Black Power Freedom Party & Reception: The 10 Points and Beyond

  • St. John's College 60 College Avenue Annapolis, MD 21401 (map)

We’re pleased to serve as the book vendor for the upcoming Black Power Freedom Party and Reception.

In honor of Maryland’s Year of Civil Rights, kick off Black History Month with the Maryland Commission on African American History and Culture!

Inspired by the Black Panther Party’s 10 Point Program, join us in a grand celebration as we pay homage to the radical Black history makers of Maryland who have fearlessly challenged the status quo and left a lasting mark on history, art, and culture. 

Program highlights include:

  • A curated conversation with Maryland native and NAACP Image Award-winning author, Carole Boston Weatherford

  • Live music by April Sampé & Dem B-More Katz

  • Black History Month Honorees Myrtis Bedolla, Carl Snowden, and more

  • A special pop-up exhibit dedicated to the evening’s honorees

  • Great food, and much more! 

Guaranteed to inspire activism and ignite forward-thinking conversations,  join us for an evening of honoring the past and calling to action for the present and future.
