Advocate for San Francisco to fund groups that are indigenous to our community.
Support community efforts in education, housing, workforce training, entrepreneurial endeavors, seniors, youth and family services.
Lakeview (OMI), San Francisco. Broad Street between Plymouth and Capital. The Message: “INVEST BLACK!” Why: Our community needs everyone to invest in its black residents, its black businesses, its black youth, in black health, in black safety, in black culture, in black education and in black voices because they have historically been underserved and neglected. Each of these investments (and more) make up the fist that is resistance and most importantly stand as a reminder that Black Lives Matter. Yes, this is art, but more importantly it’s a call to action. Thank you to the community for doing this. This is phenomenal - E.J. JONES
