All of Us- Black August: Fasting

Black August was started in the 1970’s by incarcerated men marking the long fight for black liberation including the fact that Marcus Garvey’s birthday, the first enslaved Africans landed here in 1619, the Haitian Revolution all took place in August. To celebrate the month, All of Us will be hosting a series of conversations about the different facets of Black August. The first session featured All of Us co-founder, Jamaica Miles hosting Patrick Stephens to discuss the value of fasting.
