On Saturday, February 28th, the Institute for Black Justice celebrated growth and reignited the community's passion for change. We thank everyone who attended and contributed to this event!

For five years, the Institute for Black Justice (IBJ) has stood as a beacon of advocacy, courage, and community empowerment. We exist to confront systemic inequities, to uplift Black and marginalized families, and to build pathways toward a justice system rooted in equity and accountability. Thousands of lives have been touched through our legal advocacy, community programs, and bold vision for transformation.

The Institute for Black Justice is launched a transformational campaign to raise $5 million in 25 months, not just to sustain our work, but to scale a full ecosystem of family and community-centered justice. Be a changemaker through helping our organziation expand our services to the community member often forgotten, neglected, and ignored.
This is about impact.
This is about leadership.
This is about community power.

Attorney, Tara Urs, interviewed our Keynote: Dorothy Roberts about the interplay of gender, race, and class in legal issues concerning child welfare.
Roberts' book, TORN APART , was the backbone of the conversation about how the child welfare system destroys black families and how abolition can build a safer world.

At our event, we promoted Black-owned businesses in honor of Black businesses lost during the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre.
Thank you to our vendors!
