Our spirits are still empowered one week removed from #JustNarratives our first-ever geared towards narrative change. Together, over 450 attendees developed narrative strategies, skillsets, and tactics to ignite our path towards a multiracial democracy.
This is what solidarity looks like.
This is what solidarity looks like.
Another Back to Black is in the books!
Race Forward is thankful for Games Done Quick and the Black in a Flash! community who raised over $53,000 last weekend. Together, the nation's top players completed speedruns through classic and current video games for a weekend of Black joy!
