Happy Black History Month 2016: Enter To Win A #PureBlack Nutritional Facts Tee!
Black History month is upon us, while I wish Black History were more integrated and just considered history in our schools, we all know this isn’t the case. With that said, I’m always happy to celebrate and acknowledge how Black people have contributed to history and society.
Check out a few of these great facts and contributions below.

To celebrate Black History Month, we wanted to do a giveaway that will help share facts and contributions from Black people. One of our friend’s of the site, Reggie but better known as Kid Noble, came up with a great shirt design that we thought would make the perfect prize for two of our lucky readers.
About Reggie aka Kid Noble
Reggie is a 31 year old St. Louisan, born and raised. He holds a BA in Journalism, and MA’s in Communications and Digital/Multimedia Design, all from Lindenwood University in St. Charles, MO. Reggie was moved to join the fight for black lives after Vonderrit Myers was killed in a the Shaw area of St. Louis, mere blocks from where he lives. In Vonderrit he saw his little brother, cousins, etc., so he took to the streets, and has been involved in protests and planning since. During the August of 2015, he decided he wanted to design something cool that celebrated blackness. This is where the #PureBlack apparel was born. Since that time, Reggie has sold over 3,100 shirts, sweatshirts hoodies through his online store
