Celebrating America 250: We, Too, Are America

About this event


As we mark America's 250th anniversary, we are invited to ask not only what this nation has become, but whose stories have shaped it. For AAHGS, this milestone is both a commemoration and a call to action.

Register for this celebration to bring our history to the forefront of our nations' anniversary.

Our theme echoes the voice of Langston Hughes and affirms a fundamental truth: African Americans have always been integral to America. Our ancestors built its economy, shaped its institutions, enriched its culture, defended its freedoms, and challenged the nation to live up to its ideals. Yet their experiences have too often been overlooked or omitted.

America 250 is a mandate to recover what was lost. Through genealogy, research, education, and preservation, we restore names, reconnect families, and place them where they belong: at the center of the American story. Every record uncovered and story shared deepens our understanding of who we are as a nation.
