Black Connections MFA Walking tour Aug. 1st, 3:00pm
In memory of Beloved Elder Baba Runoko Rashidi, please join Bro. Joel for a live stream afternoon tour of OurStory artifacts in the Museum of Fine Arts galleries. We’ll connect objects from the Nile river valley to the ‘Afro-Commonwealth’ together in a way that helps Black folks think better of ourselves. As we continue in the battle to win the WAR and point out the way like our ancestors/ankobia did/do, we will request you give not only your time and attention but also a monetary contribution. ALL donations received will be designated for Baba Rashidi’s daughter Assata.
