Bridging Communities, Building Unity




As our first blog, we thought it appropriate to enliven you all with great footage, fhotos and fire from the amazing events of Friday, December 5th & Saturday, December 6th.

Friday night's screening and panel discussion was excellent, insightful and inspiring.

Big appreciation to Temple University, Muna Johnson & Kenya Raimey (African-American Studies Program), film maker Black to Our Roots Ras Tre Subira (Black Missions Media), Stephanie Tisdale (Liberator Magazine), Brother Gabe Bryant & Sister Shesheena Bray (Sankofa Community Empowerment Group), and our special guest Mama Charlotte O'Neal (A Panther in Africa) representing Tanzania and the United African Alliance Community Center of Arusha.
