Historically Black Phrases Live! in DC

HISTORICALLY BLACK PHRASES LIVE! is a live game show experience, based on the book . Hosted by co-authors (and podcasters and journalists!) hill and Anderson, HBP Live! is the game show you didn't know you needed! Each show features three notable local contestants competing in rounds of gameplay rooted in trivia about Black culture. This year a special category will shine a light on "The Negro Motorist Green Book." The highest-scoring contestant advances to a final round in which they're tested on all things Boo Boo The Fool — and other Historically Black Phrases! Lucky audience members get a chance to play for prizes, too!

HBP Live! in DC is supported by the DC Public Library Foundation. Attendance is FREE with RSVP. Seating is first come, first serve.
