Data is the New Oil
Welcome to BlackPeopleData, where preserving, honoring, and leveraging Black historical, cultural, and economic data is our path to empowerment. Every archive we protect strengthens the roots of our community and fuels a future built on truth, resilience, and innovation. Explore our collections, use our tools, and join us in shaping projects that honor the past while building the next generation’s foundation.
In a world where data drives decisions, we are responsible for harnessing its power for social good. By promoting ethical AI practices—rooted in transparency, accountability, and inclusivity—we can ignite progress, dismantle systemic barriers, and uplift marginalized communities. These collaborative efforts are not just about technology; they’re about creating a future where every voice is heard, every story matters, and every community thrives.
Information is a transformative force in this digital age, capable of reshaping narratives and driving meaningful change. When data meets storytelling, it weaves a vibrant tale that captures the essence of resilience, triumph, and determination—qualities that have long defined communities of color. By amplifying these stories, we honor their legacy and empower individuals to claim their rightful place in a world where access to top-tier information and technology is a necessity, not a privilege.
Owning Our Data. Owning Our Future.
BlackPeopleData is a living archive of the African Diaspora’s economic, cultural, and historical contributions. Our mission is simple: preserve our stories, protect our data, and turn insight into equity.
We believe data is not just information — it’s the foundation for generational progress. By connecting history, innovation, and lived experience, we empower communities to shape their own economic futures.
How We Work
Preserve: Safeguarding historical and cultural records that too often go undocumented.
Connect: Linking data to real-world opportunities for education, business, and policy.
Empower: Turning information into strategies for equity and growth.
