The Black Cemetery Network is a collaboration between black cemetery site advocates from across the country ready to connect with you, your community, or organization.
Building inclusive futures, together.
The African American Burial Ground & Remembering Project (AABGP) is a collaboration between the University of South Florida and local artists working to address black cemetery erasures in the Tampa Bay area. Our network has partnered with the AABGP team to coordinate research and advocacy efforts which share the same goal: to preserve black cemeteries by telling their stories
