🌟We are thrilled to welcome Imani Dorsey to the team, Momentum Alliance’s new Co-Executive Director of Operations, Finance, & Development!🌟

Rooted in a deep passion for youth justice, Imani (she/they) brings years of diverse experience as a non-profit leader, advocate, organizer, educator, and birthworker. Through an abolition-feminist lens, Imani is driven by a commitment to our collective liberation and believes that Momentum Alliance is at the forefront of the generative, healing work necessary to build power for our communities and transform our world. She is excited to invest her capacity in the mission of a values-aligned organization and play a part in nurturing Momentum Alliance’s continued growth.

MA is celebrating its 10th anniversary! Mark the milestone and help welcome Imani with a $25 gift through the link in our bio. 🌈

Support Momentum Alliance just by grocery shopping! Through New Seasons Market’s ‘Bag It Forward’ program, bringing your own reusable bags earns a 5-cent donation per bag to MA and other community organizations.

For example, bringing 10 bags means you’ve donated 50 cents to MA without even thinking about it. If 100 people do this, that’s $50 supporting youth-led and transformative programs for QTBIPOC youth. Every bag adds up!

Need help remembering your bags? Here are two tips:
1️⃣ Keep a stash of reusable bags in your car or bike basket.
2️⃣ Hang them on your door so you grab them before heading out.

What a better way to kick off spring than shredding it up in the snow? 🏂 Thank you to our friends at for another lovely trip to Mt Hood! ❄️

Are you looking for a book club where you can be surrounded by other Black abolitionists? A book club where you only ready Black abolitionists, feminists, and radical theorists?

But it’s not pretentious and we’re here to learn and chill in a safe space?

Then Young Gifted and Black is for you! YGB is an abolition learning series that’s only for Black identifying folks from ages 16-26.

With book bans on the rise and the erasure of Black history being constant in our schools, it’s hard to know where to start. Let alone get through heavy content on your own, or with peers who don’t get it.

And did we mention it’s a paid opportunity? Keep an eye out for applications opening soon!

A huge thank you to all our amazing Give!Guide supporters this year! 💖 This was our first time in over 5 years participating, and while it was challenging, it was also incredibly rewarding. Your contributions will go directly to our emergency relief fund for youth members facing housing and food insecurity. We couldn’t do this important work without your emotional and financial support — seriously, you all make a difference! 🌟

Big thanks as well to our key partners for helping spread our message and for the incredible work you’re doing in the community. 🫶🏼 And a shoutout to Give!Guide for teaching us what it takes to run a campaign. Can’t wait to keep building together in 2025!
