Living Room Legacies: Home, Land, Family Stories and Their Shaping of Black America

Join NCBAE for this immersive journey that explores the deep-rooted connections between our homes, our land, family stories, and culture as sacred spaces. Through conversations, storytelling, and reflection, it uncovers how Black American families have used their physical spaces to create legacies, express themselves, and preserve/create cultural identity. It offers a powerful platform for participants to share and celebrate the memories that have shaped their personal and collective identities, honoring home as a nostalgic vessel for both history and healing.
It’s a celebration of how we’ve used style, art, decor, and so much more to make it through, to create space and to be free!
Activities, panel discussion, community conversation, more!
