Dear John,
As 2024 comes into focus, we’re taking time to reflect on our successes and spread some much-needed Black joy with members just like you.
This year, we ran winning campaigns to reform our broken criminal justice system, to hold Big Tech companies accountable for enabling hatred and misinformation, to protect voting rights and to strengthen our democracy, and so much more. Here are just a few highlights of work that supporters like you made possible:
We fought against the corporate influence eroding the legitimacy of the U.S. Supreme Court by pushing legislators and partnering on a nationwide bus tour with Demand Justice in key cities to raise awareness around the need for Supreme Court expansion and democracy reform.
We collaborated with the National Education Association to train more than 500 people on advocating for Black students in local school boards and challenging right-wing book bans.
We pushed corporations to affirm their commitment to offering courses like AP African American Studies and AP Psychology to defend access to education.
We pressured district attorneys’ offices nationwide to support Black communities through our Winning Justice initiative. Our actions pushed the Fulton County, Georgia, District Attorney’s Office to act on a historic reduction of the jail population by 828 people — nearly 23% — in the Fulton County Jail in just three months.
Building on the success of our phone justice work to demand Congress pass the Martha Wright-Reed Phone Justice Act last year, we worked in coalition with other movement groups to win similar legislation in Massachusetts that made prison phone calls free statewide.
But our democracy is still under attack as the far-right continues its attempts to disenfranchise our communities at the polls. Household costs are soaring due to corporate greed. Tech platforms continue to enable the spread of misinformation about our elections and our broken legal system continues to target and separate our families.
But thanks to the generosity of our most loyal donors, we've been able to strengthen our campaigns to build Black power, uplift Black joy, and win justice. That's why we're asking for your strength right now! Donate $25 or more before Dec. 31 to get official COC merch, including the popular "Until Justice Is Real" tote bag. Your gift ensures we can carry out another year dedicated to our mission: creating a more human, less hostile world for Black people in America.
