East Rockaway for Racial Justice is a multiracial coalition established in 2020 by East Rockaway residents committed to advancing racial justice in our community. One of our short-term goals is to become a 501c non-profit organization so we can continue hosting events and create an annual scholarship award for an East Rockaway high school senior.
A one-day celebration of the wonderful variety of food East Rockaway and its neighbors have to offer. It will be a brilliant way to come together and experience our multicultural community. This will be the first event of its kind in East Rockaway dedicated to championing, supporting, and promoting multiculturalism with the best local food and music available.
We are grateful to our co-hosts, Indivisible Nassau County – an advocacy group on Long Island, and Bethany Congregational Church for helping us make this event possible.
SHADES OF LONG ISLAND is a media outlet dedicated to elevating the consciousness of Long Island through informative reporting and sharing the news, stories and events revolving people of color in our region.
