The Harambee Celebration of Culture/Soul Festival took place in Wilkinsburg.
The festival was curated to uplift the culture of Blackness through live music, food, African garments, and dancing.
We had the opportunity to catch up with two people who attended.
Chantel Gaines said, "Harambee was a good time. I especially enjoyed the beans and rice, yams, and greens. The best part about summer festivals are the family reunion vibe it brings. It makes you laugh, dance, and feel closer to your community."
"Anything that involves summer weather and soul food, you can count me in! I enjoyed the Soul Drip Band, and there was plenty for my kids to enjoy. We had a good time and looking forward to attending again in July," Josiah Newsome said.
Harambee pt.2 will be July 19-24th in Braddock at the Civiv Plaza.
