Anti Commerciële Actie Beweging (A.C.A.B.)

1/2
The holidays were never just about celebration for Black people.
They were about survival, protection, and creating warmth in cold conditions.
Joy didn’t erase oppression, it interrupted it.
And that legacy lives on.
'For black plp 100-50 yrs ago, Christmas was complicated. Joy existed, but so did fear. In the U.S., the holiday season unfolded under Jim Crow, lynching, and segregation. In Africa and the Caribbean, it arrived under colonial rule. Celebration had boundaries.'

Farming, food security, and farm labor are just part of the list of issues addressed by UVA programs. The impact is huge for Charlottesville, but also for Virginia and the nation.
