no justice,
no peace

It's 2021, we shouldn't have to keep yelling:

BLACK LIVES MATTER. 

The unjust killing of Black individuals must end. It's time to tear down the system and build a new, equal system for all.

We won't stop until we see an end to oppression and systemic racism.

Black Lives Matter Survival Fund

BLMGNF and BLM Grassroots designed the BLM Survival Fund to support Black people and their families facing economic hardship during the pandemic by giving them cash as a means of support to keep them in their homes, keep food on the table, and ultimately provide a little breathing room in their lives.

Mutual Aid Networks

Mutual Aid Networks are autonomous, self-‐help organizations controlled by their members. If they enter into agreements with other organizations, including governments, or raise capital from external sources, they do so on terms that ensure democratic control by their members and maintain their cooperative autonomy.
