⏰October 24 5-7pm
📍Grace Congregational Church of Harlem

Join us for the first day of the International Week of Action for Cuba and Month of Pan-African Solidarity with Cuba for a teach in on the historic relationship between the Black Liberation Struggle and Cuba featuring film clips from Cuba in Africa, speeches by Fidel and Malcolm X, and Belly of the Beast. In this time of intensifying blockade and the silent genocide of the Cuban people, the US media continues to lie to us about Cuba and our historic solidarity with Cuba. Join us to learn, share and discuss how our collective fight from Harlem, NYC to Cuba against our common enemy: US empire and imperialism!

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, & it holds a special meaning for YBQ NYC.

YBQ NYC was started on the basis of domestic violence awareness, making this more than just another month on the calendar for us. It is a reminder of why accessible resources and spaces where Black women feel supported matter so much.

Domestic violence (DV) does not exist in isolation. “It is deeply connected to broader social systems, cultural conditions...” Survivors also should not live in isolation. Support should extend beyond awareness posts. It should look like sharing resources and taking the time to learn how to support a loved one experiencing DV.

This month, we are continuing to execute our motto: uplift, showcase, inspire. This month, we hope to contribute to a world where Black women are BELIEVED.

Awareness is only a starting point 💜

Protesters gathered at a vigil and rally for Pierre Damas Bel at Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Plaza in Harlem. As rain fell, protesters chanted, “Say it once, say it twice, we will not put up with ICE.”

The event remembered the life of Bel, a 20-year-old Haitian immigrant who died by suicide in Ohio after losing Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and being forced to wear an ICE ankle monitor.
