“If you attend a church or live near Mulga, Adger, Long Leaf Lake, Adamsville, McCalla, Greenwood, Pipe Shop, Carriage Hills, Lake Cyrus, Edgewater, Silver Lakes, Corner, Ross Bridge, or Bessemer, inbox me.

Our communities deserve to be informed, organized, and connected.

Faith & Works and our Maps & Power initiative are building relationships with residents, faith leaders, and volunteers who care about civic engagement, fair representation, and stronger communities in Jefferson County.

If you believe churches can play a role in educating, engaging, and serving the community beyond Sunday morning, we want to connect with you.

If you live in one of these communities and want to volunteer, help organize, or learn more about our Fair Maps and ReVote work, inbox me.

We’ve got work to do.”

Yesterday, Faith & Works (ReVote Black Church Community Voter Project) showed up in Montgomery and Selma for the All Roads Lead to the South festival alongside people from across this country who understand what’s at stake in this moment.

I’m especially grateful to our team and to our Co-Founder Lamar Black, who helped organize our volunteers and ensured we were present, prepared, and engaged. Thank you to everyone who traveled, marched, listened, connected, and stood in solidarity.

But now comes the real question: what’s next?

White supremacy, Anti-Black Advocates(wickedness in high places) has a long-term strategy. They organize. They fund their agenda. They stay committed to it. Whether it’s Project 2025, rolling back voting rights, silencing Black voices, or diluting Black political power, they move with evil intention.

So now it’s time for us to get to work with the same level of commitment, discipline, and vision, but with love, justice, and liberation in mind.

We cannot only gather in moments. We must build infrastructure, train leaders, organize our communities, protect our votes, and create a strategy that lasts beyond one rally, one election, or one headline. We are answering that call with our ReVote Black Church Community Voter Project.

The work continues. And we’re ready. Thank you to for trusting our team and providing us with a mini-grant. Groundwork supports local community organizers in places where the fight isn’t over one candidate or one election but over the survival of American democracy itself. From the Deep South to Appalachia and the Plains: GWP shows up in the states too often written off and invests in the local leaders working year-round to secure justice, equity, and democracy for all.

Mother’s Day shouldn’t be spent behind bars.
Right now, Black mothers are sitting in jail because even though they haven’t been convicted, they unfortunately can’t afford bail.
We’re raising $100,000 to bring them home AND support them with guaranteed income.

Hey family! Sharing details for actions at the State House for the rest of the week.

In a 6-3 decision in Louisiana v. Callais, the Supreme Court significantly weakened Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, limiting its application to cases with proof of intentional racial discrimination rather than just discriminatory effects. Almost immediately following Governor Kay Ivey moved to draw new congressional districts.

Faith and Works Collective, along with numerous other organizations, are in Montgomery to fight back against this injustice! To follow along, stay tuned to our stories for real time updates and ways to get involved.
