Acknowledge the Greatness in the Alabama Black Belt!

We’d like to introduce our newest campaign to ‘Acknowledge the Greatness‘, highlighting the strength and beauty that comes from the Alabama Black Belt.

It’s crucial that we tell our own story – we own the space we occupy, and we will make sure the world knows about the greatness that exists in the Alabama Black Belt.
