The Black Land Loss Narrative Archive will form an invaluable resource for scholars, authors, historians, educators, storytellers, policymakers, and change agents who wrestle with issues of restitution, reparations, racial inequity in home ownership, and the racial wealth gap.
Through documenting stories of Black land loss, the archive will help to demonstrate the magnitude of what Black families have lost and will contribute to national dialogue to encourage paths to restitution, rebuilding, and healing.
