Juneteenth Celebrations Take Place Across America During Its First Year As A Federal Holiday
Freedom Fête, another Boston event, is providing a virtual dance party which features music that illustrates the contributions of the African Diaspora. The event is organized by the Institute Of Contemporary Art.
“Join us for Freedom Fête: A Virtual Juneteenth Celebration. A virtual dance party exploring how much musical innovation is an ingrained part of the Black legacy,” organizers said. “Genres innovated by Black musicians include gospel, jazz, blues, salsa, R&B, rock and roll, soul, funk, house, techno, hip-hop, and so much more.”
The four DJs who will lead the event plan to donate their tips to the National Bailout Fund and Boston’s Ujima Project, a group tackling issues such as gentrification, poverty, homelessness, lack of food access, unemployment and lack of healthcare.
Join us for Freedom Fête: A Virtual #Juneteenth Celebration. All proceeds go to Boston Ujima Project, For the Gworls, and Activation Residency–three grassroots organizations empowering Brown and Black womxn and trans people in Boston, New York, and beyond. https://t.co/t8MwAYvehi
