I SPREAD MY WINGS AND I FLY- MAROONS IN THE U.S.

Education at the Crossroads and Where We Live team up again in a WBAI Fund-drive special featuring:

  •  A discussion with Nubia Kai – author of “I Spread My Wings and I Fly”                                         An historical novel based on the true story of the Maroons in the United States.  The Maroons in the United States were just as powerful and successful as the Maroons in Jamaica, Surinam, Brazil, Columbia, and Haiti, but this history has been thoroughly suppressed for centuries and is just now slowly coming out.
  • And Louise Dente talks about some pre -Kwanzaa events.
