Stages of Freedom&nbsp;is thrilled to present&nbsp;"A Concert for Freedom,"&nbsp;a carefully curated cultural experience blending music, spoken-word, and historical&nbsp;texts. This&nbsp;free&nbsp;public event takes place on Sunday, October 25, 2026, at 4:00 PM at&nbsp;the historic First Baptist Church in America, located at 75 North Main Street in Providence, Rhode&nbsp;Island.

Serving as the grand finale and closing event of the landmark&nbsp;RI250 Celebration, "A Concert for&nbsp;Freedom" dives deep into profound themes of enslavement, resistance, emancipation, liberation, and&nbsp;the universal human desire for self-determination. The performance shines a spotlight on Rhode Island’s central role in the transatlantic slave trade, while honoring&nbsp;the brave African American men who fought in the Revolutionary War as a pathway to&nbsp;securing their own freedom.
