Join the Bragtown Community Association for a Juneteenth Celebration centering Bragtown and the legacy of the Stagville descendants that made the thriving community of today possible. Over the years, Bragtown has been overlooked as an integral part of Durham’s cultural legacy, but through community healing, joyful celebration and fellowship we seek to bring the community together around the proud history that we want to vision forward! Join Bragtown residents to practice Sankofa -- gathering joy, power and wisdom from what has been for what will be.
