New Honda Docuseries Celebrates the Legacy of Historically Black Colleges and Universities TORRANCE, Calif., PRNewswire -- Honda Battle of the Bands (HBOB), the nation’s premier showcase for Historically Black College and University (HBCU) marching bands and dance teams, announced its new four-part docuseries, Driving the Legacy of HBCUs, premiered on Saturday, Feb. 26. The docuseries will explore various aspects of the HBCU experience, using performances, interviews and notable alumni to tell the HBCU story. The series also will highlight Honda’s longstanding relationship with and support of the HBCU community. “This year, Honda Battle of the Bands will represent a broader look at HBCU life. ‘Driving the Legacy’ will enable us to share some new and exciting things about the HBCU experience that makes these institutions special—something Honda has known for more than 30 years,” said Yvette Hunsicker, vice president, Corporate Social Responsibility and Inclusion & Diversity at AHM. “While there isn’t an in-person event in 2022, we did not want another year to go by without the powerful spirit of HBOB.” The first episode in the “Driving the Legacy” series will feature three
schools that have a deep history with the HBOB program: Florida A&M University, North Carolina A&T State University and Prairie View A&M University. It will be hosted by Emmy and two-time NAACP Image Award-winning host, comedian, author and Prairie View alumna, Loni Love. “I am honored to partner with Honda in sharing the legacy these historic institutions have in developing some of the world’s most influential and powerful leaders,” said Love. “As a proud alumna of an HBCU, I personally know that the HBCU experience is unmatched. It’s an environment where our culture is authentically celebrated and treasured.” To advance its leading investment in HBCUs, Honda is a member of the HBCU Partnership Challenge, a Congressional Bipartisan HBCU Caucus initiative that brings together government, industry and HBCUs to create strategic, more sustainable HBCU partnerships. Honda also has partnered with the Thurgood Marshall College Fund to provide annual scholarship funding to support HBCU students pursuing an education in engineering, supply chain management and manufacturing-related fields.
NAREB LAUNCHES CAMPAIGN TO CHANGE POLICIES AND REGULATIONS LIMITING GAINS IN BLACK HOMEOWNERSHIP WASHINGTON – With the gap in homeownership between Black and White families wider today than when housing discrimination was rampant decades ago, the National Association of Real Estate Brokers (NAREB) is launching a “Revive the American Dream of Homeownership” campaign to change public policies that limit the ability of minority and low-to-moderate income families to purchase homes. As of last summer, the Black homeownership rate was 44.6% compared to 74.2% for Whites, a gap of 29.6%. In 1960, before Civil Rights and Fair Housing laws were enacted, there was a lower 27-point gap between Black homeownership (38%) and White homeownership (65%), demonstrating the substantial need for policies that support homeownership. “It is a travesty that in 2022, some five decades past the Civil Rights movement, there has been very little progress in Black homeownership,” said Lydia Pope, NAREB’s President. “It is time for us to act. We must alert Congress and the Biden Administration that public

policies must be enacted and changed to provide more opportunities for families to purchase homes. The American Dream of homeownership must be revived.” Specifically, NAREB is taking aim at four policy areas they have identified as detrimental to homebuying for minorities and low-to-moderate income families: Ø Down Payment Assistance. NAREB is fully supportive of the down payment assistance plan in President Biden’s the Build Back Better legislation. Currently, there are options for down payment assistance available for families, but most come with conditions that can hurt their ability to get a home loan. For instance, some programs tack on a second mortgage or stricter wage and credit score requirements. Other proposals want to link down payment assistance to a tax credit, but that kind of relief does little to help a family that can’t close on house because they can’t afford the down payment. NAREB supports a grant program for down payment assistance so that participation doesn’t impact the ability to qualify for a mortgage.

