i
End Qualified Immunity
The doctrine that shields state violence from consequence has to go. We organize, educate, and press until it does.
Black Lives Matter Grassroots · Miami
Of the People, Accountable to the People.
An official chapter of Black Lives Matter Grassroots — rooted in Miami, standing with the movement. Member-led. Abolitionist. Boots on the ground.
Our Mandate
End state-sanctioned violence —
in all its forms.
ii
Stand With Justice Families
Alongside the Building Bridges Coalition, we stand post for families the system tried to bury — including the fight to Free Karmelo.
iii
Of the People
No saviors, no figureheads. The chapter is member-led, and the work answers to the community it serves.
The Ground We Hold
This is Black Miami.
This is 33150.
Sacred ground, and contested ground. The first Black suburb of Miami — and the ground they keep trying to take.
Liberty Square & African Square Park
Where the community gathers, grieves, and organizes.
Historic Hampton House
The bookers of Black Miami’s golden age walked these halls.
Millionaire’s Row · NW 67th St
Black wealth built this street — we intend to keep it.
The Race Wall · NW 12th Ave
A monument in paint to the ones who ran before us.
Illustrative — a constellation, not a map. The ground is real; the drawing is a tribute. Walk the ground →
The Crux
Four fronts in the fight
for Black Miami.
Liberation is not abstract. In Miami-Dade it has an address, a price, and a tideline. These are the fronts we hold.
Economic & Reparative Justice
“The debt is owed.”
From the wealth stripped across centuries to the wages stolen last week — we organize for an economy that pays what it owes Black Miami.
Pillars i · vii
Environmental Gentrification & Rising Seas
“Higher ground is ours.”
Climate capital is coming for the high ground Black Miami has held for generations. The land and the sea are both battlegrounds — we hold the line on both.
Pillar iii
Gentrification, Writ Large
“We will not be moved.”
Overtown. Liberty City. Little Haiti. The method changes — the developers’ renderings, the tax liens, the buyouts — but the answer doesn’t: we will not be moved.
Pillar iii
Black Political Power
“Self-determination.”
Power built from the block up — civic education, community organizing, and a people that governs itself. No candidates, no endorsements: the people are the platform.
The Program
Nine pillars.
One mandate.
The charter of our work — nine commitments, each beginning where Black Miami begins: with us. The fronts are where we fight; the pillars are what we build.
Pillar i
Engendering Economic Parity and Demanding Lineage-Based Reparations for Black Americans.
We organize for an economy where Black Americans hold what they build — workshops, mentorship, and capital know-how for Black small business, and public education that names the debt plainly: lineage-based reparations, owed and overdue.
Pillar ii
Ending Qualified Immunity and Protecting Black American Lives from State-Sanctioned Violence.
We work to end qualified immunity and every shield that lets state violence go unanswered — know-your-rights education, public pressure, and policy advocacy that puts Black life beyond the reach of the badge.
Pillar iii
Eradicating Environmental Displacement and Systemic Gentrification of Historically Black Communities.
We fight the forces pushing Black Miami off its own ground — tenant-rights education, heir-property literacy, and organizing against the displacement machine, from the developers’ maps to the rising sea.
Pillar iv
Educating and Edifying Black Children in STEAM and A&M.
We build the pipeline our children deserve — after-school and weekend STEAM and arts-and-media programs, mentors in the room, and a hard line against every practice that feeds Black youth to the prison system.
Pillar v
Enriching Black Families and Ensuring Black Maternal Justice.
We stand with Black mothers and Black families — maternal-health education, care navigation, and organizing for a world where bringing Black life into this world is not a risk.
Pillar vi
Eliminating Nutrition Deserts and Food Apartheid while Improving Accessibility to Resources.
Pillar vii
Enabling Gainful Employment Creation by Black American Small Businesses.
We build Black employment by building Black business — small-business clinics, procurement and capital navigation, and buy-Black education that keeps the dollar circulating in our community.
Pillar viii
Erasing 13th Amendment-Enshrined Enslavement and Reversing the Schools-to-Prison Pipeline.
We teach the truth of the 13th Amendment’s exception clause and organize to erase enslavement from the Constitution — while pulling our children out of the schools-to-prison pipeline and into classrooms that see them.
Pillar ix
Endorsing Home and Property Ownership thus inviting Black Americans into the American Dream.
Lineage
We stand on the shoulders
of those who would not bow.

The Chapter
An official chapter of
BLM Grassroots.
Rooted in Miami, standing with the movement — a close comrade of Black Lives Matter Grassroots Florida, in coalition with the E5 Enclave coalition.
We state our independence in our own words: we do not associate with the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation. Black Lives Matter Grassroots is the organization — never a foundation, never theirs.
