Last month, Brown Deer Park came alive as hundreds gathered for Milwaukee’s annual African Cultural Festival, hosted by Africans in Milwaukee, Inc. Now in its 16th year, the festival brings together communities across the African diaspora, reminding all who attend that “if you don’t know where you come from, you don’t know where you’re going.”
More than 25 countries were represented through music, dance, and food — from rice and beef to fried turkey and Caribbean favorites. Beyond the celebration, the festival serves as a way for Africans and African Americans to reconnect with heritage, foster unity, and pass down traditions to the next generation.
A day filled with joy, culture, and community, the festival shows that while languages and customs may differ, bonds of love, heritage, and shared history continue to unite.
