Weeksville Watchnight: Soul to Soul (1971)

Join us as we watch the iconic 1971 documentary capturing a landmark Pan-African concert in Ghana celebrating the country’s independence, featuring legendary performances by Ike & Tina Turner, Roberta Flack, and more.

This screening is presented in connection with , a Brooklyn-based celebration presented by the Divine Times Collective that centers healing, culture, and community across the African diaspora.

Soul to Soul was chosen because its spirit of Pan-African connection, artistic exchange, and collective joy directly inspired the vision for POW Fest. Just as the concert in Ghana became a bridge across continents, POW Fest seeks to build bridges across our diasporic communities here in Brooklyn and beyond.

Following the film, join us for a dialogue with therapists and social workers on healing, identity, and the diaspora.
