An Event Celebrating Love, Faith, and Togetherness

Welcome to Iglesia Cristiana Getsemani's Summer of Love Flashback: The Black People's Free Store event. We are excited to invite you to join us in commemorating a remarkable moment in history. This event aims to promote unity, love, and support within the community, while also highlighting the enduring power of faith and belief.

Remembering the Summer of Love

The Summer of Love was a pivotal time in American history, particularly in San Francisco, California. It was a period of immense cultural transformation, as young people from all walks of life came together to celebrate peace, love, and freedom. Countercultural movements, such as the Civil Rights Movement and the Black Power Movement, were deeply intertwined during this era, bringing about significant societal change.

The Black People's Free Store

One of the notable aspects of the Summer of Love was the establishment of various "free stores." These stores served as a means to combat inequality and promote community support. Iglesia Cristiana Getsemani's Summer of Love Flashback: The Black People's Free Store pays homage to this important chapter in history by recreating the spirit of those free stores.

The Black People's Free Store will be a place where individuals can come together to donate and receive essential items such as food, clothing, and personal care products. It will be a safe space where people can connect and build strong relationships.