Disneyland Resort Ignites the Night with
RETURN OF FOUR NIGHTTIME SPECTACULARS ANAHEIM, Calif. PRNewswire -- Disneyland Resort proudly presents the homecoming of four beloved nighttime spectaculars and a new grand finale to the “Main Street Electrical Parade” for its 50th anniversary. On April 22, 2022, the “Main Street Electrical Parade” and “Disneyland Forever” fireworks spectacular will ignite the night at Disneyland Park, and “World of Color” will return to Disney California Adventure Park. “Fantasmic!” is preparing for its return to Disneyland on May 28, 2022. Since Disneyland Resort reopened in April 2021, guests have been able to rediscover the wonders and magic of returning entertainment – such as Jambalaya Jazz in New Orleans Square at Disneyland and “Disney Junior Dance Party!” at Disney California Adventure. New experiences have been introduced, too, like the Raya encounter in Redwood Creek Challenge Trail and Celebrate Soulfully entertainment throughout the month of February. Each of these offerings highlights the incredible momentum at the Disneyland Resort as part of its phased reopening. Cherished spectaculars return April 22 A guest favorite since its debut in 1972, “Main Street Electrical Parade” features cherished floats such as the classic train and drum unit and Elliot the Dragon. With an electronic musical score based on “Baroque Hoedown” by Jean-Jacques Perrey and Gershon Kingsley, this parade was the first to play unique musical arrangements synchronized to each float unit. The lineup of floats has changed over the years, and Disney parks around the world have presented evolving versions of this iconic parade.
To honor the milestone 50th anniversary of “Main Street Electrical Parade,” Disney Live Entertainment will introduce a magnificent grand finale that celebrates the theme of togetherness in an all-new float. This universal theme is reflected in the creative concept of the grand finale sequence, drawing inspiration from the original design of classic “Main Street Electrical Parade” floats and Mary Blair’s iconic art style on “it’s a small world.” The seven-segment float stretches 118 feet in length and brings to life more than a dozen Walt Disney Animation Studios and Pixar Animation Studios films, making it one of the longest and grandest sequences in the parade’s history. These stories will be interpreted in thousands of sparkling lights and electro-synthe-magnetic musical sound, with unique representations of beloved characters as animated dolls. Guests along each side of the parade route will see different stylized scenes from classic and contemporary favorite stories such as “Encanto,” “The Jungle Book,” “Raya and the Last Dragon,” “Aladdin,” “Coco,” “Mulan,” “Brave,” “The Princess and the Frog” and more. The finale also pays tribute to the parade’s heritage with the return of the Blue Fairy character from “Pinocchio” and a unique, 19“Main Street Electrical Parade” and “Disneyland Forever” will be available for a limited time at Disneyland. From April 22 to late spring, “Disneyland Forever” will perform Fridays through Sundays, and the “Mickey’s Mix Magic” projections-only show is scheduled Mondays through Thursdays. “Disneyland Forever” fireworks will then run nightly in the summer. “World of Color” will return to its regular schedule upon reopening.
INDIANAPOLIS – An intriguing exhibit on the work and life of Pop Art Icon Andy Warhol will be on view at the Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art, March 12 through Aug. 7. Warhol’s West is a traveling exhibition that explores the fascination Warhol had with the American West and Native Americans. Making the exhibition even more engaging will be a series of public programs at the Eiteljorg where visitors can learn more about Warhol and his art. The show will feature Warhol’s screenprint portraits created late in his career of important historical figures of the West, including Geronimo, Annie Oakley and Sitting Bull, as well as of pop culture figures such as Western movie actor John Wayne. Warhol’s West includes source material such as photographs Warhol used to adapt and create his prints, as well as movie posters and lobby cards from one of his films. Adding to a discussion of the ways in which Native cultures have been culturally Eiteljorg Museum appropriated and represented, the exhibit also will feature a selection of Native American images by noted photographer Edward S. Curtis, whose work Warhol collected extensively. Internationally known for his Pop Art creations of the 1960s, including screenprints of Marilyn Monroe and famous images of the Campbell’s Soup can and Brillo soap pad box, Warhol also harbored a lifelong interest in the West, and he personally collected items of Native American art and Western art. Twenty-one original silkscreen prints in bold colors are featured in Warhol’s West. Many come from the series Cowboys and Indians, the final suite of prints that Warhol created in 1986, not long before his death in 1987 at age 58. Warhol’s West at the Eiteljorg is presented by Raymond James and Associates in Indiana and is sponsored by Capital Group and Avis Foundation, Inc., with additional support from the Indiana Arts Commission and the Arts Council of the City of Indianapolis.

