    Sobre Nós

    We believe that the compelling true stories of hundreds of Black women, children, and men will serve to open the hearts and minds of those unfamiliar with this crucially important, but still little known chapter in American history to move them towards not only understanding those plaintiffs, but also honoring their bravery.
