Colorofchange.org works to strengthen the voice of black americans and increase the level of accountability and responsiveness of elected officials to underrepresented black constituencies using the internet as a lobbying and communications tool.

Programs

3 programs

Culture and media engagement:color of change played a unique and effective role in transforming the impact of media in america by focusing on systemic change in the areas where we can have the most influence. We position ourselves in between media producers and the harmful media vehicles they would create by disrupting the chain of production that allows harmful media content to exist in the first place. At the same time, we push back and work to take existing harmful content off the air while supporting and promoting complex, humanizing, and varied portrayals of people of color.

Expenses: $685K

Criminal justice:over the past year, color of change has led partners across the country - organizers, lawyers, policy experts, and communicators - to continue to hold prosecutors accountable and accelerate prosecutor reform on a national level. In 2020 in particular we pushed for legislation and policy change to move towards decarceration including decriminalizing poverty and stopping unnecessary prosecutions.
