A quick video compilation created by the City of VA Beach Arts & Humanities Commission, which sponsored this engaging program for our community, featuring Jamin Beats, Onyansapow Bowaanopow, Asaase Yaa Cultural Foundation, and the TACA Diaspora Dance Ensemble. What a great time we had on May 20!

We thank: the VA African Diaspora Committee for making Bill HJ133 proclaiming every September as African Diaspora Heritage Month a reality; Distinguished guests, local leaders - Norfolk Delegate Jackie Hopes Glass and Mayor Dr. Kenny Alexander - and international dignitaries - HE Joaquim do Espírito Santo, Angolan Ambassador to the US - for their attendance and participation; and the Old Dominion University Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice, Office of Academic Affairs, Office of Community Relations, and Office of Intercultural Relations for hosting and making the event physically possible; Eastern VA Medical School for health screenings; and support and funding from VA Humanities, Prosper Africa, and the Hampton Roads Community Foundation.
