February is Black History Month, and this year, Nike Bello was thrilled to be invited to participate in the Connecting Black Voices of Manitoba panel discussion hosted at the University of Manitoba. “This event held special significance for me, as it was an opportunity to engage in meaningful dialogue and celebrate the rich heritage of the Black community,” she said. “It was an honour to share insights, stories, and experiences alongside esteemed colleagues and community leaders.”
The panel discussion, which took place on Saturday, February 10, 2024, at the Asper School of Business, featured six panellists, all thriving Canadian professionals and black immigrants to Canada. The event was geared toward young black immigrants who are just starting and/or transitioning into professional careers and provided an opportunity for honest discussion and dialogue about topics ranging from mental health in the black community to managing finances.
