"Black Lives Matter" may be the largest movement in U.S. history1 — and you're a part of it.
That’s right, John. Our records show that you stood with Color Of Change when we needed you most. By signing petitions to demand justice for Black people killed by police, you joined millions of others to fight for change and defend Black lives.
You took the first step with us, and we couldn’t be more grateful for your support. Now, we need to know you’re still with us. Because the fact is, the fight we’re in together — for justice, for police accountability, and for a more equitable world for Black people — is far from over.
So we have to ask, John: Can we count on you to chip in $5 a month to power our critical work? Every dollar supports Color Of Change racial justice campaigns (like the petition you signed!) »
After setting up a recurring donation, your monthly gift will process on this day each month.

When you signed that petition to demand justice, you probably thought: I’m just one person. How will *my* voice make a difference?
But here’s the thing, John: The strength of our movement is in collective power. And together, one by one, our individual voices grew into a powerful roar heard around the world.
Since you stood with us months ago, our movement has made history. This year, Color Of Change members like you made tens of thousands of phone calls, sent thousands of texts, and took action on social media to amplify our demands for justice. Beyond petitions, we helped start a national, ongoing conversation about public safety and policing.2 And we didn’t stop there. We marched in the streets, then to the ballot box to show anti-Black elected officials the door.3 We can’t stop now, John — there’s too much at stake.
Confirm your commitment to the fight: Become a monthly supporter of Color Of Change today.
Until justice is real,
