:: National Coalition of 100 Black Women Memphis Chapter ::

NCBW is an outgrowth of dedicated African American women in New York City. These women persistently worked to address the problems that affected their families, their communities, and themselves, and they aggressively began to reach out to other Black women and to mobilize their emerging strength into a visible and influential force. In 1971 an organization developed from these efforts that was called the Coalition of 100 Black Women.

No longer can Black women operate on the basis of reacting to crises and depending on crash programs to solve them. They know, as they have in the past, that they must understand and direct present trends and become aware of the new economic and social realities that are emerging. Seeking empowerment as a distinct group, they need to analyze their attitudes about power and understand both the traditional and unconventional routes to power. . . .
