Are you pulling up to Umoja Fest this weekend in the CD? In anticipation, we’re throwing it back to Umoja Fest 2024 when Doug E. Fresh was in the house and the community energy encapsulated decades of heritage and unyielding resilience in the heart of Seattle.

Umoja Fest is a sacred homecoming where the echoes of the past meet the aspirations of the future, anchoring the community in a sense of belonging. Through the rhythmic pulse of music and the showcase of Black-owned ingenuity, the festival reclaims space and voice, transforming Seattle’s Judkins Park into a sanctuary of collective pride and historical significance.
