WADE IN THE WATER: A JOURNEY INTO BACK SURFING & AQUATIC CULTURE:
Embark on an extraordinary voyage through the rich and often overlooked tales of Black surfers across centuries and continents. Prepare to be captivated by the grand streaming premiere of our acclaimed documentary, slated for this summer. From the shores of Africa to the beaches of America, dive deep into a millennium of Black surfing heritage.

Join us in celebrating our vibrant community and collaborating with esteemed partners to chart a course towards greater inclusivity and innovation in outdoor spaces. Immerse yourself in the film, participate in thought-provoking discussions, and spark ideas that will shape the future of aquatic culture.

Director David Mesfin will lead engaging conversations exploring topics such as competitive surfing, the role of non-profit surf organizations, the evolution of BIPOC surfing, the transformative power of surf therapy, and the potential for cities like Hermosa Beach to foster truly inclusive communities.
