400 Years Coalition

The 400 year history of African Americans is full of tragedies that have shaped the black experience in America and should be remembered as moral catastrophes. African Americans have contributed to the economic, academic, social culture and moral well-being of this nation. The 400 Years Coalition will tell this story throughout 2019. We will be hav... ing events every week in 2019 commemorating our struggle. As we contemplate the challenges and injustices that African Americans still face, we remember the tragic way in which African American history began and draw inspiration from the heroes and trailblazers who fought under our countrys principle that all people are created equal. These heroes and trailblazers, along with millions of African Americans who have worked, created, invented, discovered, lived and died over the past 400 years, have molded our national character such that the United States would be unrecognizable without our presence. #400YearsRead More
