Lenora Fulani Archive

Lenora Branch Fulani (born April 25, 1950) is an American psychologist, psychotherapist, and political activist. She is best known for her presidential campaigns and development of youth programs serving minority communities in the New York City area. In the 1988 United States presidential election heading the New Alliance Party ticket, she became the first woman and the first African American to achieve ballot access in all fifty states. She received more votes for president in a U.S. general election than any other woman until Jill Stein of the Green Party of the United States in 2012. Fulani's political concerns include racial equality, gay rights, and political reform, specifically to encourage third parties. The Lenora Fulani Archive, consisting of original speeches, position papers, and other items created and used by Dr. Fulani is currently held by UNC Greensboro faculty member Dr. Omar Ali, who has made it available for digitization with Dr. Fulani's permission. UNCG alumna Jenny Lois Francisco served as research assistant on the project with Dr. Ali.
