OUR MISSION

Imagine Black helps our Black community imagine the alternatives we deserve and build our political participation and leadership to achieve those alternatives.

OUR VISION

Imagine Black envisions a world where people of African descent enjoy the rights, resources, and recognition to be a thriving, resilient, and connected community.

OUR LENS

The Black Queer Feminist (BQF) lens is a political theory and practice developed out of Black feminist and LGBTQIA+ liberation movements. This praxis (thought + action) is a lens through which we better understand the conditions of all Black people -- highlighting what we must transform in order to liberate all oppressed people.

BQF offers a holistic understanding of our conditions and connectedness as Black people. As a result, we understand that liberation for all Black people can only be realized by lifting up the voices, experiences and prioritizing the issues of historically silenced and vulnerable groups within Black communities – specifically, queer, trans and GNC, femme, poor, disabled, working, and undocumented people (adapted from BYP100).

As organizers, we take Fannie Lou Hamer’s words seriously: “Nobody's free until everybody's free.”

At Imagine Black, we operate through three distinct corporate entities: Imagine Black (501c4), Imagine Black Futures (501c3), and Imagine Black Ventures LLC. Each entity is affiliated and works towards our shared vision, yet they have specific activities tailored to their roles. While there is some overlap, certain tasks are exclusive to each organization.
