[ARCHIVED] Sankofa's International Day of Remembrance Ceremony - June 11, 11 am-2 pm

Chadra walk to shekere

This day honors the millions of African men, women and children who perished during the Middle Passage. Join The Sankofa Projects as they educate and celebrate the richness and diversity of the African diaspora and bring awareness to this tragic chapter in American and global history. The program includes African drumming, songs, dance, poetry, historical presentations and a traditional African libation at noon.

The museum is partnering with the Fort Monroe Authority, Fort Monroe National Monument, and the Casemate Museum to present these “Arc of Freedom” programs in June. We are grateful for their support.
