An overview of Woodson Center's 1776 Unites campaign in the first year, and our key achievements in our inaugural year, 2020!

We launched in February 2020 as a Black-led assembly of scholars and activists who sought to challenge those who would paint our country as irredeemably and forever tainted by the stain of racism and slavery -- and offer a more positive vision that draws on the historical examples of Black Americans who have embraced American ideals to thrive, instead.

We have accomplished much in our first year:

Raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Piney Woods School, one of the few Black boarding schools left in America, which is devoted to American excellence and produces top-level graduates; this was equivalent to dozens of scholarships for needs students
Provided hundreds of "mini-grants" to innovative, grassroots organizations across the country -- to kickstart and invest in the leaders who are working to solve problems in our communities
Produced our #1776Educates curriculum, which has reached tens of thousands of students in classrooms and home-schools with patriotic, historical and accurate stories of Black American achievement
Reached millions with our proactive, patriotic message of hope, achievement, and results for low-income Americans
Began collaborating with law enforcement and communities to share findings of the Woodson Center's past violence-free zone achievements, and bring together thinkers to solve the growing violence issues in our nation's urban cores.

As Bob Woodson says, "People are motivated to improve their lives when they're shown victories that are possible, not being constantly reminded of injuries to be avoided." This is what the 1776 Unites campaign is all about!
