduction for Black History Chats Sub! Welcome!
Hi Everyone!
I have some new information to share regarding the sub.
This is now a PUBLIC sub. This sub is about being respectful and honest. We will not tolerate spamming, trolling, racism, or misogyny. If the posts and/or comments break the rules they will be removed automatically. I want to keep this sub positive and not allow negative energy into this space. I very much encourage people to join this sub and post. I love fair and balanced conversations.
You can post whatever you want as long as it is PG-13 related material and stays on the topic of Black History.
It is OK to post about recent events or topics ONLY if it is still connected to an historical event, situation, or issue. This is very important to remember. Therefore, we will not be discussing contemporary issues or gossip just for the fun of it. This is NOT what this space is.
An example of what is allowed: there is alot of talk about mental health these days. That's a broad topic and not stuck to any generation. You can talk about the mental health of a historical figure if you come with some facts. It's OK to use modern day scientific information that exists today and discuss what you think could have impacted the behavior and thought process of a historical figure. That's a great conversation to have. Yet, it's not to GOSSIP and you still have to share SOME facts to go along with your hypothesis.

This sub is for people who love Black History. They love Black American History. They love history in general that is connected to the empowerment of Black people. I want this sub to be informative and educational. This sub will focus on Blacks who moved the needle in education, writing, politics, art, music, and entertainment. This sub is to connect people to the past. We do discuss contemporary issues ONLY if they are connected to historical issues/events.
This is a not a gossip site but it can still be fun.
