2027 VIRTUAL BHM WELLNESS CONVERSATION: Racial Trauma & Healing (20 Feb 2027)

Sun, 21 Feb 2027 00:30:00 GMT

BLACK HISTORY MONTH WELLNESS
Topic: Racial Trauma & Healing for the Black Community

Access to culturally relevant mental health care remains a challenge for many people of African descent in Canada. This Black History Month, join the Black Manitobans Chamber of Commerce for a virtual conversation about racial trauma, healing, and community well-being.

On February 20, 2027, join Patrick Tshiovo, Clinical Therapist and Executive Director of Winnipeg RE/ACT Inc., for an open and thought-provoking discussion designed to educate, empower, and encourage healing.

This session offers members of the Black community and the broader public an opportunity to discuss racial trauma and its impacts openly, safely, and respectfully. Through shared learning and reflection, we will explore the importance of culturally relevant mental health support and community connections.

By creating space for people of African descent to share their lived experiences and feel heard, we help build a healthier, safer, and more inclusive society for all.

RSVP is required.
The Zoom link will only be sent to registered guests.

Black History Month Gala Night- From Recognition to Results 2027 (27 Feb 2027)

Sun, 28 Feb 2027 00:00:00 GMT

From Recognition to Results | Black History Month 2027

This Black History Month, the Black Manitobans Chamber of Commerce invites the community to an evening of remembrance, recognition, and purpose.

Under the theme From Recognition to Results, the event encourages us to move beyond symbolic gestures toward meaningful action and lasting outcomes.

At the heart of the evening is the Veteran BIPOC Legacy Award, honouring Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour veterans whose service, sacrifice, and leadership have helped shape our communities and our province. Their contributions extend beyond their military service, carrying forward values of resilience, justice, and responsibility.

Together, we will reflect on history, acknowledge service, and renew our commitment to a future rooted in equity, respect, and collective progress.

Location: To be announced (TBA).
