PITTSFIELD — The NAACP Berkshire County Branch recently hosted a community discussion on the 10 Million Names Project, a national initiative aimed at preserving and sharing the stories of Black Americans whose contributions have too often been overlooked. The event provided historical context, personal reflection, and opportunities for local engagement with the project’s mission.

Residents and attendees are encouraged to learn more about the 10 Million Names Project, explore Black history in Berkshire County, and participate in efforts to document and honor the legacy of Black lives and stories in the region.
