Dear John,
We're just ONE DAY OUT from NBJC's Equity Week 2025, happening June 11–14 in Washington, D.C., and we want YOU there with us.
As we celebrate Pride across D.C. this week, let's channel that energy into sustained action. Equity Week continues the momentum with focused advocacy specifically for Black LGBTQ+/SGL communities who remain at the intersections of multiple fights for justice.
Equity Week is a powerful, weeklong celebration of Black LGBTQ+/SGL brilliance, leadership, and movement-building. We need boots on the ground to move us toward justice and liberation for all.
Equity Week is NBJC's signature week of action, a sacred gathering of changemakers, artists, advocates, and allies. Together, we'll push for transformative policies, celebrate Black queer excellence, and honor our freedom fighters.
This year's can't miss events:
🕊️ The Bayard Rustin Reflection Pool Gathering (Saturday, June 14). This is our moment for maximum visibility. We're expecting 1,000+ marchers to honor the legacy of one of our greatest freedom fighters. Join us as we march for voting rights, reparations, and education equity with purpose, pride, and power.
✨ OUT on the Hill (June 12-13) Black LGBTQ+/SGL leaders take the Hill to advance the policies that matter most to us: reparations, education equity, voting rights, and anti-discrimination protections. Your voice belongs in these rooms.
🎭 The Equity Ball (Friday, June 13) A night of unapologetic expression, joy, and ballroom culture at the historic Howard Theatre. Because joy is resistance, and we're bringing ALL the joy.
Join 500+ advocates already registered. Including leaders from Black Lives Matter, Human Rights Commission, Center for Black Equity, and LGBTQ Taskforce.
Register for all events here →
Commit to march with us Saturday →
Let's show up for each other and for the future we deserve. Let's be loud. Let's be visible. Let's be free ✊🏾
See you in DC, John!
P.S. 🎥 Watch & share the promo video to inspire others to join us!
P.P.S. Can't make it to D.C.? Support our advocacy by sharing this with 3 friends who should be there!
Our grassroots movement is pushing for Black liberation every single day. We are striving to create a world where Black people do so much more than just survive. It’s time we thrive.
As an organization one of our biggest hurdles is consistency.
A recurring contribution of anything you can afford goes a long way as we plan for the months, years, and even decades ahead. This is the most effective way for small-dollar donors (like you) to power our Black liberation work.
Will you make a recurring contribution of $5 or more today so that we can keep building momentum for our movement?
