What is SDUSMP?
Sons and Daughters of the United States Middle Passage (SDUSMP) is a lineage society that is a non-profit, charitable 501(c)3 organization dedicated to the memory, education, and historic preservation of the artifacts and landmarks of slavery in the United States and its economic, psychological, and cultural impact on today’s society.
Our mission is to connect descendants of the Forced American Heroes with their ancestors through genealogical research, while educating the nation and the world about the vital role Africans forcibly brought to the United States and their descendants played in building our nation. We strive to honor their contributions and sacrifices by collecting, protecting, and preserving historical materials that document the history of slavery, as well as identifying and commemorating the places where our ancestors lived, labored, and sacrificed. Through these efforts, we seek to cherish and strengthen the family ties among members of the SDUSMP while ensuring that the stories and legacies of our ancestors are preserved for future generations.
Join us in honoring our ancestors, preserving their history, and strengthening our community.
