The National Urban League

The National Urban League was founded in 1910 to help African Americans arriving in northern cities from the southeast. Today, the National Urban League continues to represent African Americans with branches in 34 States and the District of Columbia. At a recent national convention, President Hugh B. Price offered a plan to bridge the economic gap between poor Americans of color and the rest of the nation.
