Bank of America is proud to sponsor The African Americans: Many Rivers to Cross with Henry Louis Gates, Jr. on PBS. We share Professor Gates’ belief that we must understand and connect with our country’s unique past as we work to create a better future.

In addition to the Many Rivers experience, Bank of America has developed a virtual exhibit, featuring our collection of notable African American photography. The exhibit is a great example of how the arts help us celebrate and preserve the past – from everyday moments to historic milestones.
