Sharing Our Stories for Change
movement and change
Sharing personal, unedited stories is our way of creating movement and change. We encourage our members to share stories that challenge the status quo and popular narratives, creating a counter-narrative that broadens the scope of possibility for meaningful change. Our purpose is to empower individuals to have a voice on the issues that matter most to the racial communities they belong to and to channel this energy into focused community action.
Below are two personal stories that reflect on significant events affecting Black communities. After reading, we invite you to share your feedback and continue the conversation.
COVID-19: The Impact on Black Communities
The lack of access to quality healthcare, the prevalence of frontline jobs among Black people, and the systemic racism embedded in our institutions all contributed to the devastating impact on our community. This wasn’t just about a virus; it was about a system that had failed us long before COVID-19 appeared.
What was your experience during the pandemic? Did it affect you or your community in ways that the mainstream media didn’t cover? We’d love to hear your story and how this experience shaped your views on the issues facing our community.

After each blog, we welcome your feedback and encourage you to share your own experiences.
connecting & learning from others
We are driven by a restless desire to be part of the change we wish to see, and that journey begins with connecting and learning from others. Our currency is the free support we offer to individuals who are willing to share their experiences within racial communities. The resources we provide are designed to build new insights and challenge existing thinking and practices, ensuring they align with the realities of local experiences.
