Sacramento Area Black Caucus

Sacramento Area Black Caucus SABC was originally formed as an umbrella organization for Black organizations and individuals in the Sacramento Area. The init The first Chair was Rev. S. L. S.L.

Subsequently, early meetings were held at the Century Chapel Methodist Episcopal Church on 29th Ave. At those meetings the by-laws and articles of incorporation were produced. Fred Foote and Robert Tyler played key roles in bringing together these early documents. The organizational by-laws were adopted on April 23rd, 1972. Higgins. The Caucus changed from an umbrella organization into one more, specific, Black organization because members became disappointed with the necessity of waiting at least one month for every proposed action to enable each member organization to meet and consider Caucus recommendations. Once the Caucus became an independent organization. Other local organizations may come and go, but for 40 plus years the Sacramento Area Black Caucus has been a constant presence in and for Sacramento’s Black Population. SABC's Founders

Know their names.
Six Black immigrants become names the country is trying to forget – and names we refuse to let disappear.
Dr. Fatima Ameaka. Sister Leticia Ugboaja. Clean “Uncle Lou” Williams. Daphy Michel. Emmanuel Damas. Imam Fouad Saeedh Abdulkadir.
They were a scholar, nun, community elder, research scientist, restaurant owner, and faith leader.
They were taken from us by ICE, detention, and a system expanding its reach into Black and Brown communities.
Some died in custody. Some died after release. All of them were ours.
Swipe to read their names. Say them out loud. Share this post so that their names travel further than the headlines that tried to bury them.
Our humanity can’t depend on our immigration status.
