🧵 The fight for civil rights didn’t end in the 1960s.

It evolved into the struggle we’re facing right now.

This fall, our team stood on the Mississippi courthouse steps where Fannie Lou Hamer was once denied the right to vote.

Last week, staff + board came together for our final scenario planning retreat. We paused, reflected, and aligned on bold programmatic priorities for 2026 that will deepen our impact and commitment to racial equity.

We are grateful for this team that makes our work possible. Onward! 👏

2025 tested us. 2026 will define us.

This year challenged our communities and everyone fighting for civil rights, racial justice, and democracy. Our community still spoke out, filed lawsuits, demanded accountability, and showed up at the polls.

In 2026, we need your continued support. ⬇️

Today, we are extending gratitude for the organizers, advocates, volunteers, coalition partners, supporters, our staff, and our board who make the fight for civil rights possible.

This year, we have been tested, but your partnership and commitment reminds us that we are never in this work alone.
