CAfED is all about celebrating diversity. My purpose in posting these educational programs/events is so that we allow ourselves to see, feel, taste, smell and touch the human heart outside of the world we identify ourselves in.
Here are just a few I feel will empower us with information that can hopefully help us understand the importance of recognizing strength in diversity.

Hidden In The Vault - 50 Years
In 1969, The Harlem Cultural Festival Concert took place at Mount Morris Park known today as Marcus Garvey Park. It was supported by the biggest black artists and allies who believed for CHANGE in the black community. The concert occurred simultaneously while Woodstock concerts were in progress. The world heard about Woodstock and mankind finally landing on the moon but not much from anyone including a tiny coverage from the media. Fortunately, the entire concert was documented on film but due to no interest, it sat in a vault for 50 years. Finally released in 2020, this project was proudly displayed on the silver screen. It became the most talked about documentary film of the year winning up to 46 awards including two 2021 Sundance film Festival, six Critics Choice Awards and an Oscar nomination for best documentary feature.
