Saving Black History, One Story at a Time

The Miami Center for Racial Justice was established as a non-profit organization in 2020 following the murder of George Floyd. The purpose of the Center is to tell and preserve the true black history of Florida, especially those stories that are difficult to hear. The Center, a 501c3 qualified organization, aims to educate young Floridians, especially so that their voices will carry those stories forward to future generations. In order to save difficult stories, the Center has organized Teach the Truth tours which take participants to sites in Florida where racial violence had occurred. The Center covers the costs of bus transportation and lodging for the overnight tours. We have also developed black history lesson plans for use by the Miami-Dade County Public School System, and have been advocates for abandoned black cemeteries. The Center is also involved in efforts to resist book banning in Florida schools and is working to establish a historic park in Rosewood.
