Freedom Buses began in the 1960s as a peaceful protest to highlight the inequalities that Black and People of Color faced in America and England. This autumn, Afri-Co-Lab invites Black folks, People of Color, and their chosen families to ride the BLACK2HASTINGS Freedom Bus for a joyous gathering of Black and Global Majority folks building community, enjoying space, and sharing joy with each other.
Join Afri-Co-Lab Teamiees on a community road trip for an exciting evening of artistic performances commissioned by Home Live Art
Enjoy the freedom and confidence of feeling comfy and welcomed in your national institutions!
