A special episode of Listen, St. Louis with Carol Daniel, was recently recorded live at an event at the Missouri History Museum.
For many, this important national holiday commemorates the true abolition of slavery in the United States. In the episode “Exploring the Resilience and Strength of African Americans,” Carol Daniel sat down with historian Cicely Hunter, professor Dr. Tandra Taylor, and others in a discussion exploring the history of Juneteenth, the past and present impact on our region, and the enduring significance in our community.
Check out a preview and photo gallery of the event below, which included food trucks, gallery tours, and a special musical performance from Dr. Philip Woodmore, Artistic Director of Voice, COCA.
Thursday, June 19, 10:30 pm and Saturday, June 21, 7 pm on Nine PBS and livestream.
Available on YouTube June 18 at 7 pm and at ninepbs.org/listenstlouis.
