Immerse yourself in the overlooked historical contributions of Black workers to improve labor conditions and create lasting movements in New Orleans. Built on years of community-university research collaboration, this mobile exhibit is only the beginning.
Join us as we uncover the untold stories of commitment and unity among Black workers in New Orleans. From the struggles in the past to the challenges in the present, learn the power of collective action and engage with the enduring spirit of solidarity.
Experience the triumphs and tribulations of those who dared to stand up, speak out, and fight for justice in the face of adversity.
You Are Not Alone - because together, we stand stronger.
