We are the economic portal for the Africatown Region.

People are the heartbeat of Africatown. They are descendants, storytellers, business owners, community leaders, and so much more. They carry this place forward. The Dream Lab is in service to them.

By preserving and protecting Africatown’s rich history, from the stories passed down through generations to the very land that we reclaim, we affirm dignity, identity, and justice. We also foster business and trade that can change families and lives for generations to come.

When we celebrate Africatown’s legacy, we reject erasure. When we protect its lands, we demand accountability and environmental justice. When we invest in its people, we honor the resilience that has kept this community alive for more than 160 years.
