BLACKLINING is an intellectual retaliation against the criminalization and exploitation of Black people. We are shedding light on the dark history of America: a history of oppressive systems built on the backs of Black people that continues to weigh them down today. We advocate for empathy and awareness of Black oppression. It is only through dismantling historic systems of oppression that we can write a future based in equity.
