Our MISSION

The Black Equality Coalition promotes the advancement and well-being of African Americans in the King County region through empowerment and partnership, strengthening African American communities through education, mentoring, and community connections.

Why we exist

African Americans in King County, WA are subjected to systemic, disproportionate racial discrimination in all key sectors of society, compounded with institutional sanctioned policies, practices and historical trauma that continues to negatively impact the stability and growth of the Black community in this present day. King County’s The Race Gap Report (2020) acknowledges that the county has played a role in perpetuating the ever-widening generational inequities/inequalities targeting communities of color.
