We’re proud to join the #BlackMigrantPowerFund, a new community-led fund for and by Black migrants that aims to close the funding gap and invest in the power and leadership of Black migrant communities. #Philanthropy #Immigration #GCIR2022 BlackMigrantPowerFund.org

“The creation of the #BlackMigrantPowerFund is vital and important as it emphasizes the work being done on the ground by Black migrant-led organizations” –Glory Kilanko of WomenWatchAfrika,Inc on the launch of the new BlackMigrantPowerFund #GCIR2022

“Black migrants, especially those of us at the margins, are fighting for a life free from criminalization, imprisonment or state-sanctioned death.” –Ola Osaze of NEO Philanthropy on why the #BlackMigrantPowerFund is an important step towards justice in #philanthropy #GCIR2022

“While our communities and their needs keep growing, the resources to do this work do not. The #BlackMigrantPowerFund will help shift money and power for our communities” –Amaha Kassa of African Communities Together #GCIR2022

“The #BlackMigrantPowerFund allows directly impacted communities to engage in self-advocacy efforts including participatory research and national advocacy to build power and transform a racist immigration system” –Ninaj Raoul of Haitian Women for Haitian Refugees #GCIR2022

"The deportation of 15,000 Black Haitians under the International Bridge in Del Rio, TX and how they were treated, made it clear that there are critical needs facing Black migrants that are not being met nor discussed." –Guerline Jozef of HaitianBridge #GCIR2022

The new BlackMigrantPowerFund calls for intersectional migrant justice in a philanthropic landscape that has been historically steeped in anti-Black racism: bit.ly/3b5cvbG National Immigration Law Center BAJI Democracy Frontlines Fund #philanthropy #MigrantJustice #Juneteenth

On #juneteenth2022, we honor the leadership and history of Black people striving for freedom in the US as we continue to pursue intersectional #migrantjustice for Black migrant communities today. Our movements are inextricably linked.

New data from the NCRP shows Black migrant justice groups receive less than 2% of the movement's funding. Black, AAPI, Indigenous, refugee, and LGBTQ migrant justice groups do groundbreaking work — their budgets deserve to be made whole. ncrp.org/publication/20…
