And Still We Rise

2019: America will reach a quadricentennial, the 400-year anniversary of the first arrival of Africans at Jamestown in 1619. Let that anniversary be marked by the telling of stories that recognize and celebrate the perseverance and triumph of the African American people. Let the stories inspire the world to take courageous steps for freedom today and for generations to come.
