About Black Lives Matter Utah

Changing the world

Changing the World

We know that we have a special chapter in Utah. With less than 2% black population, we know that black representation and education is needed. We are becoming a strong voice for marginalized communities in Utah.

by Every Means Necessary

We fight oppression by every means necessary. We use calling campaigns, canvassing, protests, boycotts, and lawsuits to send a clear message to racists; that their ignorance will no longer be tolerated.
