What To The Slave Is the 4th Of July?" Exposition

What To The Slave Is the 4th of July?” Exposition is a powerful artistic gathering that invites poets, musicians, and visual artists to reflect, respond, and reimagine freedom through creative expression. Inspired by the historic words of Frederick Douglass, this event creates a space for truth-telling, cultural expression, and collective reflection on the meaning of independence.

Through live performances, spoken word, music, and art, artists will explore themes of liberation, resistance, identity, and hope. This exposition is both a celebration of Black creativity and a call to consciousness—bringing the community together to honor the past while envisioning a more just and liberated future.
