“I appreciate this campaign’s focus on Black economic development specifically. I am investing in the United Black Economies because I understand it to be crucial for Black people to engage meaningfully in Black economic development. This has be an historic truth that Boston Ujima Project brings forward in the present for another generation to learn and grow with. This work counters narratives rooted in fear and insecurity! In doing so it provides actively creative models for raising expectations of thought, possibility, and resource distribution for viable Black communities.”
