Free
Wear black in solidarity with the countless black Americans who have lost their lives to racist violence and gather in the CHOP for a day of group-focused activities on Juneteenth, including a guided meditation and yoga session, a flower crown-making activity, a grief ritual with Reagan Jackson, sound healing with Naa Akua, a DJ dance party with DJ Dark_Wiley, and more. The organizers add, "What we need from our non-black allies are donations of money and supplies and the willingness to support by quietly protecting sacred space for black healing. We need allies on the outskirts who are willing to be a physical barrier of protection and to peacefully deter potential interruptions."
