Plan to join us at the Majestic Theatre and Theatre Hill Bar on Tuesday November 5 for an evening celebrating the first black woman to run for President of the United States of America - an important first that is motivating people worldwide!

We'll gather together in camaraderie to share some chats, some music, a few themed mocktails/cocktails from the Theatre Hill Bar, plus a fun and energizing program that will include regular check-ins on the early poll returns...

While we can't guarantee the outcome of the election in the U.S., we CAN promise that you will leave this event feeling inspired to contribute to a more equitable and positive future in N.L.!

Tickets are $25 plus HST and processing fee - on sale now from the Majestic Theatre website!
St. John’s is home to a rich, diverse, and vibrant urban Indigenous community. Located on the ancestral and unceded territory of the Beothuk, the lands and waters in and around the City have traditionally served as a gathering place for the Mi’kmaq. The broader region of Newfoundland and Labrador continues to be home to diverse Indigenous Peoples, including First Nations, Inuit, and Métis. We honour and pay respect to the past, present, and future caretakers of these territories.

We also must acknowledge the labour theft extracted from people of African descent, used to build European wealth and economies globally, and in the Canadian nation state, including Newfoundland and Labrador’s shipbuilding and cod fishery industries, through the violence of trans-Atlantic enslavement.

We thank both First Light and the office of the Vice-Provost of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Anti-Racism at Memorial University for crafting and sharing these words that provide us with important perspectives.
