Mutual Aid and COVID Relief
When COVID came, our communities responded with deep intention.
We'll select a Black Liberationist who organized or supported initiatives that met the immediate needs of Black people who were negatively impacted by the global pandemic.
Electoral Justice
Our Liberation will never come from the ballot box, but Black Liberationists leverage this tool while maintaining a thorough understanding of Black people's complicated relationship to political representation.
We'll select a Black Liberationist, preferably based in the Deep South or a battleground state, who fights voter suppression.
Reproductive Justice
With the corrupt appointment of an anti-sexual health Justice, reproductive justice is an urgent necessity.
We'll select a Black Liberationist who is proactively organizing to protect reproductive justice.
Climate Justice
Our fight for Liberation takes root in healthy ecosystems that multinational corporations and the white supremacists who run them are destroying.
We'll select a Black Liberationist whose framework of climate justice is entirely informed by an understanding of how white supremacy is the leading cause of climate instability.
