Sema Hadithi African American Heritage and Culture

Sema Hadithi African American Heritage and Culture Foundation strives to “tell the story” of African-ancestored history, heritage, and culture by researching, preserving, and disseminating information throughout the community.

The phrase “Sema Hadithi” means to “tell the story”.

By sharing the story of African ancestral families we help to tell the whole story of Utah.

Our primary goals are to promote scholarly research, provide resources for historical studies, and create a network of persons with similar interests. We seek to assist interested parties to document Black history in Utah and the Mountain West. We wish to ensure that the community receives this important historical information.
