Earlier this year, as we mark 65 years since The New Orleans Four (Gail Etienne, Ruby Bridges, Leona Tate, Tessie Prevost) who bravely desegregated our schools, the Department of Justice moved to end federal desegregation orders in Louisiana.

​

This is a deliberate effort to unwind the progress so many fought and sacrificed for. We cannot let them erase or diminish this legacy.

​

Then and now, progress depends on the people. We must answer this moment with the same urgency and determination as the Freedom Fighters of the Civil Rights Movement. 

​

Their legacy is our responsibility. We are calling on every person who believes in equality to join this vital movement.

​

Here is how you can take immediate action!

​

• Sign the Petition: Add your name to demand that our history is honored and our progress defended.

​

• Donate to the Movement: A gift of $6.50—for 65 years—is a powerful act of solidarity that fuels this commemoration.

​

• Participate in the Parade: March with us to celebrate our heroes and show our collective strength and unity. (Register here)

​

This is a call to come together to honor our past and protect our future.
