Speak Freely Foundation (SFF) is a non-profit organization, founded by Carlos Johnson in 2007, that mentors youth through poetry and boxing. Dennis Sessions is the owner of Sessions Crafts & Customs, which was founded with a vision to create sustainable/eco-friendly services and products, such as paintings, jewelry, sunglasses, sneakers, and more. Known as Master Drummer Dennis Sessions, he will facilitate an interactive drum circle with the sound of African drums for the finale performance at the event. Storyteller and Historian Damon Fordham is a licensed City of Charleston tour guide and lecturer of history, who will keep attendees engaged through his unique style of storytelling by infusing the sound of the melodica.
A portion of event proceeds will benefit Speak Freely Foundation (SFF). Krystal Klear Productions Founder and CEO Krystal Yeadon stated “I see the greatness in what Speak Freely Foundation has to offer. Poetry and boxing can be very positive but creative therapeutic outlets for children. I want to give back to this organization through Krystal Klear Kares, the giveback branch of my company, because I believe in the vision SFF holds, along with helping youth become better in positive ways.”
The Black History Soul Meet and Eat will be a family-friendly event that people of all ages can attend. Learning will not end with trivia at the event. Each child will leave with a black history activity book while supplies last. The books contain coloring pages, educational activities, and bios about historical African American figures.
