Focused on the stories of African Americans and people of color, as found in the records of the National Archives.
On October 6, the National Archives Foundation launched its Fund for Rights & Justice which will help provide resources for research, public programs, exhibitions and educational materials focused on the stories of African Americans and people of color, as found in the records of the National Archives.
The National Archives is full of records that attempt to tell the story of race in America. At our fundraiser to launch the fund, we highlighted some of the more unique and important documents.
Featured Records
Records of Rights
In this permanent exhibition in the David M. Rubenstein Gallery at National Archives in Washington, D.C., Records of Rights explores how generations of Americans sought to fulfill the promise of the founding documents.
Amending America
In 2016, in celebration of the 225th anniversary of the ratification of the Bill of Rights, the National Archives hosted a series of national conversations across the country to explore the continuing and often complicated issues of rights of our modern era.
