Black Feminist Future (BFF) is a political hub focused on the dynamic possibilities of galvanizing the social and political power of Black women, girls, and gender-expansive people toward liberation.
MAGNITUDE AND BOND: CELEBRATING 10 YEARS OF BLACK FEMINIST FUTURE
“We are each other’s harvest; we are each other’s business; we are each other’s magnitude and bond.”, Gwendolyn Brooks
At Black Feminist Future (BFF) interdependency and collaboration are the textures in our map. One decade in, BFF is a testament to the strength of Black feminisms, both reflective of our membership and committed to our liberation. Put simply, we are in the business of Black freedom.
We are drawing the shape of our liberation in ink, giving name to the constellations that help us way-find, and following our North Stars home. In celebration of our 10 year anniversary, BFF presents Magnitude and Bond, a series of transformative activations for Black feminists throughout the country to continue our expansion toward a Black feminist future where we are all free.
Black Feminist Future (BFF) is a member-centered organization and our members help inform our work, campaigns, and initiatives. At BFF, we’re centering leadership development, community care, and joy in order to build the political and social power that we need to win concrete changes in our lives, community, and beyond.

Today, on the anniversary of their births, we honor Ida B. Wells and Assata Shakur—two Black women whose lives remind us that the struggle for freedom has always required courage, truth-telling, and an unwavering belief that another world is possible. Ida used journalism to expose the terror of lynching and challenged movements that demanded Black women’s labor while denying their full humanity. Assata’s writing and revolutionary politics confronted racism, policing, imprisonment, and the systems that determine whose lives and freedom are protected. Their paths and legacies are distinct, but both understood that Black women are not simply witnesses to history. We are thinkers, organizers, storytellers, and architects of liberation. Today, we honor their lives, their work, and the generations continuing to carry the struggle forward. #IdaBWells #AssataShakur #BlackFeministHistory #BlackWomenInHistory

Today we celebrate the birthday of Mary McLeod Bethune, an educator, organizer, institution builder, and one of the most influential Black leaders in our nation’s history. Mary McLeod Bethune believed that Black women and girls deserved access to education, opportunity, and the power to shape their own futures. She founded schools, advised presidents, organized alongside Black women leaders, and helped build institutions that expanded political and economic opportunity for Black communities. Her work reminds us that lasting change is built through vision, organization, and a deep commitment to community. The pathways she helped create continue to influence generations of Black women leaders, organizers, educators, and advocates. As we honor her life and legacy, we celebrate the enduring impact of her work and the generations of Black women, girls, and gender-expansive people who continue building on the foundation she helped lay. Happy Heavenly Birthday, #MaryMcLeodBethune.

As Pride Month comes to a close, we honor the Black queer and trans visionaries whose courage, creativity, and leadership have shaped Black feminisms and transformed our movements. Before Pride became a celebration, it was a movement. A movement imagined, organized, and led by Black queer and trans visionaries who dared to envision liberation beyond what existed. They challenged systems of oppression, spoke truth to power, and built blueprints for liberation. At Black Feminist Future, those blueprints remain our guideposts. They shape how we organize, imagine, and build Black feminist futures. Black queer and trans leadership is not adjacent to Black feminisms. It is foundational to it. That truth has always guided our work, and it will continue to shape the future we’re building together. They imagined. We continue.

Happy Blackity Black Juneteenth! May it be restful, joyful, and cemented with peace and love. ❤️🖤💚 👩🏿‍🎨 @Queenloany

We know that’s right! The people united will never be defeated! ✊🏿 The fight is not over and we will continue to have our foot on necks so we can flip the South. #AllEyesOnGeorgia

Across the Nation we have seen efforts to use redistricting as a way to completely eliminate Black political leadership. Today, Governor Brian Kemp pulled a special legislative session to consider redrawing congressional, state House, and state Senate district maps. The proposed changes could have significant impact on several of the districts under discussion are places where Black voters make up a significant share of the electorate. These districts under consideration collectively represent hundreds of thousands of Black Georgians, who have helped shape political representation in their communities for generations. Black Feminist Future rejects the efforts to undermine Black political power. When we center Black feminisms, we center Black representation, participation, and the power of Black communities to determine what comes next. #AllEyesOnGeorgia

Georgia lawmakers will convene for a Special Session on June 17 that could reshape political representation across the state for years to come. Black Feminist Future is calling on members, supporters, and partners to stay informed and take action for a transparent redistricting process that protects fair representation.

Last week at the NOVA Summit, Black reproductive health, rights, and justice leaders came together to align, fortify, and build. We asked participants to describe their experience in a single word. What came back wasn’t just feedback. It was a reflection of what becomes possible when Black feminists gather with shared purpose. Across three days, we strengthened relationships, sharpened strategy, and deepened our collective commitment to one another and the work ahead. NOVA was never meant to be a moment. It is part of a larger effort to align, fortify, and position the Black reproductive health, rights, and justice ecosystem for collective action, collaboration, and sustained movement building. The words speak for themselves. The work continues. #NOVASummit #AlignFortifyBuild #BlackReproEcosystem

NOVA SUMMIT DAY 2 🦋 A day filled with love, laughter, and collective world-building. We spent time getting grounded in the current landscape of the Black reproductive ecosystem, hearing from brilliant panelists who shared wisdom, insight, and words of empowerment. We broke bread together, reconnected with community, built new relationships, and began imagining a future that will be a force to reckon with. Thank you to our panelist and speakers who led workshops today! 💜🩷

Researchers have found that Black households face a median energy burden that is 45% higher than other households. Women, low-income women, and female-headed households with children experience even more energy insecurity. When we say, “We ain’t got it,” we are speaking about a real, material situation. Fighting back means changing the conditions that keep Black women, girls, and gender-expansive people always struggling to survive. This includes demanding that corporations take responsibility, protecting our neighborhoods from exploitation, and pushing back against the control of capitalism in our lives. Black women, girls, and gender-expansive people deserve to live, work, rest, and be safe in the communities we help build.

Femicide is the gender-related killing of women and girls. The term was brought into modern feminist use by Diana E. H. Russell in 1976. Russell later defined femicide as “the killing of females by males because they are female.” As we process the recent murders of women by partners, relatives, and people within their own homes and families, we are naming this violence clearly and sharing resources for anyone who may need support. This Sunday, April 26, Black Feminist Future (BFF) invites you to join us for a Protect Love Defend Black Women community altar-building ceremony. Bring photos, flowers, spirits, and any other offering you’d like on the altar as we gather in community to honor, grieve, and name the harm. Howell Park�983 Ralph David Abernathy Blvd. SW �12:00 pm – 1:30 pm If you are not in Atlanta, we encourage you to host your own Protect, Love, Defend Black Women in whatever way feels right for you.

People often talk about “choice,” but many of us understand that the reality is more complex. This plenary is a chance to have a deeper conversation about what Black reproductive justice really asks of us. It encourages us to look beyond individual choices and focus on what our communities need to live, decide, and thrive. We’ll explore together what it means to stay committed to collective liberation. We’ll look at feminism and intersectionality as core values that guide how we act, organize, and build—not just as extras. This framework isn’t just based on theory. It comes from lived experience, clear political vision, and generations of organizing. If you’ve been wanting a space to think more deeply, more collectively, and more honestly about our next steps, this is the place for you. Join us at NOVAReproHub.org
