Through community engagement and educational initiatives, D.A.S. is committed to helping individuals reconnect with their roots and build equitable, sustainable communities. Our efforts have fostered a sense of belonging and identity among descendants, empowering them to thrive.

The Descendants of American Slaves organization was established to fill the void left by the historical neglect of our ancestors’ experiences. By addressing issues of identity and culture, we’ve created a platform that promotes healing and engagement within the descendant community since our founding.
Over the years, D.A.S. has spearheaded various initiatives, empowering numerous individuals to rediscover their heritage and engage in collective growth. Our commitment to rewriting history and restoring cultural identity has made significant strides in uniting and uplifting our community.