Rep. Davis, Sen. Durbin, and Rep. Schneider Champion Bill to Help Illinois Recover from the Pandemic by Waiving Interest on Federal Unemployment Loans Representative Danny K. Davis (D-IL) joined with Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Representative Brad Schneider (D-IL) to champion the Continued Waiver of Interest on State Unemployment Loans during the Pandemic Act. This legislation would extend the waiver of interest payments on federal unemployment loans during the pandemic to help Illinois and other states financially as they support their constituents and respond to the dual economic and health crises. Congress has waved the interest on unemployment loans three times during the pandemic. Multiple state comptrollers – led by Illinois State Comptroller Susana Mendoza – raised the need for the federal government to extend the waiver on the interest on these loans since the country is still grappling with the pandemic and since states continue to cope with the financial consequences of these dual crises. Indeed, the National Association of State Workforce Agencies supports a continued moratorium on interest accrual and payments because, if required to pay the interest, states will be forced to either increase employer unemployment taxes or divert state resources that could be used for economic recovery. The business community also supports the waiver extension. The increased unemployment resulted from the pandemic, not from the normal functioning of the labor market or the actions of employers. Given that the pandemic continues, Illinois and other states continue to need financial relief to improve their recovery. The bill would extend the period of interest-free loans from September 6, 2021, to September 30, 2022. The provision is set up to be contiguous with the date of the lapse of the interest-free waiver, meaning there would be no gap in the relief to states. It would operate retroactively as if the interest-free nature had never expired. A further extension of the waiver on unemployment loan interest will improve state and business recovery in many states.

REVOLT to Launch of RBN Studios in Atlanta LOS ANGELES PRNewswire -- REVOLT has announced the launch of its first headquarters and studio business, RBN Studios, which will spotlight unfiltered conversations about the issues that most affect Black people throughout America and the African diaspora. Expanding to a full-service production operation within its newly built headquarters in the heart of midtown Atlanta, Georgia, RBN Studios will spearhead programming in various alternative formats. From news and opinion to talk shows, documentaries and reoccurring specials that deal with key social justice issues, RBN Studios will create original content that resonates with Black communities. As RBN Studios continues its mission in delivering stories from an authentic Black lens, the productions will ignite solution-oriented discourse that gives a voice to typically unheard perspectives. Centered around the belief that the Black experience is not monolithic, RBN Studios will relaunch its powerful flagship series REVOLT Black News Weekly, which will focus on untapped, underreported, and misconceived stories relevant to both Black culture and communities. The series will be hosted by Emmy award-nominated journalist Neima Abdulahi, who’s been tapped as the show’s Global News Anchor by Monique Chenault, REVOLT’s President of News and Documentary. Chenault also named Gen Z journalist and Spelman College graduate Kennedy Rue McCullough as RBN’s Entertainment and Pop Culture Correspondent. Mirroring REVOLT’s longstanding vision of creating impact as a Black multimedia powerhouse, this new initiative marks a turn for journalism to truly serve as a key resource of information for Black communities. The Atlanta-based news operation will further cement REVOLT’s footprint in the cultural epicenter and allow authentic content to fully reflect the Black experience on a global scale. “The Black perspective has been deliberately hidden from the world for too long. With RBN Studios, we will leave no stone unturned and shine a light in the darkest of corners to find the truth through a Black diasporic lens,” said Detavio Samuels, CEO of REVOLT. “REVOLT has always strived to unveil critical information and viewpoints for ourselves and the world, so we chose a business model that enables us to scale impact beyond our own distribution platform.” For more information on REVOLT’s linear content, please visit https://www.revolt.tv/ and visit www. revolt.tv/providers for local broadcast listings.

OK, who celebrates fifth? Bank of America does. For the fifth year in a row, Bank of America has shared the success of our company with our employees with a valuable Sharing Success compensation award. To recognize the team’s hard work, this award is over and above regular compensation. And this year, we’re proud to commemorate a first — nearly all these awards are in Bank of America stock.
That means 97% of our employees shared $1 billion worth of Bank of America stock this year, above regular compensation. “I want to thank my teammates here in Chicago for their continued hard work and dedication. While other banks might make awards like ours every once in a while, I’m proud to work for an organization that has rewarded our employees for five years in a row. Because success is better when it’s shared.” Rita Sola Cook President, Bank of America Chicago
