New to the festival this year will be a partnership with My Block My Hood My City, an organization founded and directed by Jahmal Cole. With this new partnership, we seek to prioritize and enhance youth belonging and empowerment. My Block My Hood My City will be sponsoring the youth and family area and will bring their vast expertise working with youth to the forefront. Included in this endeavor will be a 3 on 3 basketball tournament, as we collaborate, to draw attention to #savestreetball, a campaign by My Block My Hood My City to ensure that communities throughout Chicagoland have updated, outdoor basketball courts for our youth and families to utilize.
