North High School Black Community Organization

As we honor Black History Month, we would like to take a moment to recognize the resilience and strength of Black people everywhere. From the Underground Railroad to the Civil Rights Movement, Black people have always been at the forefront of social change.

This month, we’ll be sharing stories of those who have fought for the past, present, and future of Black empowerment. Let’s uplift Black voices and keep pushing for justice and equality.

This Thursday! And look, BCO alumni, Canaya will be performing. Go and bring a friend!

LU hosts Black History Month chapel service Lakeland University will celebrate Black History Month with a service in the Ley Chapel on Thursday, February 5, at 5 p.m.

Tomorrow! You should go and bring a friend!

February 3 is the first installment of our 2026 Speaker Series: Our American Home (commemorating America's 250th Anniversary).

Dr. Andrene Wright–Johnson will talk about how Black Americans gained and use citizenship unlike any other group in history. She will also interview a panel of local leaders including Judge Natasha Torry, BACO President Toni White, and UW Outreach Specialist Joshua Wright.

Next Monday, join Black-American Community Outreach for a meaningful morning of stories, creativity, and reflection.

We'd like to introduce you to our next performer for our first Community Playlist Cabaret: Moe Green!

"A Sheboygan native, Moe Green has been singing locally since high school (2008). Since then, Moe sang throughout college, minoring in music, and has performed with Mill Street Live at the Plymouth Arts Center (PAC) for 4 summers including various one night shows also at the PAC. In 2022, Moe started performing with the Sheboygan Theatre Company (STC) and was cast as Dolores/Sister Mary Clarence in Sister Act, as Sebastian in The Little Mermaid (2023) and as Joanne in Rent (2024)! When Moe isn’t performing, Moe works as a policy social worker for the Department of Children & Families, specializing in the field of child protection. Moe is excited for the opportunity to perform cabaret style once again and hope that you love the show!"
