The property at 3820 Alfred St. has always been the focal point of the St. Bernard community. As the headquarters of the New Day Black Community Development Organization, it provided economic assistance, advocacy against injustice, day care services, job banks, GED programs, a youth club and many other social, political and recreational services. There is not much left of what used to be our community physically, but the spirit, culture and love for St. Bernard still lives. The Fightback center is the perfect place for the yearly Mother’s Day reunions that the Big 7 parade has become.
