Magic City Bar Association
About Magic City Bar Association
Nine individuals established the Magic City Bar Association (“MCBA”) in November of 1984 in the birthplace of the Civil Rights Movement – Birmingham, Alabama – in response to a need to promote the professional advancement of African-American attorneys, to foster improvement of the economic condition, to protect the civil and political rights of all citizens, and to uphold the honor and integrity of the legal profession.
The MCBA continues to promote and facilitate the professional advancement of minority attorneys and provides a forum for discussing and addressing a wide variety of community issues and concerns. Today, we stand as an organization and as black attorneys on the shoulders of our founders. Without their courage, without their determination, without the stern fortitude of those that have gone before us, we would not be here today.
