Black Feminist Project
About Black Feminist Project
Rooted in the Bronx, NY, the Black Feminist Project is a community-centered organization dedicated to enriching the lives of Black women, girls, and non-men—often referred to as marginalized genders or MaGes—and the children they care for, with particular emphasis on supporting mother-led families. Founded on the belief that the very existence of Black women and their families is revolutionary, the organization creates spaces where joy and radical resistance meet. The Black Feminist Project cultivates community through direct service programming that explores how race, class, gender, and respectability politics intersect in the lives of those served. Rather than viewing participants as passive recipients of services, the organization recognizes and nurtures the leadership potential within each person, encouraging them to dare to put themselves at the center of their own universes. Operating from multiple community hubs including the Alice Fields Community Center and Black Joy Farm, the Black Feminist Project builds relationships grounded in mutual respect and shared vision. The organization's work reflects a deep commitment to restoring not just material resources, but also agency, justice, and joy to Black communities in the Bronx. Through food justice, reproductive justice, and community-building initiatives, the Black Feminist Project demonstrates that liberation is possible when Black women and non-men lead.
