EQUITY FOR ALL
Let’s Learn Collectively On Our Life’s Journey is a black woman-led civic engagement cohort in Minneapolis with membership across the country united to infuse underrepresented communities with much overdue equity. The weekly cohort unites social-preneurs, activists, artists, business leaders, and community stakeholders with Government to divine solutions and capitalize on opportunities to infuse equity. You’ll hear the word ‘equity’ a lot when you join L.L.C.O.O.L.J. because it is our Why.
We can tell you about compounded global disparities or how the pursuit for environmental justice is really an anti-racism effort or we can show you how to do something about it. In choosing to be solution-driven and actionary, we strive to combat barriers to critical literacy and knowledge that broadens perspectives and worldviews In short, L.L.C.O.O.L.J. is making it possible to do more and impossible to not do all one can.

Vision:
