2020:

“From Black to Gold,” Jul. 2020

Directed by Sara Horatius, this documentary was created in honor of our 50th anniversary. Although due to the pandemic, we did not have the weekend of celebration we envisioned, this documentary still captures the spirit, history, and faces of the Kuumba Singers.

“50 Years of Lifting Every Voice,” The Crismon, Oct. 2019

Disclaimer: While we appreciate this article as a representation of our space and an important moment in our history, we condemn the Crimson’s irresponsible actions in reporting on the ICE protests. We stand with our undocumented peers and with Harvard’s Act on a Dream student organization.
