23RD ANNUAL BLACK WRITERS ON TOUR CONFERENCE & SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BLACK BUSINESS EXPO TO BE HELD UNDER ONE ROOF

Nationwide --  Dr. Rosie Milligan brings the largest Black cultural event for Southern California - the Black Writers On Tour Conference & Southern California Black Business Expo under one roof in Carson, California, a Los Angeles neighboring city.

Most Black cultural events are no longer in existence due to the lack of corporate (white) sponsorship. Self-determination has been resurrected, and this year's conference is unprecedented - sponsored by Black-owned corporations - MyEcon Inc., from Atlanta, GA, and Pasadena/San Gabriel Journal Newspaper. This powerful one-day event will be held on Saturday, March 30, 2019, from 9am to 6pm at the Congresswoman JMM Community Center, 801 E. Carson Street, Carson, California 90746.


This year's theme is, "Literacy is Everybody's Business - Businesses Thriving Versus Surviving." This conference will be more dynamic than ever, more than 100 Black authors, and 50 plus Black businesses showcasing their products and services under one roof. Businesses today are facing new technology and global driven business competition, and so Black businesses must be prepared to meet the challenge.
