Emerald City Black Pride is happening this weekend! The events for the weekend are part of an initiative to foster pride and strengthen the sense of community among LGBTQ people of color with a focus on African-Americans. It is a reflection and celebration of our diversity, voice and the values of our community.

The ECBP: #BlackLove Party, will be a night of hip-hop and soul music, dancing and community performances to celebrate that we, as a community, continue to survive against all odds and our voice is growing! With music by Sassyblack (Nah Bee), Darqness Seattle and others!

The next day we have the ECBP Family Reunion BBQ hosted at Alvin Larkins Park, will bring together all of our elders, children, friends, family and allies to celebrate what pride means to us all and hear from powerful community leaders, like Luzviminda Lulu Carpenter, Vanessa Grandberry, C Davida Ingram and Steven R Sawyer. Along with performances by Diamond Sj James, Dennis Jimerson (aka Regine Dynasty) and others!

While ECBP is focused on the African-American LGBTQ community we welcome and encourage other people of color and white allies to come and celebrate with us!!

This event is part of NW Pride of Color, a collection of events between Friday July 14th to Sunday July 30th, that have been created by and designed for the LGBTQ PoC communities of the Pacific Northwest.
