Greetings Members and Guests!

 

It is with deep gratitude and immense pride that I address you today. Standing shoulder to shoulder with you on this magnificent journey is not just a privilege—it is an honor that resonates through the halls of our shared history and echoes into the future we are building together.

 

The National Association of Black Military Women, Brooklyn Chapter, is one of thirteen chapters nationwide. The NABMW Brooklyn Chapter was founded in 2017.

 

We honor the extraordinary legacy of the brave trailblazers who founded the National Association of Black Military Women. In 1976, in Hampton, Virginia, twenty-one visionary women ignited a powerful mission: "To Tell Her Story." Through their determination, they ensure that the service, sacrifice, and enduring legacy of Black women veterans are preserved and heralded as vital threads in the rich tapestry of our military history.

 

Today, the NABMW is an association of women throughout the country who are veterans or current members of the United States Armed Forces, standing as a testament to resilience and advocacy —a vital voice championing inclusion, support, and progress for all veterans. Your continued efforts underscore the strength and unity that Black women bring to the forefront, ensuring that their invaluable contributions, often overlooked, are rightfully celebrated.

 

As Veterans and Associate Members, you epitomize what it means to build roads of unity and communities of strength for future generations. In walking, fellowshipping, and growing together, we are reminded that veterans are indeed crafted for unity and progress.

 

"To Tell Her Story" is not just a mission—it is a movement. It is our collective pledge to uphold and share these stories of courage and commitment, foster a spirit of camaraderie, inspire our youth to achieve academic excellence, and teach, embrace, and empower those who will follow in our footsteps.

 

Together, we are not only making history; we are ensuring it is remembered and revered. With unwavering resolve, we stride forward, empowered by our past and focused on a brighter, unified future.

 

As you navigate through our website, please view our mission, senior officers, history, activities, and programs.

 

Thank you for being the pillars of strength and beacons of hope that our nation needs. Let us continue to uplift one another and our communities, for through our unity, we possess unbounded strength and power.  

 

With most profound respect and admiration,

​

Dr. Annie L. Suggs, CSM (R)

President,  

NABMW Brooklyn Chapter
