Riverside to host Black History Month event
Every year, the City of Riverside takes part in the Black History Expo & Parade in Riverside which is an event that honors the legacy and achievements of African Americans in the region and beyond. This parade is one of the oldest and largest events of its kind in Southern California, celebrating 45 years and attracting thousands of people from different backgrounds and walks of life. This event is organized and hosted by the Adrian Dell and Carmen Roberts Foundation, a non-profit organization that fosters education, health, and community development among African Americans.
The parade, scheduled for Saturday at 10 a.m., will feature floats, bands, dancers, and more from local schools, churches, businesses, and organizations. The parade will start at Riverside City College and end at the Riverside County Courthouse, where you can explore an expo with vendors, entertainment, and information booths.
