Building a Future of Cooperative Economics

September 18 - 20, 2025

The Assembly of Black Possibilities is a biennial national convening for solidarity economy practitioners. Together, with the Boston Ujima Project, we’ll build new systems, in real time, with and for our communities.

Our Mission in Motion

We catalyze economic justice by shifting capital, power, and the culture of finance toward liberation and generational wealth in Black communities.

Reparative Finance

We design and support trust-based capital strategies that build community wealth.

Power Building

We synchronize community ecosystems toward justice and agency.

Shifting the Culture

We transform finance culture through narrative, training, and education.
