Black Phoenix Organizing Collective (BPOC/501(c)3) is building a bigger, better, Blacker future in PHX. We practice cultural organizing among inter-generational Black folks that centers queer and trans people, formerly incarcerated, disabled people, and Muslim immigrants and refugees. We prioritize the needs of Black people through two programs: Disability Justice and Reproductive Justice. We believe that supporting mental healthcare, holding, and creating space for vulnerability is a piece of how we free ourselves as abolitionists. We are moving to breaking down harmful systems and building new ones. Over the last year we have also committed ourselves to transformative justice practices even when it’s painful, or uncomfortable in all spaces.
