250 Years In The Making: OUR Semiquincentennial

On July 4, 2026 something phenomenal will occur in our country, and every American is an important part of it. On that day, the United States of America will commemorate its 250th anniversary of the signing of the declaration of

independence, the Semiquincentennial.


The eyes of the world are once again strongly focused on this nation. Interest in America's history is at an all-time high. Thoroughly intertwined in the making of this country are the stories of African-Americans who were brought to this land involuntarily and who in some ways have touched every aspect of its development.

 

Recent polls and surveys confirm the most pronounced interest in African-American culture since 1977, when Alex Haley’s classic “Roots,” and the T.V. mini-series it spawned, created a wave of heighten awareness about African

American history and all things related, i.e. music, food, traditions, etc.

.

While attempts are being made to suppress, distort, and even totally erase African American history, every state and many cities across the country are proudly sharing with the world the African-American “cultural treasures” that

are a part of their destinations’ tourism appeal.

Black America 250 ™ is an indispensable digital Travel GUIDE and RESOURCE for domestic and international, multicultural, multi-generational travelers that invites them to visit places many have always dreamed of, places some have never dreamed of, places most love to go and places few have ever gone.


It allows them to:

 

  • HEAR the authentic sounds of Jazz, Motown & Gospel
  • WALK in the footsteps of a Nobel Prize winning KING
  • RELIVE the extraordinary life of an iconic world champion
  • FOLLOW the paths of enslaved people to freedom
  • MARVEL at the works, the lives, the triumphs and the accomplishments
    of African American Scientists, Educators, Inventors, Soldiers, Artists, 
    Writers, and “Everyday Folks


 Be prepared to be educated, to be inspired, to develop a greater sense of appreciation for the diverse cultures that make us the UNITED States of America and to further embrace humanity's "global connectivity."


Above all, pack your spirit of adventure, your curiosity, your appetite for delicious food and dynamic

entertainment. Step back into some amazing historic moments in time. Be enlightened, be encouraged,

be enriched.
