The Black Freedom Collective invites you to our hybrid (virtual and in-person) BFC Partner Convening which will take place at The Line in Washington, DC From Wednesday, July 27, through Friday, July 29th for BFC partners to come together and retreat, re-connect, rest and rejuvenate. The gathering aims to build and deepen relationships amongst partners and radically reimagine the network’s purpose, vision, and structure.
We’re growing! The BFC network is 29 partners strong and has become even more richer and diverse across regions, issue areas, and ideas. As we expand we want to lean into imagination about the possibilities and power of our collective and what is needed to strengthen and transform this space to best serve the needs of partners.
What to expect:
The Reinvestment Team and our facilitators, Viveka Chen and Maura Bailey of co-LAB, are working hard to create a relaxing and fun experience that aims to foster relationship building and deepening, and space to radically reimagine our BFC network and the possibilities for us to strengthen our network and the work we do. We know folks are tired and that there are multiple pandemics that continue to spread throughout our country and world and hope to be a space of respite and rejuvenation. We’re taking stock of what you all need at this moment and you all have been helpful in sharing your thoughts on our BFC calls and 1:1s. We will continue to engage you all in the planning and share more details of how we will spend our time together over the next two months.
In the meantime, please take a moment to RSVP for the convening by Friday, June 30th
Agenda COMING SOON!
