Reparations Zine
Our Reparations Zine is a radical call to action, built from the wisdom and experiences of Black and Brown families fighting back against the violence of child welfare. Through participatory research, we’ve gathered stories, art, and community-driven visions for repair that challenge the systems designed to harm us. This zine isn’t just about imagining a world free from punishment—it’s about building one. It’s about rejecting carceral logic and centering the voices of those most impacted to demand justice, healing, and the reparations we are owed. Together, we dismantle, rebuild, and reclaim.
Read Our Report!
After a year of dedicated research, planning, and community engagement, we are proud to present our Reparations Report. This report is the result of rigorous analysis, historical examination, and thoughtful recommendations aimed at advancing reparative justice for Black families. Through data-driven insights and firsthand accounts, we highlight the lasting impact of systemic inequities and outline actionable steps toward meaningful restitution.
At B.L.U., we believe in transforming advocacy into action, and this report serves as both a roadmap and a call to action for policymakers, institutions, and community members committed to justice. Join us as we push forward in the fight for reparations and equity.
