Freedom Fest goes virtual
Birmingham Freedom Fest is an innovative event Saturday, July 25 at 3 p.m. to celebrate the triumphs of Birmingham and its commitment to forging a united future. Birmingham Freedom Fest will provide attendees an online avenue for engagement. U.S. Sen. Cory Booker, U.S. Rep. Terri Sewell, U.S. Sen. Doug Jones and voting rights activist Stacey Abrams will be the featured panelists. Rapsody, Translee, Pastor Mike Jr., Sherri Brown and Shaheed & DJ Supreme are among the roster of artists. Throughout the day, thought-provoking discussions, interactive videos and interviews will shine a light on issues of equality and civic engagement. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and for the safety of the community, the festival will be streamed live. Last summer, the inaugural festival was hosted in and around Kelly Ingram Park, which is in the footprint of the Birmingham Civil Rights National Monument. Registration is required.
