The American University Roosevelt Institution held its launch event on Saturday, February 25, 2006 in the University Club.


The AU Chapter's founding Administrative Board


    *    *    *   

  With February already designated as Black History Month, the AU Chapter Launch was an additional celebration of progress: past, present & future. It commemorated the bold combination of individual minds – like those of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Nelson Mandela – and the inspiration of the Civil Rights and Anti-Apartheid movements they created and led.

  These memorable combinations of minds and movements resulted in a display of the incredible strength that rests in all people and needs only to be awakened, prompting the launch event to name itself Mind + Movement = Might.
