Baratunde returns to hometown DC for How To Be Black Event February 13

Pimp daddy Baratunde -love the jacket

Come one come all. Come have a ball! Monday February 13th will feature special back-to-back events with me! I’m coming home. We’ll start with a 6:30 pm presentation/reading/Q&A at the National Press Club then move to Blackbyrd at 14th & U for the official after party. 

It’s the heart of Black History Month plus How To Be Black plus Chocolate City. It doesn’t get much blacker. Come out, get books, laughs and autographs and just kick it. Blackly. Yes, I just invented a new adverb: blackly

Full event details are here on Facebook where we encourage you to RSVP so we have a count. Note that you’ll have to RSVP for the National Press Club portion (by emailing opus@press.org) which has a cover charge of $5.
