| Statement of Purpose: | Theme: Honoring Our Past … Embracing Our Future. Mission: To celebrate the historical and cultural richness, and contributions, of people of African descent and their impact on the global community. Sistrunk Historical Festival is a cultural organization that celebrates the accomplishments of people of African descent. The organization is named in honor of Dr. James Sistrunk, one of the first African-American physicians in Broward County, and a trailblazer in the community.
