A major celebration of Black art, history and culture returns to Fort Lauderdale at a pivotal moment in the national conversation about democracy, public memory and education.
This year’s Africana Arts and Humanities Festival, taking place this weekend, will have the theme, We, Too, Sing America: 250 years of Black Life and Culture, which draws inspiration from Langston Hughes’ poem, “I, Too.”
It will take place at the African American Research Library and Cultural Center, with a keynote conversation on Friday and cultural events, performances and readings all day Saturday.
