NC BLACK Summit

With a packed house and another sold-out event, the energy and engagement reminded us why the annual NC Black Summit continues to be a cornerstone for collective action in North Carolina. From powerful keynotes by Pastor James Gailliard, LaTosha Brown, and Rep. John C. King to critical conversations on healthcare, education, economic justice, diversity, equity and inclusion, and civic engagement, this gathering brought together Black elected officials, policy advocates, and community leaders all working toward a more just and equitable North Carolina.

A summit like no other, this year’s convening was a call to action, a reminder to stay grounded in purpose and continue navigating today’s challenges with clarity, courage, and collaboration. Thank you for walking with us on this journey. Let’s keep charting the course—together.
