History Matters
As a student in public education, you may be wondering, “Why do I only learn about European and American History in my classes? When are we going to study the achievements of Asia, Africa, and Latin America?” Well, UMCI strives to answer those questions, while also facilitating healthy dialogue between students about their interests in History. UMCI can also provide students with a historical education centered around their personal interests. We try to invite History students from your local college to provide panels and presentations on multi-cultural histories. Therefore, if you want to promote a particular topic in History for your community, UMCI would be the perfect club for you.

About
Unify My Community Incorporated (UMCI) is a non-profit organization that promotes a community where historical scholars can engage with themselves and with their fellow classmates. We care about promoting young scholars with a passion in history to engage in their personal interests. We also feel as though history is often overlooked in our education system, as well as in our communities and society in general. Therefore, we strive to educate young high schoolers in multi-cultural histories, ranging from Africana Studies and LatinX history to the Civil Rights Movement and the War on Terror.
