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:Tribute to the Reggae Legends Pre-Party: The Gladiators and the Meditations
DESCRIPTION:Both legendary roots reggae groups from Jamaica: the Meditations and the Gladiators. You don’t get to see these roots groups that often. Don’t miss this\, two foundation groups\, from the home of Reggae Jamaica. \nThe Meditations are among the most beloved and respected harmony trios to emerge from the roots era of reggae during the 1970s. In 1999\, they returned better than ever with Ghetto Knowledge\, their first album together since 1992 and their only full-length release with Easy Star. After a successful career in Jamaica in the 70s\, including recording timeless hits like “Woman Is Like A Shadow\,” “Miracles\,” “Fly Natty Dread\,” and “Having Fun\,” the group recorded “Jah Music” for Easy Star Records’ debut compilation. The song was a favorite on reggae radio and the collaboration with Easy Star led to the release of Ghetto Knowledge in 1999. Ghetto Knowledge bears all of the trademarks of a classic Meditations record: gorgeous harmonies\, beautifully written songs and cultural lyrics. Many of the tracks had been written in the 1970s and 1980s but had never been recorded for release before. This disc established The Meditations once and for all as one of the premier vocal groups in Jamaican history. \nThe Gladiators have been masters of the reggae arena for the past 30 years. After the rise and fall of many reggae artists and bands\, they remain one of the most influential reggae groups to date. The group’s original leader\, Albert Griffiths\, formed the legendary band – whose name was suggested to him on a bus by a fellow traveler who had just seen the movie “Ben Hur.” The concept of men who fought for their liberty against Babylon immediately struck a chord with Albert and remains a testament today of the difficult life and struggle of Jamaica. The Gladiators have proven on stage and in the studio that they are without a doubt one of the best and most enduring original real roots\, rock reggae bands. \nIn 2005 The Gladiators continue with the fresh new “Father and Sons” album recorded in Jamaica still faithful to their roots compositions delivering reggae music full of heart\, force and courage. Featuring Albert Griffiths’ two sons\, Anthony on drums and Al sharing lead vocals\, “Father and Sons” is a gripping reflection on life\, love and faith. \nCurrently Albert is in the process of turning The Gladiators over to his two sons he knows are capable of carrying on this musical heritage. With Anthony on drums setting the pace for the band and Al’s voice\, which is virtually indistinguishable from his father’s\, these two young reggae warriors have proven both live and in the studio that they are fully competent and are infusing a new\, youthful energy and substance to carry The Gladiators’ legacy into the future. The “New” Gladiators have already garnered tremendous response touring throughout Europe\, Brazil\, the South Pacific and Australia to as many as 70\,000 fans in mostly sold-out shows. They are poised and ready to spread their message to the rest of the world! \n \nMembers $20 | Non-Members $25\nInterested in becoming a WorldBeat Member?

SUMMARY:Native American Month Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate Native American Month with a blessing and drum circle by Tim Red Bird and the Red Warriors   \nAlso with us King Yellowman and Alika (with DJ Mykol Orthodox) \nAbout King Yellowman \nKing Yellowman has an incredible history in Reggae music. His upbringing at the Maxfield Home orphanage in Kingston and being albino in Jamaica were two obstacles he overcame and went on to be (at one time) the biggest reggae artist since Bob Marley. After winning a talent contest at Tastee Patties in Kingston\, Yellow went on to excite reggae crowds all over Jamaica and the rest of the world with his boastful and sometimes bodacious lyrics. His ability to ride rhythm and excite a crowd made Yellow an instant hit in Jamaica. After surgery an extended leave of absence from the record industry\, Yellowman began his comeback with the song “Blueberry Hill”\, and his career was re-launched. His first album for RAS came from producer Phillip ‘Fatis’ Burrell and was called “Yellow Like Cheese”. Coincidentally this was the start of a long and fruitful relationship with RAS and Yellowman and also RAS and ‘Fatis’ and his exterminator production. Yellowman has always been very professional to work with and always a respectful and reliable human being. He has managed to outlive his predicted fate of death and his performances are incredibly lively as he seems to have an unlimited amount of stage energy. We can only hope for the best for Yellowman. He has continued his hard work and his devotion to his family is to be complimented.  \nAbout Alika \nAlika (born Alicia Dal Monte Campuzano in Montevideo\, Uruguay and raised in Buenos Aires\, Argentina) is one of the most important artists in South America right now garnering millions of hits on Youtube…Alika’s latest album\, Mi Palabra\, Mi Alma (My Word\, My Soul)\, is just that: Reggae drums and Hip-Hop beats that help her bare her soul in rhymes and music. “El Don\,” a cumbia-infused Hip-Hop track featuring Argentine rapper La Liga made its worldwide debut last year as part of the soundtrack to the popular video game “Grand Theft Auto V”. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Mama Charlotte featuring film screenings
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, September 23rd\, 7-9pm\n\nAdimu Madyun new films\, “BEYOND TIME” & “Haiti & DEMM” featuring Charlotte Hill O’Neal\, Adimu Madyun and Brotha Peace plus our guest Mama C will be sharing some of her music and poetry\n\n\n\nCome join us for this free event at WorldBeat Cultural Center\n\n\n\nAbout Beyond Time Film\nIn the rejection phase of life a representative of Ogun is chosen by the Ancestors to regain his power regain his strength\, chosen to go beyond time to go through invisible doors opening portals into new worlds giving him access to keys that will allow him to continue his mission of clearing the path and finding the way\n\n\nAbout Charlotte Hill O’Neal\nCharlotte Hill O’Neal is known by several names. Residents of the Arusha region of northern Tanzania\, where she has lived for decades\, call her Mama C. Others call her Mama Africa because of the scarification on her cheeks and the ring piercing her nose\, and because she encourages the local youth to be proud of their culture and heritage. \nHer Orisha spiritual name is Osotunde Fasuyi. She was initiated several years ago as a priestess in the Yoruba belief system\, which originated about 10 000 years ago in present-day Nigeria. Enslaved Africans brought it to the Americas and the Caribbean\, where it syncretized with other belief systems and is now practiced throughout these areas.  \n\nCharlotte is bedecked in jewelry and beads. Some items represent Orisha deities and others are traditional Maasai beadwork. \n\nShe is a former member of the Black Panther Party\, who fled the United States with her husband Pete O’Neal half a century ago.  \nCharlotte speaks Swahili with a Midwest drawl and her skin is decorated with tattoos: a black panther on her left shoulder and Sankofa\, a symbol the Akan people of Ghana use to represent the importance of gaining knowledge and wisdom from the past\, on her arm. African instruments\, including the stringed nyatiti traditionally played by the Luo of present-day Kenya\, replace the gun once strapped across her body.

