What is Juneteenth to the Colonized?

  • Making Worlds Bookstore & Social Center 210 South 45th Street Philadelphia, PA, 19104 United States (map)

Registration is required to attend. Register before the event here.


Join BAP Philly in a dismantling of the commodification of Juneteenth. We will engage the actual history of the holiday, its purpose, and why the state has found it useful to reframe it as a national holiday.


Please arrive 15 minutes early to register for the event and browse books. Buying a book before or after the event is a great way to support the Making Worlds project!
