DUNBAR HERITAGE ASSOCIATION
On June 29, the Dunbar Heritage Association hosted “The Celebration of Black Kings Awards” in order to acknowledge the contributions of seven esteemed Black men from the Hays County community. Each of the honorees represent one of the seven Kwanzaa Principles of character and leadership, including unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith.
“We based it off of the seven principles of Kwanzaa, and each one of them had a unique meaning for each letter,” Mittie Miller, Vice President of DHA, said. “The reason why we chose the Black Kings is to uplift and empower the black men while also promoting unity and cultural appreciation.”
