BM4F is on a mission to ensure that Black folk avoid exposure to lead from drinking water. Although the water in Flint was first contaminated in 2014, the fight for access to clean water is far from over. Discussion of Interest and What you Hope to Learn I Chose Black Millennials for Flint because I am interested in seeing how black people show up for themselves and their communities. Nearly 75% of the colored population are more likely to live in and or near toxic waste facilities and I am ecstatic about colored people taking the first step in the right direction of making change in their communities. I hope to learn the insides and out id this organization and how they can bring more awareness to the world.
