SUMMARY:Dark Tower Day Party - March On! Fest in Washington\, DC
DESCRIPTION:Step into the glittering world of the Harlem Renaissance\, where art\, politics\, and pleasure converged in a swirl of brilliance and defiance. Inspired by the legendary gatherings at A’Lelia Walker’s Dark Tower salon—the top floor of her Harlem townhouse on 136th Street—this closing celebration channels the glamour\, intellect\, and audacity of an era that redefined Black creativity. The Dark Tower was the gathering space for the luminaries of the day—artists\, writers\, musicians\, poets\, their patrons\, and friends from Walker’s travels abroad. \nPoetry drifts through the crowd\, an aerialist twists gracefully overhead\, and the rhythms shift through an intellectual and emotional journey on the history of Black music—from the swing of the 1920s to the grooves of funk\, the pulse of hip hop\, and the global beat of Afro Beats. A spirited conversation between A’Lelia Bundles\, granddaughter of the original “Joy Goddess\,” and March On! Artistic Director Isisara Bey will bring to life the stories\, style\, and cultural impact of Walker’s famed salon\, connecting its legacy to the artistry and activism of today. \nThought-provoking dialogue intertwines with artistry\, as reflections on legacy mingle seamlessly with the thrill of the moment. Laughter mingles with the clink of glasses\, rich flavors tempt your palate\, and a table of carefully curated books invites you to take a piece of the experience home. \nMore than a party\, it’s a living tribute to a cultural awakening—an afternoon to be inspired\, to connect\, and to carry the spark forward. \nSpecial Guests: \nA’Lelia Bundles\, author of Joy Goddess: A’Lelia Walker and the Harlem Renaissance\, the vibrant biography of her great-grandmother and daughter of Madam C.J. Walker.\nDr. Msia Kibona Clark\, Associate Professor of African Studies\, College of Arts & Sciences\, Howard University\nChi Akano\, aerialist\nSoundscape by Vessel Studios\nDJ R WE ON THE AIR?!\nIsisara Bey\, Artistic Director\, March On!\nHoward University Alumni Actors\nBookstore Activation by Mahogany Books \nDoors open: 12:45pm \nEvent starts: 1:00pm \nAutoShop\n416 Morse St NE\, Washington\, DC\, 20002\nSeptember 21\, 2025\, 1:00 – 3:00 PM EDT

SUMMARY:National Center for Civil & Human Rights in Atlanta
DESCRIPTION:A live conversation with author A’Lelia Bundles about her new book | Re-Opening Weekend \nCelebrate the return of the National Center for Civil and Human Rights with Cup of Truth\, featuring journalist and author A’Lelia Bundles in conversation about her new book Joy Goddess: A’Lelia Walker and the Harlem Renaissance. \nBundles brings to life her great-grandmother A’Lelia Walker — daughter of Madam C. J. Walker and a dazzling force of the 1920s Harlem Renaissance. Dubbed the “joy goddess of Harlem” by Langston Hughes\, Walker inherited her mother’s empire and transformed it into a cultural salon for legends like Zora Neale Hurston\, Paul Robeson\, and W. E. B. Du Bois. \nThis is more than a biography. It’s a story of joy as resistance\, legacy as power\, and one woman’s quest to define herself on her own terms. \nIncluded with museum admission. Held in the Center café. \nScreenshot

SUMMARY:A'Lelia Interviews L. Michelle Smith at MLK Library in DC
DESCRIPTION:A’Lelia interviews L. Michelle Smith about L. Michelle’s new book “Call & Response: 10 Leadership Lessons from the Black Church” at MLK Library in Washington\, DC \n \nFrom the MLK website: \nThrough rich storytelling\, this keynote shares how powerful Black women (and men) in the Fortune 500\, education\, arts\, and entertainment trace their earliest leadership lessons back to the church. \nDid you know that humming a gospel tune before walking into a high-stakes meeting can rewire your brain to lead more effectively? The act triggers a release of dopamine\, oxytocin\, and serotonin—regulating emotions\, lowering anxiety\, and activating the reward center to halt fear from taking over your executive decision making..and not just any music can do this. It’s neuroscience. But for many Black professionals\, it’s simply ritual—a practice rooted in the traditions of the Black Church. \nWe’ve practiced powerful\, emotionally intelligent leadership for generations—without calling it that. Until now. \nWhat the Audience Will Take Away \n● A contemporary leadership framework rooted in both legacy and research\n● A reintroduction to the practices that shaped them—and the science that validates them\n● A call to lead with conviction\, cultural intelligence\, and heart—without apology
