August 18, 2012 2:00-5:00 PM Community Anya Egun Bembe

Sat. August 18 in Philly The Orisa Community Development Corporation We Humbly Request Your Presence at a Community Anya Egun Bembe Honoring Our Spiritual & National Ancestors
In Yorùbáland, every town or city has one or more Egungun masquerades. For the Lucumi, our tradition of Egun Bembe is usually for an individual to pay homage to his Orisa and/or family lineage, or for a house of Orisa to pay homage to its Ocha lineage. As members of the Orisa CDC share the bonds of a community of Orisa Worshippers, we will honor the Egun of both esteemed Olorisa and national heroes such as Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr., Sojourner Truth, Harriet Tubman and others. Saturday, August 18, 2012 2 pm - 5 pm 3429 West Clearfield Avenue (1 block from the intersection of 35th and Allegheny Ave.) Philadelphia, PA
