Celebrate Juneteenth with A JOURNEY, an intricate look at the Black experience told through the eyes of the Black woman and performed by professional actress and singer Kimberly Wilson.

Seven women, seven pivotal generations, present to you their stories through song, movement and dialogue and how ultimately their faith, hope, and calling help shape the America we know today. Joyful celebrations and painful reflections are rendered artistically to tell a story of persistence and courage and how our Black womanhood is another thread that weaves together the fabric of America’s History.

Included in this journey are historical reflections from a Native African Queen, a Slave Girl, Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, Rosa Parks, and more.
