What does it mean to imagine beyond systems designed against us? 🌍

Liberation starts with imagination. Before we can build something new, we have to give ourselves permission to picture it — a world where our communities aren't surviving despite the system, but thriving because we built a better one.

That kind of imagining isn't naive. It's the first act of resistance, and the blueprint for everything that comes next.

So we want to hear from you. What does freedom look like when you stop asking permission from systems that were never built for you?

Sound off below. 👇🏾

Today, we celebrate the fathers who show up — present, providing, and pouring into the next generation. 💙

To every Black father braiding hair on a Sunday morning, showing up to the games, teaching the lessons, and loving out loud: we see you, we honor you, and we thank you.

Your presence is a legacy. Happy Father’s Day. 🤍

Juneteenth is more than a commemoration of freedom delayed. It is a reminder that freedom is not self-executing—it requires vigilance, action, and collective responsibility.

On June 19, 1865, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed, enslaved Black people in Galveston, Texas learned they were free. The distance between emancipation and liberation tells an important truth: progress is not always immediate, and justice is not always guaranteed.

As we honor Juneteenth, we also honor the generations of Black leaders, organizers, advocates, and community members who have continued the work of turning freedom into opportunity, equity, and self-determination.

At PSE, we know that the pursuit of justice continues—in our communities, our institutions, and our policies. From economic inclusion and health equity to climate justice and civic participation, our work is rooted in the belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive.

Today, we celebrate the resilience, brilliance, and contributions of Black communities while recommitting ourselves to building a future where freedom is not just remembered, but fully realized.

Happy Juneteenth.

The fight for racial equity is the fight for humanity. 🤎

White supremacy and anti-blackness aren’t about individuals or skin color — they’re worldviews. Worldviews that rank human value, concentrate power, and normalize inequality. They teach us to choose extraction over stewardship, domination over reciprocity, competition over community, fear over love, and profit over people.

But we can choose differently.

The progress of our democracy has always been bound to Black freedom. The more our systems exclude Black voices, the further we drift from the democracy we claim to be. So this work was never just about race — it’s about the kind of world we decide to build together. One rooted in dignity. Stewardship. Love.

When we fight for Black freedom, we expand freedom for everyone.

Join us. ✊🏾

This is what collective action looks like in real time.

Our coalition showed up — and we showed up together. This is what happens when we stop waiting and start organizing. A major win doesn’t come from one voice; it comes from all of us, side by side, refusing to back down.

This is people working towards liberation. This is solidarity. This is just the beginning.

Today is Election Day.

Our vote is how we realize our shared values as a city — how we turn what we believe into what we build. It’s our voice, and our chance to take part in shaping the place we call home.

Every ballot is a statement about the kind of community we want to be. So show up. Bring a friend, a neighbor, a family member. Make your voice count.

Polls are open today — find your polling place, check your times, and cast your vote. This is our moment. Let’s meet it together.

Our vote is how we realize liberation. Period.

Our vote is how we take back control — how we say, clearly and together, what we believe in and what matters most to us. It’s our voice when too often we’ve been told to stay quiet. It’s how we shape the future of our communities, our families, and the generations coming after us.

Today we stood together in faith and in action. Prayer moves us, but action carries us forward — and our vote is where the two meet.

A heartfelt thank you to the for helping host this Day of Prayer and Action at the State Capitol. Your partnership, your leadership, and your unwavering commitment to justice made today possible.

Let’s keep showing up. Let’s keep speaking up. And let’s never forget — our vote is how we make change

The truth that people don’t want to talk about? Poor Black people voted so that we could have the Atlanta that we have today.
