Resident promotes Roswell Roots Festival as monthlong Black History Month celebration
A resident urged the community to attend the Roswell Roots Festival, describing it as "1 of the largest celebrations of Black History Month in the Southeast" and "an entire month dedicated to celebrating not only Black history as it happened in this country, but Black history as it affected and happened in this community."

The commenter said the festival is "an amazing homage to what has happened in the past and how that translates to the present," and invited "the entire community and people from around Roswell to come, experience, and be a part of everything that's happening here in Roswell for Roswell roots 20 25."

The remarks occurred during the meeting's public comment period and did not correspond to any formal agenda action. No motions, votes, or city directives resulted from the remarks. The statement emphasized community participation and local cultural recognition rather than policy or funding proposals.

The comment framed the Roswell Roots Festival as a monthlong program tied to Black History Month and positioned it as a cultural event for residents and visitors. The speaker did not provide details about specific dates, venues, sponsors, or costs for Roswell Roots 2025; those items were not specified in the transcript.
