“Quote about Your Organization’s local Black Marriage Day 2022 event”, explained Your Organization’s Spokesperson [Title].
"Marriage has always mattered to the Black community, and this celebration lets the world know. We're creating a cultural shift in the Black community to reconsider the benefits of marriage and show the many couples who understand, “Marriage Changes Things”, Wedded Bliss Foundation Executive Director Dr. Nisa Muhammad said. “Much of what we hear about marriage in the Black community is a blues song about low rates, out-of-wedlock births, escalating divorces, and how somebody did somebody wrong. We are replacing that blues song with a love song of joy. We are Counting Our Marriages as Joy.”
Black Marriage Day has been celebrated annually at locally sponsored events hosted by faith-based and community groups on the fourth Sunday of March since 2003. Dr. Muhammad said marriage activists in more than 300 cities participated in 2022.
Wedded Bliss Foundation and Black Marriage Day activities have been featured nationally in the Washington Post, Black Enterprise, and Essence magazines, on CNN, and more.
