Relatives of Old TimerS (ROOTS) 2024 Celebration
About This Grant
In the early 1970's a dinner invitation went out from long time Black Seattle residents Arline and Letcher Yarbrough to eight couples who had been close friends thirty and forty years before, seeing each other frequently and sharing many interests. The more recent years found them scattered and out of touch. The response to the invitation was excellent. All who were still living in the Seattle area accepted; eager to see old friends again. The result of that gathering was the foundation for Relative of Old Timers (ROOTS) Celebration. This year, ROOTS is celebrating 52 years on Sunday, September 1, 2024 from 10am-6pm. The committee has decided that 2024 will be the last year that we will host this large public celebration. We plan to sunset this event by honoring our elder leaders of the Civil Rights Movement in the Pacific Northwest as well as the sense of community this celebration has meant to Black Seattleites over the years. We are seeking NMF funding to do just that.
