SUMMARY:CAP UCLA presents Meshell Ndegeocello's celebration of James Baldwin
DESCRIPTION:CAP UCLA presents Meshell Ndegeocello’s celebration of James Baldwin \nChapter and Verse: The Gospel of James Baldwin is a 21st-century ritual tool kit for justice\, shared in isolation\, bridging communities around the world. Inspired by James Baldwin’s seminal treaty on justice in America\, The Fire Next Time\, the project was created during the time of two raging pandemics plaguing the United States — COVID-19 and racism. \nParticipants are invited to engage in an urgent and critical investigation of race\, religion\, sexual orientation\, America and its status quo\, celebrating Baldwin’s ideas and legacy through music\, meditations\, and visual imagery. The vernacular of a church service\, structured rituals and worship\, and other forms of sacred practice\, inspire the gifts offered each month from September-December 2020\, free of charge. \n\n Call: Dial a toll-free telephone number to discover songs\, meditations\, and chants to ease your mind any time\, day or night\, when you need it most. 1-833-4-BALDWIN (1-833-422-5394).\n See: Experience visual testimonies of Baldwin’s text\, with original music created by Meshell and artistic collaborators\, including Suné Woods\, Nicholas Galanin\, and Charlotte Brathwaite.\n Read: Sign up for the monthly printed newsletter\, featuring Baldwin’s words and calls to action\, delivered four times\, directly to your mailbox.

SUMMARY:FESTIVALS IN THE CITY OF ANGELS: KWANZAA IN LEIMERT PARK VILLAGE
DESCRIPTION:FESTIVALS IN THE CITY OF ANGELS: KWANZAA IN LEIMERT PARK VILLAGE \n\nThursday\, December 17\, 2020   |   5:00 pm – 6:00 pm\n\nKwanzaa is a relatively new holiday\, created in 1966\, following the Watts Rebellion\, to bring the Black community together. Today\, it is celebrated annually around the world\, most notably on the West Coast in Leimert Park Village\, the vibrant heart of Black culture in Los Angeles.

The program will culminate with a dance class led by Kamilah Marsh and Keti Ciofassa\, giving participants an opportunity to embody the principles of Kwanzaa. \nThis program is co-presented by UCLA’s Department of African American Studies\, in partnership with We Love Leimert. \nREGISTER HERE\n\nFestivals in the City of Angels\nThis series connects museum programs with communities across the city in order to better understand manifestations of lived religions in Los Angeles and honor local expressions of global faiths.
