Reinforces African Proverb – Ubuntu – I Am Because We Are.

 

Historically, African Americans and underserved urban communities have fought to overcome policies of discrimination, economic and social injustices. Since 1910, the National Urban League has been a force for progress and empowerment. As one of 90 affiliates across the country, the Urban League collectively delivers services and programs to nearly two million individuals in 300 communities each year.

Although we have made progress, vast disparities remain around income, employment and education opportunities, quality housing, and basic healthcare. These disparities create a socioeconomic divide that we believe can change through empowering communities.
