The Black Institute

Based in Brooklyn, The Black Institute is a community-focused organization that researches systemic injustice and takes action on policy issues affecting Black communities. It works to move research into real-world impact. The institute addresses environmental racism, economic exclusion, public education, immigration reform, and political representation. Its work includes developing information and digital literacy so community members can understand issues and participate in change.
