  • Description: Central Brooklyn Jazz Consortium producers of the 12th Annual Central Brooklyn Jazz Festival from April 1 - April 30, 2011, invites your organization to participate in Brooklyn's longest continuous running jazz festival. The festival fee is $200. This cost to venues helps pay for: press conference, collateral materials, advertising (radio and print). Participants pay for programs they contract with. Administrative and other programming costs are not included in the festival fee (CBJC absorbs this expense). Promotions begin in late November. Brooklyn Tourism and Visitor's Center, an initiative of Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz, is a major supporter of the Central Brooklyn Jazz Festival. The exposure Brooklyn venues get as a collective is greater than as an individual. The jazz presentation is selected and paid for by the each venue and ALL receipts go to that organization. This festival is supported by the people of Brooklyn, our legislative leaders and community businesses

  • The Brecht Forum and AfrobeatRadio Presents, The Elombe Brath Global Africa Series

    The Elombe Brath Global Africa Series

    First Forum: Why is the DR Congo Genocide Being Ignored?

    Speaker: Yaa-Lengi Ngemi

    ● Over 7 million people have been killed in the most

    heinous imaginable ways: cremated, buried alive,

    decapitated, slaughtered in masses.

    ● Hundreds of thousands of women and young girls

    have been gang-raped and mutilated.

    ● Hundreds of thousands have been tortured.

    ● Millions have been displaced.

    On October 1, 2010, the UN finally released the so-called

    “Mapping Report, 1993 – 2003” on the Democratic

    Republic of Congo, which documented most serious

    violations of human rights and international humanitarian

    law perpetrated by Rwanda in the DRC genocide.

    What is the significance of this report? What is the significance of the many NGO’s reports

    documenting the fact that the president of the Congo has been assassinating Congolese

    civilian and military leaders as well as civilians in Kinshasa?

    And, why the world’s SILENCE?
