SUNDAY, JUNE 19th at 12:30 PM
Celebrate Juneteenth by commemorating a New Brunswick woman named 'Dinah' (aka 'Daanna Wilson') who was born into slavery and survived 100+ years of the American experience. This event will consist of a presentation with live music to sketch the life of 'Dinah' as we currently understand it, and to solicit feedback from community as we work towards making a documentary film that will premiere later this year.
