It’s been over a month since we launched our crowdfunding campaign to save this black historic site. It hasn’t been easy, but it has been fulfilling and humbling to see the outpouring of support that we’ve received:
Approximately $250,000 in 8 days from over 4,000 donors from 7 countries!
It’s incredible.
To be honest, this doesn’t solve our problems, but it gives us room to breathe and plan for how to come out of this situation as a stronger, more stable institution. That’s the next thing we have to work on. More to come.
In the meantime, enjoy the video! Shout outs to TheRoot.com, especially producer and editor Peter Rickards and cinematographer Santiago Garcia for the incredible video
