The Trolls and Elves learned to live together in peace generations ago, far, far away on the planet of Venus. When that peace started to break down and there were signs of turmoil and separation, a small group of Elders and their followers decided to get away from it all by taking off on their own. Upon seeking a safe piece of land and environment to settle, they founded "The Village of Godcha". The Elders were elated to see everybody working together again, the Elves with their strong bodies and ability to put structures together speedily, and Trolls with their brilliant minds and ability to quickly solve any problem. When their perfect little world began to erode the Elders came together in prayer, deciding to have faith and trust that things will be different this time around and their world will get better. The Elders could see the light. Could that light be shining on two among them who are rejected and treated as outcasts, Elf Charrte, pronounced Chair-tee, and Mon Troll???

2nd Annual Black History Month Festival 2022

Thank You Sponsors and Donors!

This event could not be possible without your support!

Despite its forerunner, Negro History Week, originating all the way back in 1926, Black History Month as we know it today didn’t become nationally recognized until the 1970s. Black students and educators at Kent State first celebrated Black History Month in January and February of 1970. Other educational institutions started following suit, and for the United States’ bicentennial, President Gerald Ford recognized Black History Month, as has every president since.

Freedom is Love

(Tribute to the late Emmit Till, Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd...)

Freedom is Love

When my neighborhood is protected by cops instead of being violated by Cops

When I can walk in any neighborhood and NOT be shot

When I can own my Black Business at the same level of community support as my White Counterpart

When I can walk any streets without being treated like a criminal

When I can drive on any highway and not be followed for suspicion of a crime

When I can marry whom I want and be accepted into society as normal

When I can enter this country and achieve my goal of success instead of living in fear of being deported When I can work on any job and not be treated like I can only be the maid

When I can take my maid work to the level of being a successful Black

Business with the same respect as a White Business owner

When my Black kids can play with Brown and White kids without hearing the word N___ er

When every movie depicting a community or any part of America shows the diverse country we are

When segregation in schools and churches, all over America, is wiped out

When everyone treats me with the respect that I deserve

When you can look at me and see my qualities instead of my Color

When I can live out the constitution in, not the pursuit of, but the

achievement of, a better life with liberty, justice and equality

When I can be seen in the Emergency Room before I pass out or die waiting

When fighting for my civil liberties is not an eternal, personal struggle

Then & Only Then Freedom IS Love!!!
