Our Purpose
The DeKalb County African American Culture Alliance exists to serve as a pillar of unity, education, and cultural preservation within the African American community. Our purpose is to provide a platform where history, heritage, and progress intersect, fostering an environment where individuals can connect, learn, and grow together. Through curated events, storytelling, and cultural programming, we seek to honor the legacy of those who came before us while equipping future generations with the knowledge, resources, and inspiration to continue shaping a thriving and empowered community.
Beyond celebration, our purpose is to actively contribute to the advancement of African Americans in DeKalb County by promoting economic empowerment, social advocacy, and historical awareness. By creating spaces for dialogue, collaboration, and mentorship, we aim to bridge generational gaps and instill a deep sense of pride in our collective achievements. Our efforts are rooted in the belief that when a community understands its history and embraces its cultural identity, it becomes stronger, more resilient, and better positioned to create a lasting impact.
