Diversity on Demand - Take Advantage of Black History Month (#Giveaway)


Throughout the month of February digital cable customers have the power in their hands to explore and learn about Black History Month at their own convenience.

Diversity on Demand puts diversity and multiculturalism just a click away for their customers. Beginning February 1st and wrapping up with Hispanic Heritage Month (Sept 15-Oct. 15) services are available through On Demand services.


“Like”  Diversity on Demand's Facebook Page  for programming updates, links to trailers on Black History Month and to be alerted to various contests and giveaways during the promotion.  Diversity on Demand will be celebrating multicultural movies throughout the year with exciting contests, polls, trivia, trailers and more. Don't miss out.


Black History Month programming for Diversity On Demand includes:

Milestones in Black History:  A look at the history of the struggles and strife, the tragedies and the triumphs of African-Americans in the U.S., including programming on the Civil Rights era. Everyone in the family can get in on the learning with documentaries like “The Black List” examining some of the reasons for Black History Month. And kids young and old can take a trip back in time understanding the importance of historical events with “Seizing Justice: The Greensboro 4,” “On the Shoulders of Giants” and “Birds of a Feather: Tuskegee Airmen.”

Profiles in Courage: The biographies of influential African-Americans come to life with dramatic profiles and stories of acclaimed leaders and others who are not so well known—but perhaps should be, such as that of Lena Baker in “Hope & Redemption: The Lena Baker Story.”

Dramas:  Programs and movies like “Independence Day” showcasing award-worthy performances from notable African-American actors such as Will Smith. You can also explore and share real-life family relationship dramas like “Braxton Family Values.”

Hearth & Home:  Savor shows like “Down Home with the Neelys” that provide a look at food and other aspects of modern African-American society.

Of the People: Program content that exemplifies the contributions made by multicultural talent, shows written by, starring, directed or produced by African-Americans, like Morgan Freeman in “Million Dollar Baby.”

Powerful Portrayals:  Storytelling has always been an important part of African-American culture. Drama fans can enjoy Black cinema offerings, which chronicle the challenges of African-American protagonists in a variety of ways.

That’s Entertainment: Laugh along with comedy specials such as “Chris Rock: Bigger and Blacker,” while romantic comedies warm the heart. If music is your thing, there are shows and movies such as “Ray,” the remarkable story of one of America's true musical geniuses, Ray Charles, that look into the past, present music-making of African-American artists.


The month is almost over, but there is still time to catch up and see everything you want to with On Demand.  My family will be sitting down to catch all the delicious recipes with "Down Home with the Neely's" and the documentary "The Black List". What will you be watching?
