First African Landing Commemorative Day in Vermont

This incredible showcase of Black talent and voices will commemorate the 401st anniversary of the landing of the first enslaved Africans in English-occupied North America in 1619. There will be storytelling, dance, drumming, spoken word, and more! The event will be live-streamed from Burlington, Vermont. Full program: https://firstafricanlandingvt.wordpress.com/agenda/

All proceeds from sponsorship will go to the New Alpha Missionary Baptist Church, the only church in VT that worships in the African American tradition.
