OHR will be tabling and answering questions about language access and other civil rights laws at the DC Mayor's Office on African Affairs' 6th Annual DC Africa Festival. Each year, the Mayor’s Annual DC Africa Festival celebrates diverse communities of the District’s African diaspora through art, culture, cuisine, history, and music. Since its inception in 2010, the Festival has fast become one of the District’s most anticipated cultural events drawing thousands of attendees.

The festival stands as a unique testament to the unprecedented growth and presence of the District’s African residents. It further reflects the goals of MOAA’s Multicultural Awareness and Community Building Program –celebrating the varied identities of African people; promoting the different cultures within the District’s African community, and encouraging all District residents to learn about African heritage, customs, and history.
