In a Downtown Brooklyn plaza, Black history was celebrated in the form of music, dance and on big screens.

"So a lot of the stories are kind of about the ecological crisis going on right now or immigrant issues," said Lexi Tsien, of Downtown Brooklyn. "It gives us the opportunity to activate a plaza that, to be honest with you, in the middle of the winter, not many people find attractive, by some really interesting programming," said Regina Myer, with the Downtown Brooklyn Partnership.
