The theme of this year's Celebration appropriate in this time of transition is taken from the title of a book by Dr. King, "Where Do We Go From Here Chaos or Community?" The program will feature Donzaleigh Abernathy, daughter of Civil Rights leader Ralph David Abernathy, making the connection of the 60s Civil Rights Movement and the Black Lives Matter Movement. Other presentations will also focus on this theme.
Pomo youth community activist and educator, Rose Hammock, will begin the program with an opening ceremony. There will be music, theatre and spoken word performances by Benjamin Mertz, Tru Lyric, Sky-i, Jacqueline Lawrence, Tina Rogers, Prayer Chapel Singers, Alejandro Guerrero, Piercey Bastoni. Youth presentations and students art will be featured. Rev. Lee Turner will close the program with a benediction.
