Join us for an unforgettable experience connecting with birds\, the community\, and the environment. \nTo learn more about the birds in Balboa Park visit the Balboa Park website. \n \nAbout Juneteenth \nJuneteenth is the oldest internationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. \nFrom its Galveston\, Texas origin in 1865\, the observance of June 19th as the African American Emancipation Day has spread across the United States and beyond. \nToday Juneteenth commemorates African American freedom and emphasizes education and achievement. It is a day\, a week\, and in some areas\, a month marked with celebrations\, guest speakers\, picnics and family gatherings. It is a time for reflection and rejoicing. It is a time for assessment\, self-improvement and for planning the future. Its growing popularity signifies a level of maturity and dignity in America long over due. In cities across the country\, people of all races\, nationalities and religions are joining hands to truthfully acknowledge a period in our history that shaped and continues to influence our society today. Sensitized to the conditions and experiences of others\, only then can we make significant and lasting improvements in our society. \nAbout Harriet Tubman \nBorn a slave around 1822—making this year the bicentennial of her birth—on the Eastern Shore of Maryland\, Araminta Ross\, later known as Harriet Tubman\, was an American abolitionist and political activist. She escaped and made some 13 missions to rescue roughly 70 enslaved people through the Underground Railroad\, a network of antislavery activists and safe houses.  \nShe was also a naturalist\, known for using an owl call to guide her family and others in their escape from slavery.  \nMuch of her early life was spent in nature\, in landscapes like ours in Piscataway Park: wetlands\, meadows\, and woodland areas. There she developed skills that helped in her quest for freedom.  \nWorking in timber fields\, Tubman learned how to be comfortable in the woods\, how to read the landscape\, and became familiar with the sounds of nature. Those sounds became signals to those escaping and their allies on the Underground Railroad to know when it was or wasn’t safe to come out of hiding. Tubman used calls from the Barred Owl\, or “hoot-owl\,” because it would blend in with the sounds of the night and not raise suspicion.

SUMMARY:43rd Annual Marcus Garvey Day Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Marcus Garvey Day is going virtual!\n\nMarcus said\, “…look for me in a whirlwind” and he is coming our way so we’re canceling Sunday’s event in person to keep you and our bands safe. Rob Symeonn and Michael Palmer are already here and they will be performing with Good Over Evil Sound and will be streaming to your home.\n\n\n\nOnline event will feature words by the honorable Marcus Garvey\, live performance by Michael Palmer\, Rob Symeonn\, Link N Chain plus words by a special guest!\n\nAbout Marcus\n\nMarcus Mosiah Garvey was born Aug. 17\, 1887\, in St. Ann’s Bay\, Jamaica\, and established the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League (UNIA-ACL) in 1914 in his home country before moving the headquarters to New York. \nIn 1923\, Garvey was convicted of mail fraud in connection to the Black Star Line program he established as a pathway to economic equality for Black people. Garvey was imprisoned and later deported\, and his surging movement in America was stalled as he never again returned to the states. The Garvey family maintains that the charges against the leader were trumped up in order to halt any momentum that Garvey gained in the fight for civil rights. \nCLICK BELOW TO WATCH TONIGHT AT 7:45PM \n \n

SUMMARY:Plant Spirit Meditations & Tea Tastings
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of these meditations is to connect deeply to the self\, the earth and the green kingdom. \nTo feel the universal energy that flows through all beings – humans\, animals\, plants & trees and the elements of earth\, water\, fire and air.

