The Black History Month banners in downtown Port Huron may be taken down, but they aren’t disappearing forever.
The flags are decorated with inspirational messages and photographs of Black people who have influenced the community.
“The pictures for sure help to tell the story of African Americans and minorities within the community that make contributions … whether it was through business, government, education,” said Kim Brown, pastor of the Zion Cathedral of Praise Church in Port Huron.
The flags were a joint effort between the NAACP of Port Huron, St. Clair County Organizing for Regional Equity and Awareness, Black Lives Matter and the Community Foundation of St. Clair County.
