The 5th annual Bettye Davis African American Summit will take place on Saturday, February 10th from 9 AM to 5 PM at the Bettye Davis East Anchorage High School. The theme is “Marching Until Equity, Equality and Justice is Won!”

The summit provides a forum for the Black community to educate policy makers and the public about the issues facing BIPOC (Black Indigenous People of Color) communities and the solutions we want to see. The Summit addresses critical issues of public policy in the areas of economics, justice, education, and health. It is the principal gathering place, idea generator, and voice for the Black community in Alaska. This year will incorporate “REP,” Registration, Education and Participation” – ABC’s voting platform to encourage voting in marginalized communities.
