FEATURED STOPS INCLUDE
WHERE CHAMPIONS WERE FORGED
We journey to a sanctuary of world-class preparation and a landmark of Black athletic resilience:
5th Street Gym.
This is the actual site where "The Greatest" prepared for his most significant impact.
ARTISTIC RESISTANCE
One woman’s refusal to perform for a segregated audience changed the narrative of the Beach forever.
We honor the profound impact of Josephine Baker, who used her global platform to demand the first integrated performance on Miami Beach.
PUSHING THE CULTURE FORWARD
Conclude your journey at Casa Matilda, a high-end Black-owned steakhouse on Miami Beach. This is a sanctuary of refined luxury where we will break bread over a curated menu, meeting the founders who are driving the culture forward today.
Brought to you by:
An ABFF 30th anniversary sanctioned event
While the world descends on Miami Beach for the celebration of the screen, we invite you to step into the unwritten chapters that made this moment possible. This tour is brought to you by The Miami Beach Black Affairs Advisory Board and is a curated journey through the resilient soul of the Beach.
We go beyond the neon lights to the sacred training grounds of champions, the stages of artistic resistance, and the high-end storefronts of modern visionaries. Join us to honor the rebellion, the resistance, and the relentless Black excellence that paved the way for the red carpets.
