Today we're announcing Civic AF (All Facts), OLBCF's 12-episode digital series reconnecting Black Ohioans ages 25–44 to their voting power this midterm season. Premieres Juneteenth alongside our new report, The State of Black Civic Power in Ohio. #CivicAF #AllFacts #BlackOhio #OLBCF
🚨 BREAKING: The OLBCF Foundation issues a strong response to Governor DeWine’s signing of HB 96—raising urgent concerns over its impact on Black Ohioans. We’re also sounding the alarm on Trump’s so-called “Big Beautiful Bill,” which could further endanger equity and opportunity in our communities.
We demand that state lawmakers listen to the courts, the communities they serve, and the educators on the frontlines. OLBCF will continue to monitor developments in this case and advocate for policies that advance equity, fairness, and justice in Ohio’s education system.
Let’s all give Jayah a warm welcome! Drop a 👋 or a 👏 in the comments to show your support as she steps into this important leadership role.
Together, we’re ready to amplify our impact—and Jayah’s communications expertise will help us get there. 💪
This critical effort bridges the gap between local and state voices, ensuring that Black Ohioans are heard and their needs are reflected in the legislation shaping our futures.
Special thanks to our event partners, and everyone who came out to stand in community.
🖤💛❤️
OLBCF President Shayla L. Davis spoke about the importance of Black unity and highlighted the Foundation’s current work on the State of Black Ohio Report.
What we know: national reporting states FBI agents raided the Cleveland offices of the Ohio Organizing Collaborative, a nonpartisan voter registration org, and visited homes of staff and volunteers statewide. Federal officials have not commented. We will share verified facts as they develop.
We recently gathered in Cincinnati for a powerful Juneteenth Happy Hour—a moment to celebrate our freedom and recommit to the work ahead.
Follow us for more updates.
Remember: we must unify and stay in the fight.
