SUMMARY:Being Black in America: Discussion & Collective Action - Legacy Drama House
DESCRIPTION:What is it to YOU to be Black in America? This is a question we posed to seven Black Americans in our award-winning documentary\, Being Black in America. \nFilmed in 2024\, Being Black in America shows an array of different thoughts and attitudes behind Blackness and what it means to everyone on a personal level by asking one central question\, What does being Black in America mean to you? \nThis is not your ordinary screening. This is a bridge-building\, thought-provoking\, and an organizing event using film as a catalyst for change. Immediately following our screening\, we’ll hear from storytellers featured in the film\, followed by a Q&A as well as community-engaged entrepreneurs\, community leaders\, and educators to participate as a collective in an action item of our choosing. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Be sure to arrive early when doors open at 6pm to participate in a one-question survey that will be a part of our discussion after the film.

SUMMARY:Roc 6/19 Jazz Celebrating Black Music Month - Spiritus Christi Church
DESCRIPTION:Our musicians will fill the day with the best of live jazz music and dance. By holding the event here\, we are connecting Rochester to its own rich jazz history\, a history that has its roots in the music of enslaved people. It’s fitting that the event takes place during Black Music Month and in the same month that we celebrate the 160th anniversary of freedom from slavery\, June 19\, 1865.\nYour donations will be split between two worthy Rochester 501c3 organizations:\nThe Black Community Focus Fund is accepting donations to construct the Minister Franklin D. Florence Civil Rights Heritage Park in Baden Park. The new park will document the Black Freedom Struggle here.\nThe second organization is Agape Haven of Abundance\, which supports school children in one of Rochester’s most vulnerable zip codes. The program gives children a safe\, nurturing\, and educational environment\, with fun\, experiential learning activities and programming.\nClick here for highlights of the 2024 Jazz Event:\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ihc42tlVDk
