Advisory Board

The advisory board provides subject-matter guidance on editorial standards, HBCU research methodology, and educational program design. Advisory board members do not have editorial authority over published content.

Advisory board formation is in progress. We are recruiting historians specializing in Reconstruction and the Civil Rights era, active HBCU faculty and administrators, K-12 curriculum specialists, and experts in digital humanities and archival research.

Board members will be announced publicly when appointments are confirmed. If you are a credentialed historian or educator interested in advising this project, contact us: partnerships@black-history.com


Black History Educational Foundation

The nonprofit foundation that will operate the educational programs of Black-History.com is being formed and will be governed by a separate board of directors. Board membership will be disclosed on this page once the foundation is established.
