Federation of Civic Leagues
Amistad Research Center
New Orleans, United States
Other wards throughout the city followed in the Seventh Ward League's footsteps and established their own civic organizations. These distinct ward leagues formed the Federation of Civic Leagues in 1929 to organize around and discuss issues particular to their ward. They accomplished securing schools for African American communities and they engaged in social justice activities, which included heavy support for the city chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).
