ABOUT THE EVENT
The National Coalition on Black Civic Participation (NCBCP) and Clark Atlanta University (CAU) lfficially launched the NCBCP Thomas W. Dortch, Jr. Institute For Leadership, Civic Engagement, Economic Empowerment & Social Justice and hosted the Inaugural NCBCP Southern Organizing Leadership Convening. The convening brought together an inter-generational and diverse group of Black leaders and allies for two-days focused on organizing, sharing strategies, sharing research, building coalitions and collaborating on long term political, economic and social justice solutions for Black America, especially in The South.
In light of the systemic and unrelenting tsunami of attacks against our rights, freedoms and power including--- civil rights, voting rights, Black political power, reproductive rights & justice, workers’ rights to organize, LGBTQ+ rights, bans against black history being taught in our public schools, attacks against historically black colleges & universities and more—the convening focused on short term collaboration and organizing opportunities to gear up for the 2024 presidential election cycle.

Melanie L. Campbell
