Mission Statement

WE HOLD OURSELVES, GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, BUSINESSES, AND OTHER ACTORS ACCOUNTABLE TO THE ROOT CAUSES OF RACISM AND THEIR MANIFESTATION IN UNFAIR TREATMENT AND INEQUITABLE ACCESS TO RESOURCES, POWER, AND OPPORTUNITIES BASED ON RACE. WE ADVOCATE FOR LAWS THAT ADVANCE SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND RACIAL EQUITY THROUGH A MODEL OF COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND MOVEMENT LAWYERING USING THE LEGAL TOOLS OF POLICY, ADVOCACY AND IMPACT LITIGATION. WE IMAGINE A WORLD WHERE (1) WE ARE ALL FREE AND NOT CAGED IN PRISONS, JAILS, OR IMMIGRATION DETENTION; (2) HAVE EQUITABLE RIGHTS AND BENEFITS REGARDLESS OF OUR INCARCERATION OR IMMIGRATION STATUS; AND (3) ARE ABLE TO EXERCISE OUR COLLECTIVE POWER TO BUILD AND SUPPORT HEALTHY, ECONOMICALLY STABLE, AND VIBRANT COMMUNITIES.
