Information from the Movement For Black Lives website:

“About Us” from the Movement For Black Lives website

The Movement for Black Lives (M4BL) formed in December of 2014, was created as a space for Black organizations across the country to debate and discuss the current political conditions, develop shared assessments of what political interventions were necessary in order to achieve key policy, cultural and political wins, convene organizational leadership in order to debate and co-create a shared movement wide strategy. Under the fundamental idea that we can achieve more together than we can separately.

“Who We Are” from the Movement For Black Lives website

We are Abolitionist:
We believe that prisons, police and all other institutions that inflict violence on Black people must be abolished and replaced by institutions that value and affirm the flourishing of Black lives.

We believe in centering the experiences and leadership of the most marginalized Black people, including but not limited to those who are trans and queer, women and femmes, currently and formerly incarcerated, immigrants, disabled, working class, and poor.

We believe in transformation and a radical realignment of power:
The current systems we live inside of need to be radically transformed, which includes a realignment of global power. We are creating a proactive, movement-based vision instead of a reactionary one.

We build kinship with one another:
We draw from political lessons, grow in our leadership, and expanding our base to build a stronger movement.

We are anti-capitalist:
We believe and understand that Black people will never achieve liberation under the current global racialized capitalist system.

What We Do from the Movement For Black Lives website

The Movement for Black Lives is an ecosystem of individuals and organizations creating a shared vision and policy agenda to win rights, recognition, and resources for Black people. In doing so, the movement makes it possible for us, and therefore everyone, to live healthy and fruitful lives.

MY4BL Tables from the Movement For Black Lives website

Our movement is driven by leadership anchored to 6 tables: Policy, Organizing/BaseBuilding, Electoral Justice, The Rising Majority, Culture and Resource. Our movement’s structure is decentralized yet cohesive. Each table is part of this multi-functional, highly adaptive hub, and is responsible for a different strategy and programming that feeds into our larger long-term visions.

Our 5 Year Plan

Project 2024: Black Power Rising from the Movement For Black Lives website

Our movement and Black communities overwhelmingly are not currently in a position to set agendas to scale, control the institutions that affect our lives, or create mechanisms to mitigate harm. This assessment should not be interpreted as a failure of our social movements, but it does expose a critical gap. Over the next 5 years, we have created a popular strategy rooted in transformative goals that can impact the millions of Black people looking for direction and leadership in this moment. Chiefly, Black governance and ultimately positioning our communities to set agendas sits at the heart of M4BL Project 2024: Black Power Rising.
