The Mahogany Project

The Mahogany Project The Mahogany Project is a collective of black q***r men that serve to tell the stories of other black q***r men.

The mission of The Mahogany Project is:


To facilitate a dialogue that will focus on issues surrounding the black gay community, which promotes internal healing and a conversation on how to overcome and move on as a collective unit. To link the objectification of the black male body to the stratification of our community through a series of monologues. The intent is to highlight years of social

oppression from those in power and benefiting from privilege outside the black community and even within. To utilize prose and poetry (which serve as a cornerstone of our community) to inspire a new generation of social activists, ignite a legion of martyrs to speak up and out about imbalances in our society and community, and invigorate passionate members of the black gay community to take action. To start a healing process for those within the black gay community that addresses years of unspoken hurt, fear, anxiety, and distrust through the commonality of the monologues with their experiences.
