Black Organizations

When the 13th amendment to the Constitution was ratified by the states, African Americans found themselves as free as their masters, though the fight for true equality continues to this day.
That fight for equality is supported largely by black organizations -- groups of African Americans joining together to make their struggle less painful. Black organizations like the NAACP (founded in 1910) and Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (founded in 1969) have influenced great changes in the landscape of America, ensuring their place in the history books.
