HBCUcon & VCDMA presents 'Introducing A Different World: #HBCUGeeks'

7:00 PM - 8:30 PM

HBCU CON

Geek culture, as we know, has become more mainstream than ever, and it has a rich history in every realm of media and beyond. From cosplay to comics, anime to Afrofuturism, it is a world that empowers (and employs) people of all backgrounds to celebrate all the things that make us unique.

Join us as we discuss the many ways in which people of color indulge, and even make a living, being an unapologetic nerd.
