Black Abolitionists
in Boston & Tulsa.
On the road to Emancipation
THANK YOU FOR joining us, Saturday, October 9th, between 12-2pm on the Plaza at Opening Our Doors (Christian Science Center/Opening Our Doors) for Interactive musical conversations and storytelling before Zili Misik's concert at 3pm!
Workshops were led by Kera Washington (of Zili Misik) & Letta Neely (poet and author).
Retracing routes of resistance, and focused on black colonial abolitionists who led in the march towards Emancipation, we explored our own restraints, stories of thriving black Bostonians of the 19th Century, and musical soundscapes in Ghanaian drum & dance, to inspire our continuing freedom marches.
Pre-registration below allowed us to have sanitized instruments ready to share.
THIS DAY WAS THE BEGINNING OF AN ON-GOING PROJECT JOINING BOSTON AND TULSA, AND AFRICAN DIASPORIC COUSINS.
Sign up below on our mailing list to stay in touch with us, as our project develops!
