Ready to embark on a profound journey into the heart of the African Diaspora's spiritual legacy? Join us on Thursday, August 14, for our upcoming faith-based program "Rooted & Connected – Faith, Identity & the African Diaspora." This inspiring interfaith dialogue promises to illuminate the powerful intersections of identity, belief, and community.
This discussion will engage with diverse voices from various African religion backgrounds, including Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, and Islam. Attendees will learn more on how faith has served as a cornerstone of healing, empowerment, and courage for generations.
Our incredible interfaith panel, featuring renowned faith leader, psychologist, and author of "Church Girl" Dr. Sarita Lyons, Rabbi Tamar Manasseh, Dr. Kamilah Majied, and Brother Deandre Muhammad, will guide us through these vital conversations. As keynote speaker, Dr. Lyons will offer profound insights into the pivotal role of the Black church in shaping personal and communal identity.
