Black August Revolutionary Fire/Drum Circle
Every August, we commemorate the centuries-long struggle for Black
Liberation, and the sacrifices of our ancestors that allow us to
continue the work. This year's uprisings mark an important escalation in
the struggle... we gather on Saturday 8/29 7:30 PM – 9:30 PM (masks,
outdoors, 6 feet apart) to reflect on their precious contributions and
on our duty to carry the movement forward.
Program will include:
-an opening libation by Sis. Mawakana of Sisters of the Calabash
-lighting of a fire to reflect the freedom in our hearts
-live acoustic music set
-selected short readings by local movement leaders
-revolutionary drum circle led by Toussaint Liberator

Some drums and chairs will be available (plus sanitizer), but please
bring if you have your own.
Jericho Boston is part of an international network, steadfast in our
mission to honor those movement soldiers who have passed and to release
our elders- as well as new generations of political targets- still
locked in the empire's dungeons.
