healing, equity, and justice in our communities.

The day will feature performances by Brooklyn United Marching Band, a choral performance by the Medgar Evers College Preparatory School Choir, story time by Tammy Hall, a dance performance by Brooklyn Ballet, and a jazz fellow led performance by the Alexandria DeWalt quartet.
