Your Gift Matters
Black history matters—it always has. But in today’s climate of attacks, erasure, and book-banning, protecting Black history is more vital than ever. You have the power to help us ensure our 10,000 pages of content continue to grow, informing and inspiring people worldwide. As an independent 501(c)3 nonprofit, we receive no financial support from universities, foundations, or government agencies. This means your contribution, in any amount, is an incredible gift that makes a difference.
You have a role to play in resisting the attempted erasure of Black history. Invest in BlackPast.org. No gift is too small and no dream is too big when it comes to investing in Black history. By supporting BlackPast.org, you are helping to preserve history for generations to come.
