Earlier this month, The Historic New Orleans Collection (THNOC) was honored to host a special group from the National Urban League while they were in town for the organization’s 2023 Leadership Summit.
The national leaders explored our new exhibition, “Yet She Is Advancing”: New Orleans Women and the Right to Vote, 1878-1970 and discussed how the civil rights movement in New Orleans and across the country was supported by the Urban League’s efforts.
Thank you to everyone from the National Urban League who shared their time with us.
