The Black Archives had the honor of joining colleagues from across the country at the recent Association of African American Museums Conference in Philadelphia, hosted by the African American Museum in Philadelphia.

From our session “Harnessing Artificial Intelligence to Preserve Black Legacies in the Digital Era” to “Rooted in Place, Rising in Purpose: Transforming Communities Through Preservation and Programming”—presented in partnership with the Louis Armstrong House Museum—these conversations reaffirmed what we know to be true. When we protect Black historic spaces, invest in visionary programming, and thoughtfully embrace new technologies, we are not just preserving the past — we are building infrastructures of hope for the future.

Thank you to the hardworking team at @blackmuseums, our phenomenal hosts @aampmuseum, our partners at @louisarmstronghouse, and everyone who showed up, engaged, and shared space with us.

Our team returns to Miami reaffirmed, reinvigorated, and ready to get into the important work still to be done. ✨🖤✨
