On September 30, 2017 Black women in all their diversity will march on the National Mall and the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. to denounce the propagation of state-violence and the widespread incarceration of Black women and girls, rape and all sexualized violence, the murders and brutalization of transwomen and the disappearances of our girls from our streets, our schools and our homes. 

We need you to show up for Black women! RSVP here and share via Facebook

Moreover, in this highly political moment of the twentieth year anniversary of the Million Women March, we amplify the struggles of Black women in the rural South—the “Black Belt”, and demand a cease and desist of all threats to those of us who are immigrant women across the country, living in fear of deportation.

We have always put it simply: Black women's issues are racial justice issues. Black lived-experiences related to gender, sexuality, gender identity are--racial-- justice--issues. On September 30, 2017, Black women and comrades will unite and lock arms and march unapologetically at the center of the scheduled MARCH FOR RACIAL JUSTICE as our very own MARCH FOR BLACK WOMEN.






Aya Inc. is recruiting young professional women of color to serve as mentors to undergraduate students at Howard University. We 
are having a mixer event next month. RSVP here

If you're interested in serving as a mentor, please complete the intake form here.
