John,
On August 28, 1963, hundreds of thousands gathered in Washington, D.C. to demand jobs, freedom, safety, and dignity. That march was not a moment. It was a mandate.
Sixty-two years later, the same system is trying to silence our votes, police our bodies, criminalize our communities, and strip wealth from Black families. We refuse to accept it.
Together, we are building power that cannot be ignored. We train organizers, resource local chapters, protect protestors, fight in courts and statehouses, and invest in mutual aid and community care.
If you believe the dream requires action, fuel the work today. Chip in now to power Black liberation!
Your gift moves:
-
Preservation of Black history. We know we can’t move forward without looking back at our past. Education is the key to understanding, and right now Black history is under attack.
-
Grants to local organizers building safety, housing, and healing for the communities they’re in.
-
Culture work that uplifts Black joy and vision, because joy is critical to our movement and our liberation.
Our ancestors marched so we could soar. We honor them by organizing, by winning real material change, and by reshaping what this so-called democracy delivers for Black people.
Make a donation today. Help us push this movement forward.
With love and power,
Black Lives Matter
P.S. Every dollar today is reinvested in fighting for Black freedom and building a future where Black people thrive.

Black Lives Matter imagines a world where Black people across the diaspora thrive, experience joy, and are not defined by their struggles.
In pursuing liberation, we envision a future fully divested from police, prisons, and all punishment paradigms and which invests in justice, joy, and culture. Email is the most important way we keep in touch with our supporters. But we know there's a lot going on.
