Tomorrow we’re celebrating the one and only Cardi B. Afro-Caribbean. Latina. Bisexual. Unfiltered. Never afraid to speak truth to power. We love seeing a star use her platform to say what others are too scared to say. Happy Birthday, Cardi. OKURRRR! 💅🏽

Members of the Divine Nine, an iconic collective of Black-greek life, share why they think young Black people should vote. Their responses should make you check your registration status, research what's on your ballot, and make a plan to vote! Start here: coc.is/vote

We deserve care. Care that is meant for us, care that doesn’t discriminate, care that directly supports the Black community. Text GETCARE to 55156. As we begin Color Of Change’s Liberated Bodies: Lugenia Burns Hope Tour, we encourage you to stand up for the care you deserve.

In honor of Banned Books Week, we asked our team: What are your favorite banned books? 📚 As book challenges hit record levels, we’re celebrating the Black and LGBTQ+ stories that challenge us and teach us. Read banned books. Pass them on. Until justice is real.

Our Lugenia Burns Hope Tour kicks off today at Jackson State, and the message we’re bringing is loud and clear: we all deserve racially competent reproductive care, bodily autonomy, and the freedom to shape our futures. Join us. Take the pledge. coc.is/liberatedbodiespledge

Throughout LGBTQ+ history, Black LGBTQ+ folks have been trailblazers, icons, pathmakers and groundbreakers. October is LGBTQ+ History Month, and we honor those whose work, art, voices, stories, and contributions have fueled the fight for Black LGBTQ+ liberation and visibility.

Black superheroes embody the strength and power in all of us. And when people try to dismiss that representation as “woke,” it’s worth remembering: Black identity and the realities of race have been part of these characters’ stories from the beginning. Who is your favorite Superhero?

“They will come for you.” When corporations and powerful institutions organize to punish people for speaking truth to power, it sends a message: Stay quiet, or you could be next. That’s why we organize. Not just when it comes for us, but before.

“Our son’s life does not matter to those who hold positions that are supposed to serve and protect the public.” Those are the words of Nolan Wells’ mother. We demand justice for Nolan Wells and all the other Black youth whose deaths our justice system has failed.

On Dolly Parton Day, we remember a woman who didn’t just say Black lives mattered. She showed it. From supporting Black artists and BLM to investing royalties in Black Nashville and putting millions of free books in kids’ hands, Dolly put compassion into action.

Trump wants to erase millions of us from the 2030 Census. His new proposal would exclude non-citizens and other minorities from the population count required by the Constitution. Tell the Census Bureau: Every person counts, no exceptions. Here: https://bit.ly/4y2YroR

Hey, @bigdoordash.bsky.social. We fixed it. A lukewarm admission and a forced settlement barely begin to make things right for all the app-based workers you’ve exploited. So, when can we expect a settlement for all dashers who haven’t received a fair wage?

It’s 10 PM. Do you know what your parents are clicking? 👀 Your parents taught you not to talk to strangers online. Now you need to talk to them about online scams. On September 30, join the National Day of Action to Stop Online Scams. www.UnitedtoStopOnlineScams.org

Converse. Target. Burberry. Gucci. Prada. Different companies. Same story: racist ads and products, public backlash, then an apology. How does this keep happening? When Black voices aren’t in the room, companies miss what should’ve been obvious.

AI is opening Pandora’s box. Black communities already face discrimination in hiring, housing, healthcare, policing, and access to opportunity. AI can automate those same biases and spread them faster, farther, with less accountability. We need stronger rules and real oversight.

No caption required. But in case you need a reminder, the midterm elections are consequential. Black voters can build a democracy that works for everyone. 👏🏾Register 👏🏾to 👏🏾 vote. coc.is/projectoverwin

All children deserve to start their scholastic journey early through well-equipped Head Start programs, no matter where they live. We’re joining our friends @neatoday.bsky.social in fighting back against the Trump’s administration’s attempt to weaken the programs: https://coc.is/HeadStartNEA

On September 15, 1963, white supremacists bombed the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama, killing four Black girls. They targeted a church that had become a center of the Civil Rights Movement. Honor their lives by continuing to fight. Until Justice is Real.

In a win for voters, the Supreme Court has rejected Trump’s attempt to reinstate restrictions on mail voting ahead of November’s midterm elections. For generations, Black communities have fought to expand voting access. Court rulings matter, but people have always driven progress.

Things my mom texts me when I’m already overstimulated… But one thing she’s right about: REGISTER TO VOTE. 🗳️ Check your registration. Make your plan. Use your voice. Happy National Voter Registration Day! ✊🏾 #NationalVoterRegistrationDay #RegisterToVote #ColorOfChange #DefendTheVote

We’re ready to celebrate Black leadership! As proud sponsors of Bridge Builders 2026, we’re honoring leaders who are shaping the future of our workplaces, our democracy, and our communities. #ALC55 #CBCF #MoneyPowerRespect

It’s modern-day slavery. A GOP Super PAC paid Oklahoma $10/hour for incarcerated people to make political phone calls. The prisoners were paid just $2/hour. End prison labor exploitation. #ColorOfChange #PrisonReform #PrisonLabor #EndPrisonLabor #13thAmendment #RacialJustice

We're excited to join our friend Tia from Urban Reads Bookstore and the folks at @neatoday.bsky.social for our Family Power Festival this upcoming Saturday, Sept. 19, 2026. There'll be gifts for everyone, including books! Be sure to join us: coc.is/familypowerfestival

Bribery? Is that where we are? Trump promised to give Americans $5k if the GOP wins the upcoming midterm elections. This is just another one of his empty promises while he fails to make groceries affordable, lower gas prices, and improve our healthcare. It’s a desperate attempt to get votes.

Workers fought for the rights we have today. Black workers have always been central to that fight. From building this country through forced labor to organizing for fair pay, safety, and dignity. This Labor Day, we honor their legacy by continuing the fight for economic justice.

They call it “budget cuts.” We call it what it is: another attack on Black history. Across the country, Black Studies are being cut, merged, and pushed aside as Trump and Republicans wage a broader war on how race and history are taught. We won’t let them erase it.

B-More! Our Family Power Festival in partnership with @neatoday.bsky.social and Urban Reads Bookstore is happening on Sept. 19, 2026. It's time to show up for public education, inform ourselves about what's at stake, and continue showing up for each other. Join us: coc.is/familypowerfestival
