Imagine Black Reflects on the 2024 Election Results

Imagine Black would like to take a moment to acknowledge where our community is and what many of us are feeling right now. For a lot of us, this is a tough moment. We’re grieving, feeling the weight of another four years with a president who embodies fascism, racism, capitalism, imperialism, homophobia, transphobia, and sexism. It’s a gut punch, that will make it harder on us and our communities.

But in the face of injustice, Imagine Black consistently embodies its commitment to collective action and empowering Black Oregonians to engage politically. Yesterday, today, and tomorrow, we pledge to stay unwavering in our pursuit of a world where people of African descent have the rights, resources, and recognition to thrive as a resilient and interconnected community.
