Hi John,
Today marks the first day of Black History Month. From local campaigns to national movements, we celebrate the past, present, and future of Black communities. Today and everyday we honor Black voices and their fight for justice.
The following organizations are part of national efforts and grassroots mobilizations that inspire change and further the cause of racial justice. I encourage you to check them out and support them this month and year-round!
The Action Center on Race and the Economy (ACRE) fights for racial-economic justice by challenging financial and political actors who profit at the expense of BIPOC communities. Learn more about ACRE here.
The Black Institute is a research organization founded by Bertha Lewis to advance Black, African, and Aborigine cultures as a political class. Learn more about The Black Institute here.
Black Voters Matter is a national organization dedicated to expanding Black voter engagement and increasing progressive power. Learn more about Black Voters Matter here and read our partner profile here.
The Center for Common Ground educates and empowers voters of color in voter suppression states. Learn more about the Center for Common Ground here and read our interview with Andrea Miller, Founding Board Member and Executive Director of the Center for Common Ground, here.
The Redress Movement is a racial justice organization building collective power across racial and ethnic lines so people can redress racial segregation in their own communities. Learn more about The Redress Movement here.
These partner organizations are testaments of the power and resilience of Black History. At Action Network and Action Builder, we are proud to support organizations leading a movement for justice and equality.
In Solidarity,
