About BlackPeopleData

Preserve. Connect. Empower.

BlackPeopleData exists to ensure that the economic, cultural, and historical stories of the African Diaspora are preserved, studied, and leveraged to drive equity and opportunity. We believe data is more than numbers — it’s the living record of a people’s resilience, innovation, and contribution to the world.

Our mission is grounded in a simple truth: when communities own their narratives, they own their future. We curate and protect archives that span finance, health, sports, creativity, activism, and more — ensuring these records are accessible to scholars, leaders, and everyday citizens who want to build informed, empowered futures.

The ArchiveSoul Advantage

To deepen engagement, we’ve integrated ArchiveSoul, our AI-powered conversational guide. ArchiveSoul helps visitors:

Our First Principles

Our work is guided by the belief that:

  • Data is the soil that nourishes generational progress.

  • Cultural preservation is an investment, not charity.

  • Equity requires both historical awareness and modern tools.

  • Stories — whether told through numbers or narratives — shape collective destiny.
