Juneteenth: Honoring the Echos of our Ancestors

Schedule

Wed Jun 19 2024 at 09:00 am to 11:00 am

Location

Oak Cliff Cemetery | Dallas, TX

In observance of the Juneteenth holiday, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated®, Alpha Xi Omega Chapter is leading the efforts of “The Oak Cliff Cemetery Project.” This collaborative community service project consists of cleaning approximately 200 grave sites and placing flowers and flags on each grave marker. Many being the graves of former slaves, this area of the cemetery has been neglected for many years. The morning will conclude with a time of recognition and reflection of this significant day of service and holiday at the Greater El Bethel Church, which was built by enslaved people.
We need your help. If you or your organization would like to volunteer or donate flowers and flags, please message us directly.
