About the event
🚴🏾♂️ History in Motion.
Join us for a transformational Slow Roll through South Minneapolis, honoring the historic Black churches that have shaped social justice, Black liberation, and economic resilience.
This is more than a ride — it’s a community-powered journey through sacred spaces where faith met action. Experience oral histories, art, and collective reflection as we pay tribute to the spiritual and cultural institutions that built a movement.
Hear oral histories, spoken word, and community reflections at each stop — led by elders, artists, and movement leaders. Learn how these congregations fueled housing cooperatives, credit unions, civil rights campaigns, and youth empowerment. Ride through a timeline of Black South Minneapolis, told through the churches that shaped it.
