your trying to tell us that they couldn't get some type of corporate or city support!? that's disgraceful, there are more than enough corporations that should be helping out such a unique festival that showcases many different aspects of African culture. hopefully next year it will return with much lower ticket prices to draw more people. interestingly the city came up money for the illegals yet not a penny for a citizens festival...shows you how much they respect our fellow citizens

Yea they don’t have the funds to host it. Over the years it has lost sponsorships etc.
