Black Action Town Hall: Get Involved, Get Organized
The road to real power starts with a room full of people ready to build it. Join us for the Black Action Town Hall, a community gathering focused on one question: how do we, as a community, organize ourselves to build lasting political and economic power?
This town hall is your entry point into one of the most significant Black organizing efforts in a generation, the National Black Action Convention, taking place in Chicago, June 19–21, 2027. At that historic gathering, delegates from across the country will draft and ratify a National Black Legislative Agenda and lay the groundwork for an independent, Black-led political party. But that work starts here, in rooms like this one, with people like you.
At the Black Action Town Hall, you'll learn:
- What the National Black Action Convention is, and why it matters for our community's future
- How you can get involved as a delegate, a volunteer, or an organizer in your own neighborhood
- Why building our own institutions, free from systems shaped by structural racism, is essential to real, lasting self-determination
- How local organizing connects directly to national political and economic power
This isn't a lecture, it's a conversation. We'll open the floor for a live Q&A, so bring your questions, your concerns, and your ideas. Whether you're a longtime organizer or showing up for the first time, your voice belongs in this room.
Black political and economic power isn't something we wait for. It's something we build together, deliberately, and on our own terms. Come be part of it.
Seats are limited. Reserve yours today.
