Invest in Real Community Change.

Dear Equiticity Family,

What happens when we turn on the Power, and Equity moves like electricity through our homes, streets, neighborhoods, and cities?

What systems will we transform? What outcomes will we achieve? What possibilities will this create? What leaders will we inspire?

For the past six years, Equiticity has been imagining and creating the answers to these questions. We are a racial equity movement that harnesses the power of Black, Brown, and Indigenous people to remove racialized inequities, improve life outcomes for marginalized racial groups, and dismantle structural racism. Through our research, advocacy, programs, Community Mobility Rituals, and social enterprises we are advancing racial equity, increasing mobility, and accelerating racial justice.

Investing in The Equiticity Racial Equity Movement helps realize community initiatives, including:

The Go Hub: A Community Mobility Center, a physical space for community- and power-building, providing access to the necessary hardware (mobility devices and infrastructure) and software (community mobility rituals and socialization programs) to increase mobility in two Chicago neighborhoods.
The Freedom & Culture Bicycle Cooperative, a bike manufacturing worker co-op, designed to break the trans-generational cycle of poverty, create living wage jobs, provide young adults with transferable job skills, reduce hyper-local violence, and improve neighborhood health and transportation-related outcomes.
Community Mobility Rituals, inclusive of five distinct series of community bicycle rides, neighborhood walking tours, public transit excursions, group scooter rolls, and open street festivals, all designed to increase social cohesion and collective efficacy, as tools to reduce violence at the neighborhood level.
BikeForce, an e-bike technologies workforce development program focused on introducing high school students to the technologies inside of an e-bike.
The Equiticity Bike Team, engaging young people in the vast world of bikes, and related careers, competitions, tours, and programs.
Racial Equity Training Academy, providing a training and leadership development program for residents, organizers, advocates, activists, academics, philanthropists, and policymakers, designed for people to explore a foundational understanding of racial equity and its operational implementation.

Equiticity’s vision is the creation of a mid- to large-size U.S. city where racial equity is fully integrated at the policy and legislative levels into every function, department, resource, and budget associated with the city’s operations, services, and programs. It would serve as a global model for the rest of the world on how to normalize, prioritize, and operationalize racial equity, as an equitably moving flow of resources contributing to reducing violence, improving health, creating jobs, and ultimately making our neighborhoods and cities more liveable for Black, Brown, Indigenous people.

Please join our racial equity movement by investing today and inviting your network to do the same.

Thank you for your generous support of our racial equity movement.

May our collective journey to freedom continue.

Warm regards,

What happens when we turn on the Power, and Equity moves like electricity through our homes, streets, neighborhoods, and cities?
