Black Legacy Advancement Coalition

Black Legacy Advancement Coalition The BLAC Coalition is a movement that builds Black power by providing education and resources.

The BLAC Coalition is a policy think tank organization, established to advance and defend African-American interests for life and legacy. Bringing some of the brightest and most diverse minds in the country together, we research the state of the black community to develop tactical strategy to empower America’s black ethos. Through strategic methodology, we work to dismantle systematic racism by cr

eating systemic change, opportunity, and equity for African-Americans. The strength of our organizing potential is in creating commissions of leaders around sectors of life that African Americans intersect, and to develop policies for those sectors that uplift the individuals and communities in ways that can be tangibly realized. In large part, the work of commissions will be: 1) adequately researching the resources provided to our states and cities, 2) cataloging them in useful ways, 3) measuring them for effectiveness and improvement, and 4) sharing them with African American populations.

🖤 THANK YOU, BLACK LEGACY DAY 2026! 🖤

What an incredible day of celebration, empowerment, culture, and community!

On behalf of the Black Legacy Advancement Coalition, we extend our deepest gratitude to every member, volunteer, sponsor, vendor, performer, partner, supporter, and friend who helped make the 2026 Black Legacy Day Celebration a tremendous success.

Because of your commitment, thousands of community members experienced a day filled with education, health resources, economic opportunities, entertainment, inspiration, and fellowship. Together, we honored our past, celebrated our present, and invested in a stronger future for generations to come.

This celebration is more than a single day—it is a reflection of what is possible when a community comes together with a shared vision of equity, opportunity, and legacy.

As we reflect on this year’s success, we are filled with gratitude and renewed determination to continue advancing the work of building healthier communities, developing leaders, supporting families, and creating pathways for lasting impact.

To everyone who attended, donated, volunteered, performed, sponsored, partnered, showed up or simply shared our mission — THANK YOU! Your support continues to fuel this movement.

“Legacy is not only what we leave behind for people. It is what we build together.”
— Dexter Sullivan, Founder, President & CEO

The work continues, and the future is bright because of all of you.

Thank you for helping us make Black Legacy Day 2026 unforgettable.