Nicknamed “Major” in his youth in Indianapolis and later known as “the Worcester Whirlwind” after his adopted hometown in Massachusetts\, he was the second African-American world champion in any sport (after Canadian-born bantamweight boxer George Dixon of Boston won his title in 1891).

SUMMARY:Dezarie Live
DESCRIPTION:Roots empress Dezarie has blessed the reggae community with her return to San Diego after several years with a VI stylee headlining set. \nGracious Mama Africa transports the incredible voice of Dezarie to a whole new level – the highest heights. Her foundation is firmly established in songs such as “Travelers” and the title track. The brilliance and clarity of Dezarie’s voice is reverently unveiled on “Exhalt”. Gracious Mama Africa abounds with pleas for social justice and racial equality with selections like “Poverty”\, “Strengthen Your Mind” and “Justice”. \nBut to this listener\, the strength and power of Dezarie is most strikingly displayed in her condemnation of so-called civilization. “Gone Down”\, “Not One Penny”\, “Law Fe De Outlaw”\, “Slew Dem An Done” and “Judgment Come” all deliver conscious punches that penetrate the soul. \n“Do what you want\, wheresoever you please. Bombing Vieques\, yes your bombing the seas. Lock up anyone that was opposing. Speaking against the nonsense that you were doing. But babylon you gone down\, you gone down. Babylon funeral\, you gone down.” – Dezarie \nAfter receiving Atlanta’s “Best New Female Reggae Artist” award in 2001\, Dezarie returned to her native island of St. Croix. Since that time\, she has been working closely with Midnite\, the players of instruments for “Gracious Mama Africa”. Midnite’s trademark sound is fully displayed on this album. Momentous bass lines from Phillip Merchant\, classic one-drop from Dion Hopkins and the bubbling of Ron Benjamin on keyboards prevail throughout\, accentuated by Abijah’s charismatic guitar playing. \nFrom the excellent overdubs of Dezarie’s voice to the flying symbols on “Slew Dem” it is evident that Ron Benjamin worked tirelessly in the production and mixing of this album. The fruits of this labour are eloquently displayed on Gracious Mama Africa which is sure to be one of the best roots albums of 2003.

SUMMARY:Crystal Hologram Activation and Sound Healing
DESCRIPTION:Join us in aligning your soul with a Crystal Hologram Activation and Sound Healing with Crystal Shaman and Licensed Acupuncturist\, Najah A. Salaam and\, Reiki Practitioner and Sound Healer Lindsey Roach. \nCome and experience the healing vibration of sound paired with crystals and gemstones that are used to unlock deep parts of our souls that need healing. You will experience the healing power of the gemstones and crystals on the body\, on specific points of a group our acupuncture meridians called the Extraordinary Meridians\, that directly access the deeper parts of the soul. When paired with the healing vibrations of sound healing instruments (gongs\, crystal singing bowls\, and more) the vibrations of the crystals increase\, which facilitates deep healing. \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 to crystals\, making healing jewelry for her patients for various issues. Her crystal knowledge became solidified after finding her teacher\, and being initiated into the Jade Purity Lineage of Stone Medicine – which is 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 that 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 own 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 a wide variety of other instruments and sound tools to form a diverse and all-encompassing blanket of sound. \n  \n
