Despite soaring temperatures, neighbors gathered on Saturday to celebrate Juneteenth and mark the first anniversary of the Anarcha Center’s opening in North Omaha.
I Be Black Girl (IBBG) hosted its annual Block Party, an event honoring the Anarcha Center—a dedicated space focused on serving, educating, and empowering Black women, girls, and femmes across Nebraska.
