The company’s newly announced online movie event will feature “Coming To America 2” and will be held on Monday, April 26th from 8 pm to 9:30 pm EDT.

“Coming To America” tells the story of the African Prince, Akeem, that travels to America searching for love and his future queen in Queens, New York. “Coming To America 2” is the continuation of that story. In this sequel, Akeem is now a king and learns that he has a son. This revelation brings him to return to America.

This discussion series, “What’s the 411 – Analyzing Race Through Film, Literature and Storytelling” is led by the company’s leadership team which includes a professor whose research centers around race and unconscious bias. Black Belonging Matters uses film and print to highlight the Black experience in America.

Black Belonging Matters works to solve micro and macro aggressions that affect Black people in the area of employment. The company is 100 percent Black-owned and provides top-tier, full-scale services that create a sense of belonging in the workplace. Their team includes an attorney with a background in human resources, a diversity and inclusion executive, and a psychologist.

A satisfied client said: “I thought the program was run very well and it was great to get a chance to break out into small groups to get to know my co-workers. I also felt like people were more open to chatting and sharing their experiences in the smaller groups. I felt it was a very beneficial program for me.”
