HW Pick: November @ Hue-Man

Dear Hue-Man Customer,

 

 

  

The HISTORY-MAKER
 

We waited to see the results of the election before we sent the calendar of events for November, I’m sure you don’t mind as the reason was profound.  We were hopeful about the results of the election and wanted to acknowledge History in the making, especially the History that Hue-Man has worked so hard to preserve. It has been trying times for all of us, Hue-Man included, but we stand firm in our conviction to continue against every and all odds to be here for you.  To honor this moment and to make sure you understand the man behind the man who will be the 44th President of the United States of America for the month of November we offer all Hue-Man customers a 30% discount on Barack’s Dream From My Father and Audacity of Hope. No doubt last night was a night of awe but most importantly it reaffirmed that democracy in America is alive and well and as long as that is the case, as Barack said…we are not a nation or red and blue sates…we are the United States of America….where progress can always happen.    Our November calendar is filled with hope and inspiration and we ask you to join us.  As always we need your support more now than ever but we also need you to help us celebrate with some of our very best authors, Toni Morrison, musician, Wynton Marsalis and entrepreneurs Ervin Magic

Johnson…..so below is the line up…welcome home…
