About this Event

So far people from Belize, Barbados, Grenada are confirmed to attend.

We will talk about their history with slavery, how they obtained their independence, what's it like growing up there, what's the music, food, and so much more.

We will play different types of Caribbean music, show some videos and offer some Caribbean food and snacks

You will truly enjoy this.

Moderated by Anthony Brogdon, historian, author of three black history books, and host of internationally acclaimed podcast Strong Inspirations.

This is a fundraiser for the WGPR, donations accepted.
