Join us at 2:00 PM at the Community Haven, 815 N. Hickory Street, East Chattanooga for a powerful Father’s Day gathering honoring Black fathers, families, children, legacy, and community. This is a special FREE program featuring Dr. Gina Paige, Co-Founder of African Ancestry.
Presented as part of Black Arts & Ideas: Community Engagement — Scratching Your Roots: Black Genealogy Society, this powerful conversation will explore why identity matters, why ancestral roots matter, and why reconnecting Black families to their history is essential for our children and our future.
Dr. Paige’s work helps Black people reconnect with their African roots through DNA testing, family history, and cultural identity. Her message is deeply connected to the purpose of Juneteenth: remembering what was taken, reclaiming what was hidden, and celebrating the strength of who we are.
Come for the brunch. Stay for the 2:00 PM community program. Bring your family. Bring your children. This is about legacy.
