Dear Fordham Community,

Join us for a concert at the Lincoln Center campus to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the end of apartheid in South Africa and the formation of a democratic government. In this celebration, we send an important reminder to the world about the importance of freedom and democracy, given the political, human, and civil rights challenges we face today.

Musical guest Bongi Duma and his band will feature songs from artists who played a role in spreading the message of freedom and democracy during apartheid. A post-performance panel discussion and Q&A with the South African performers and Zenande Booi, Executive Director at the Center on Race, Law and Justice, will follow the concert.

Monday, March 18, 2024
6 p.m. - 8 p.m.
