Mission

BYP100 is an activist member-based organization of Black 18-35-year-olds, dedicated to creating justice and freedom for all Black people. We do this through building a collective focused on transformative leadership development, direct action organizing, advocacy and education using a Black queer feminist lens. In practice, this means we train young black activists in direct action grassroots organizing skills, so they can build the power we need to transform our communities. We mobilize young Black leaders on issues including ending criminalization and dismantling the prison industrial complex, expanding and securing LGBT and women’s rights. We run campaigns using on-the-ground and digital tactics towards ending the criminalization of Black youth, racial profiling & police brutality.
