The City of Charlotte’s website boasts that “2010 is a big year” for the Queen City. It certainly is. That’s because Charlotte is the fifth stop on the We Are Africa Road Tour 2010!

We are excited that the Harvey B. Gantt Center for African American Art + Culture has partnered with us to bring a celebration of our historical, cultural, and genetic connections to Africa to Charlotte on Thursday, August 5th. Mayor Anthony Foxx has also agreed to join us for a reveal of his maternal roots!

USA Griot will be on-hand to offer information about genealogy too. Check back here or on Facebook to see who our cultural performers will be!
