Post-election, many young Black people, Latinos and ÈËÊÞÐÔ½»+ individuals have been targeted with hateful and racist text messages. We strongly condemn this bigotry and harassment. Rest assured, the ÈËÊÞÐÔ½» has launched a rapid response investigation to find the source of these attacks.
If you have received such a message, we urge you to report it and access our resources for support. Together, we stand against hate.Â
At our core, we are committed to strengthening the political, economic, and social power of Black communities in the South because we understand that when Black people thrive, it uplifts us all.
Our work is grounded in the South, where the legacy of civil rights history still informs our struggle for racial equity. We are steadfast in our commitment to listening to and learning from Black and Brown communities most profoundly affected by white supremacy.
We are dedicated to creating a world where Black and Brown communities are not just represented but deeply respected by our democracy. Our vision extends to a future where the scourges of white supremacy, poverty, and mass incarceration are eradicated.
