Celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture.
Summary
H.Res. 766 is a non-binding resolution introduced by Representative Adriano Espaillat (D-NY) to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture. As a non-binding resolution, this measure does not have the force of law and does not require presidential signature. Instead, it serves as a formal expression of recognition and celebration by the House of Representatives.
The Schomburg Center, located in Harlem, New York, is a major research institution dedicated to preserving and providing access to materials documenting the history and culture of people of African descent. The resolution honors the center's century-long contributions to scholarship, education, and cultural preservation. Currently, the resolution has been referred to committee and is under consideration but has not yet been voted on by the full House. If passed, it would represent congressional recognition of the institution's historical significance and ongoing work.
