In the fall of 1982, college students who could not afford to spend the upcoming spring break at home in the DMV planned a small picnic for other students who would be stuck at the Atlanta University Center. Hulu released “Freaknik: The Wildest Party Never Told,” to detail the journey of Freaknik with highlights of the D.C. Metro Club’s Origin Story and to highlight how this picnic became the most popular spring break party destination for HBCU students from across the nation. Watch on Hulu beginning March 21, 2024.