The way forward is by re-connecting and remembering who we are in the circle of life.  \nYou will learn how to taste tea like an herbalist. \nThe tea tasting is a way of waking up to the inner knowing\, the thinking and intelligence within our bodies. This knowledge allows us to connect to the plants\, to hear the plants\, to know the plants. \nThe plants remain our greatest teachers\, our direct connection to the teachings of the earth. These are ancient traditions that I am grateful to share\, as they were shared and taught to me. \nI hope you will join me in the circle of beloved belonging.  \nWhat to bring \nA cushion\, blanket or towel to sit on. A blanket if you might get cold.  \nA cup for tasting herbal tea.  \nA journal or something to write in.  \nWear comfortable clothes.  \nYour beautiful self to feel the love of the earth.  \nTips \nPlease arrive a few minutes early to park\, enter the garden and to get settled on your blanket or cushion. \nDress for the outside\, layers are usually best.  \nParking: You can park along Park Blvd\, or directly across the street from World Beat Center is a free public parking lot.

SUMMARY:Capoeira Batizado 2023
DESCRIPTION:The Batizado is an annual initiation ritual and ceremony which has evolved and morphed over the centuries\, honoring the practice of Capoeira in a modern and global context. A student’s Batizado (Baptism) is the first time a student plays inside the Roda (Capoeira Playing Circle) with a Mestre de Capoeira (Master of Capoeira). It is an important rite of passage. Often\, a student may receive a new nickname that they become known by\, in the Capoeira World. In the past\, students would train for many months before they set foot in the Roda. Today\, although students may have experience playing inside the Roda\, the Batizado is considered their first real experience of the Jogo de Capoeira (Game of Capoeira). It is the official welcome and blessing. Another important aspect of the Batizado is the ‘Troca de Cordelî’  (the exchange of belts). Mestres play one or more games with the older students and acknowledge their achievements by awarding them higher belts.

SUMMARY:Sacred Sisters: An Elemental Womb Clearing Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to join us for a powerful sacred sister ceremony designed to purify your auric field\, focusing on transmuting energy held in the womb space \nJoin us on the grounds of the amazing World Beat Center\, founded by Makeda Cheatom\, for the opening of this potent portal. \nDuring this afternoon of community\, we’ll gather outside on the land to call in the elements and experience the following: \n  \n•    Sacred Cacao Circle (cacao will be infused with ashwagandha + butterfly pea + rose) \n•    Group Earth Mandala creation \n•    Womb-centered Sound Journey with Crystal Activation \n•    Bonfire release ceremony \nAs we work to heal our own womb\, we spread healing to those who have come before us – and thus\, to the womb of our great Mother Gaia. We have all endured our own suffering through trauma\, repression\, shame\, grief\, guilt and loss. This ceremony will be a potent space to call on our ancestors in acknowledgment of their suffering along with our own\, with the intention to cleanse and send it all into the Light with loving kindness. \nSacred exchange: $55 \nPlease dress for comfort and warmth and bring a yoga mat and blanket.  You are encouraged to gather and bring any items or plants you feel called to add to the Earth Mandala that will be burned at the end of the ceremony. \nFor this event\, we are offering two BIPOC scholarships for those who don’t have the funds to attend. \nAbout Najah A. Salaam\, Crystal Shaman \nNajah has been practicing the healing arts since 2013 as a licensed acupuncturist in San Diego. She has always had an affinity for crystals\, making healing jewelry for her patients for various issues. Her crystal knowledge solidified after finding her teacher and studying Stone Medicine – an oral Daoist tradition passed down 88 generations. She is now the proud bearer of this knowledge and offers crystal healing sessions in person and from a distance. Her hope in this life is to spread the healing power of crystals to all people so they can begin to incorporate the crystals and stones in their lives as the healing beings they are. \nAbout Lindsey Roach\, Sound Healer \nLindsey Roach is a certified sound healing and reiki practitioner who loves holding space for others to tap into their vibrant inner light and heart song. She is passionate about creating cosmic sound experiences that journey deep and nurture awakening\, trusting that all feelings and sensations surface and unfold exactly as intended for each listener. She joyfully guides others in quieting their mind and relaxing into their bodies\, allowing them to shift into the expansiveness of the present moment through the power of vibration. She’s profoundly connected to her gongs and uses various other instruments and sound tools to form a diverse and all-encompassing blanket of sound.
