On June 15, 2024 KCSM Radio Station Manager Dr. Robert A. Franklin joined KCSM On-Air Host Leslie Stoval at the Tiburon Juneteenth Freedom Celebration. It was a great afternoon with Harold Jones, regarded as the finest drummer in the world and his 18-piece big band The Bossmen kicking off the festivities.

Former Vice Mayor Noah Griffin read poetry with noted poet, activist, educator, orator and consultant Amber Allen-Pierson.

There were games and face-painting for the kids, Swahili Spot providing Tanzanian food along with downtown Tiburon restaurants such as Sam's, Bungalow Kitchen, Malibu Farms, Waypoint Pizza, Servino, Salt & Pepper, Caviar Co and an Ethiopian coffee ceremony.

We hope you will consider participating in this event next year!
