Grant Overview

Delaware's African American history is characterized by a rich and complex narrative, with significant contributions to the state's cultural and economic development. However, this history is often overlooked or underrepresented in public knowledge and education. According to a recent survey, 70% of Delaware residents reported a lack of knowledge about the state's African American history. The funding available through this grant will help address this gap by supporting the creation of a digital archive featuring Delaware's African American history. Target Outcomes in Delaware: The grant will support the development of a digital archive that curates artifacts and oral histories, providing a comprehensive and accessible resource for education and community engagement. By collaborating with local historians and community members, the initiative will promote a deeper understanding of Delaware's African American history and its significance to the state's cultural heritage. Delaware's Digital Infrastructure: The state's digital infrastructure is characterized by a high level of broadband access, making a digital archive a particularly effective approach to promoting historical understanding. Unlike neighboring states, Delaware's small size and centralized population make it an ideal location for a statewide digital archive. Who Will Benefit in Delaware? Schools, community organizations, and individuals will benefit from this funding, particularly those in low-income neighborhoods who may lack access to historical resources. By providing a digital archive, this funding will promote digital literacy alongside historical understanding. How the Digital Archive Will Be Developed: The digital archive will be developed in collaboration with local historians and community members, ensuring that the content is accurate and representative of Delaware's African American history. The archive will be designed to be accessible and user-friendly, with features such as search functionality and educational resources.
