100% will go to NBJC
Founded in 2003, NBJC initially sought to address specific sets of challenges facing the Black community–the erasure of Black queer, trans, and gender-expansive people and a political push to define marriage in ways that deny Black LGBGTQ+/SGL people recognition and access to economic, social, political rights.
Having faithfully and successfully fulfilled its original purpose, NBJC has rebranded. Henceforth, the NBJC is the National Black Justice Collective.
NBJC has accepted the charge to lead Black families in strengthening the bonds and bridging the gaps between the movements for racial justice and LGBTQ equality.
