In honor of the Tallahassee-Leon County bicentennial, Leon County Government and The Village Square will host the ninth annual Created Equal program titled, “Created Equal: A Bicentennial Tribute to Black and Brown History” on Tuesday, May 7, at 5:30 p.m. at The Moon, 1105 E. Lafayette St. This award-winning program will examine the stories of Black and Brown communities, their achievements, and their contributions to our County’s history.
Interested attendees are encouraged to register for the event at LeonCountyFL.gov/CreatedEqual. The event is free, and dinner and refreshments will be provided.
In an effort to recognize the history of Black and Brown people in Tallahassee-Leon County, this year’s Created Equal will delve deep into the stories of resilience, determination, and remarkable accomplishments of the Black and Brown individuals who have called Leon County home throughout its two-century existence. The discussion, featuring academic experts, historians and community members, will shed light on these narratives and help residents understand that recognizing this history is not just an act of remembrance but a step towards a more inclusive future for all.
