About this Event

BLACK MOM SOCIETY — COMMUNITY CIRCLE SERIES

Session 1: Root & Rise — Finding Your Village

Friday, June 19, 2026 · 5PM–6:00 PM EST· Juneteenth

What if you walked into a room and felt — finally — like you were home?

That's what we're building at Black Mom Society. And we're launching on Juneteenth — because there is no better day to come home.

Root & Rise is the first of five free Friday evening community circles hosted by Dr. Makeda J. Greene, Ph.D — school psychologist, parent coach, Brooklyn native, and founder of Black Mom Society. Each session is intimate (limited to 70 seats), culturally grounded, and designed specifically for mothers who are ready to exhale.

What to expect on June 19:

• An evening designed with care. A space where you can arrive as you are- and not have to explain yourself.

• Moments of reflection, moments of connection, moments that remind you that you're not carrying this alone.

• Intentional conversation. A room that feels like it was made for you.

This is not a conference. It's not a panel. It's not a networking event. It's a return- to yourself, and to community.

The full series:

June 19 — Root & Rise (this session) · June 26 — In Her Body · July 10 — Her Money, Her Power · July 17 — Legacy Lab · July 24 — She's Ready

Where: The Google Space at Pier 57,Oyster Room, Chelsea Piers, New York City,

Cost: Free. Always. · Capacity: 70 seats — register to hold your spot.

Presented by Dr. Makeda J. Greene, Ph.D · blackmomsociety.com · @blackmomsociety
