Our Issues

As we celebrate Black History Month 2025, we honor the triumphs and struggles that have shaped our communities. While we reflect on the legacies of Black historical figures, we must also address the challenges that persist—especially those affecting our Black children and youth.

The future of our communities rests in their hands, yet they continue to face systemic barriers that stifle their potential. Too often, they navigate a world that fails to recognize their worth despite their extraordinary brilliance. Representation in high-level fields—whether in classrooms, corporate offices, or leadership roles—is essential. Seeing people who share their racial and cultural identity thriving empowers them to envision success and break cycles of limitation.
