About
“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
-Dr. Martin Luther King
The Interconnected Alchemy team brings decades of experience (lived and professional) working with communities and coalitions to build power and agency among people of the Global Majority. Black and brown communities in the U.S. continue to experience injustice at an alarming rate, from maternal mortality rates to income inequality and housing disparities.
But we know magic happens when we galvanize our collective strengths to effect change. At Interconnected Alchemy, our objective is to partner with Black and brown communities to organize, mobilize, and harness power to take our rightful place in the spaces from which we’ve been excluded.
Vision
Communities of the Global Majority* thrive and flourish unapologetically with their own self-determination to drive the transformation they seek.
Mission
Interconnected Alchemy will achieve our vision by supporting entities founded or led by People of the Global Majority to facilitate the shifting of power and the achievement of sustainable systems change.
