ArtsBoston is a nonprofit dedicated to supporting the arts.
The Trotter Institute was founded at the University of Massachusetts Boston in 1984 to address the concerns of Black communities in Boston and Massachusetts through research, technical assistance, and public service. It is named after the twentieth century social justice advocate William Monroe Trotter founder of the Black newspaper the Boston Guardian. Through a research nexus of social advocacy, digital humanities, and community engagement, the Trotter seeks to map and archive Black Boston’s political, cultural, and socio-economic experiences.
