(re)Framing America

This initiative is led by youth. To protect the safety of minors in our program, we do not publicly share event locations or dates in advance. However, those interested in participating or supporting our work can sign up for updates by emailing daahcinfo@gmail.com where details will be provided securely. We encourage you to also look for updates on our Facebook page.

Join Project DREAMS for a powerful, living art experience where high school students become the exhibit. In (re)Framing America, students will step into picture frames and share personal stories, reflections, and perspectives on what it means to be American in today's world. Viewers are invited to engage, reflect, and reimagine identity, belonging, and the American experience.

We seek to expand, include and elevate African Americans' historic and present-day contributions through education and engagement. Our vision is to lead the Delaware community in understanding the African American experience.

DAAHC Council Chair, Tamika Vinson-Reid

Change requires us to acknowledge existing injustices and systemic racism. Progress requires a relentless pursuit from every one of us. We are not calling you out, instead, we’re calling you in – this work is collective and requires community.

Resolved to create change, the council was formed to address gaps through community-wide programs, events, and workshops.

Leveraging combined experience and expertise, DAAHC is well-positioned to partner with local municipalities, schools, nonprofit organizations, and businesses to improve culture, facilitate diversity, and rigorously evaluate progress and outcomes. In the wake of racial profiling and discrimination, and in recognition of a desire to feel equipped and prepared to respond to such incidents, DAAHC applauds community partners’ openness and willingness to learn processes and practices that will help create more inclusion and belonging in Delaware and beyond.
