Sound of Liberation: A Juneteenth Celebration

Calling all culture and history enthusiasts! Griot’s Table invites you to “Sounds of Liberation: A Juneteenth Celebration”, a gathering to honor the legacy of the women and men who fought tirelessly for Black liberation and justice, while honoring the Black culinary heritage that has sustained our communities for generations, and the songs and rhythms that have lifted our spirits and inspired our souls. From the Negro Spirituals of the Reconstruction era to the Soul and Funk of the civil rights movement, music has always been a vehicle for resistance,  building resilience, and joy. Join us as we sing, dance, and rejoice in the spirit of Juneteenth!
