For the first time in the cinematic history of Spider-Man, our friendly neighborhood hero is unmasked and no longer able to separate his normal life from the high-stakes of being a Super Hero. Desperate for help, Peter turns to Doctor Strange to make the world forget that he is Spider-Man. The spell goes horribly wrong and shatters the multiverse, bringing in monstrous villains that could destroy the world. When he asks for help from Doctor Strange the stakes become even more dangerous, forcing him to discover what it truly means to be Spider-Man. Record-breaking opening box office and charismatic young stars Tom Holland, Zendaya and Jacob Batalon along with veteran actors Benedict Cumberbach, Willian Dafoe, Jamie Foxx, Alfred Molina and Marisa Tomei add to the appeal of this must-see on the big screen blockbuster.

In his acclaimed debut as a filmmaker, Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson presents a powerful and transporting documentary—part music film, part historical record created around an epic event that celebrated Black history, culture and fashion. Over the course of six weeks in the summer of 1969, just one hundred miles south of Woodstock, The Harlem Cultural Festival was filmed in Mount Morris Park (now Marcus Garvey Park). The footage was never seen and largely forgotten–until now. SUMMER OF SOUL shines a light on the importance of history to our spiritual well-being and stands as a testament to the healing power of music during times of unrest, both past and present. The feature includes never-before-seen concert performances by Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Sly & the Family Stone, Gladys Knight & the Pips, Ray Baretto, Abbey Lincoln & Max Roach and more.

Venture investors and entrepreneurship experts celebrate Black History Month by lending their views and insights for Black business founders to successfully charter the entrepreneurial pathway from ideation to succession.

The Inclusivity Project is a 22nd Century initiative leveraging the SBDC Infrastructure to build a supportive ecosystem for California Black-owned businesses. The right business ecosystems can mitigate or negate the effects of structural obstacles to business building for Black business owners.

Community-based businesses—are crucial ways to develop community wealth, for both business owners and the people they employ. Healthy Black-owned businesses could be a critical component for closing the Black-White wealth gap. The COVID-19 crisis, however, has further stressed Black-owned businesses and may cause the racial wealth gap to widen.

Black business owners have been disproportionately affected by the pandemic-linked economic downturn, partly because they were more likely to already be in an uncertain position, including more likely to be located in communities with business environments that are more likely to produce poor business outcomes.

The Inclusivity Project invites startups, small business enterprises, angel investors, venture capitalists, government stakeholders, and industry representatives to join us for our Black History Month Global  Diversity and Investment Summit.

This is a free virtual event made possible through the support of the U.S. Small Business Administration and California Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development.

We are honored to announce our Keynote Speaker, Tara Lynn Gray, Director, Office of the Small Business Advocate with California Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development (Go-Biz) and Author of Soon-to-be-released book “Undervalued No More” committed to small business growth.
