When hate crimes occur, they don’t just harm individuals; they leave scars and can affect families, communities and, at times, the entire nation.
📢 As #HateCrimesAwarenessMonth continues, commit to standing up, speaking out and refusing hate — however and whenever it occurs.

Browse through the pages of an original Negro Motorist #GreenBook from 1946. Just imagine how many people who found protection in these pages because of the Black businesses, schools, restaurants, and lodging recorded during travel.

On Independence Day, we reflect on what freedom truly means. Liberty has power only when it belongs to everyone. Let’s recommit to justice, truth, and a future where freedom is shared—not selective.

In late April, our Truth + Transformation team traveled from Atlanta to Sugar Land, TX with local historians and city leaders.
We learned how Fort Bend ISD is honoring the Sugar Land 95 and explored what it takes for communities to confront the legacy of forced labor together.

The Statue of Liberty once held broken chains. Not just a torch.
At @amerikahaus.de Kama Pierce shared the truth: Édouard de Laboulaye, designed her to honor the end of slavery.
That history was erased. We're just starting to reclaim it.
