We do this in a number of ways to include the following: Preserving and developing the grounds/historical marker; Educate visitors about Malcolm X's Legacy; Activate leadership through civic engagement trainings and lectures; Celebrate Black Heritage through collaborative community programming; and Empower others thru Equity and advocacy for quality of life issues.
