About this Event

We are partnering with New Bethel Baptist Church and Triumphant Church to host Black Saturday, a day of acknowledging the legacy of activism in the Black church and the impact of Black businesses on the DMV community.

We will have an author talk with AND Campaign president, Justin Giboney, to discuss his new book, Don't Let Nobody Turn You Around and feature a business expo with 20+ Black and women-owned businesses. We hope you can join us for a morning of history, culture, and reflection on how we can continue to build and support our community for a better future.
