Why: The National Coalition on Black Civic Participation’s Black Women’s Roundtable (BWR) will honor “Women’s History Month” by hosting its 13th Annual BWR Women of Power National Summit (BWR Summit ’24) and bringing together Black women leaders and allies from across the nation and internationally for five (5) impactful days to share and strategize on high-impact public policy priorities and develop organizing and empowerment plans to lift and improve the lives of Black and underserved women, girls and families. The BWR Summit comes as the Black community continues to harness, activate and own its political power during the 2024 primaries and general election. The gathering will bring together hundreds of Black women leaders and allies who are on the frontlines of organizing, advocating, and serving the community all while withstanding ongoing threats to our rights, freedoms, health, economic security and representative democracy.

As we continue to endure and overcome these threats, this year’s BWR Summit ‘24 theme, “Owning Our Power!” embodies the summit’s mission to energize and leverage the collective and individual power of Black women and girls. The Summit will focus on amplifying the intergenerational power and voices of Black women, continuing to recognize their historic role in shifting political power, and inspiring all women and girls to reach new levels of leadership in advocacy, business, and elected office.

Melanie L. Campbell, President & CEO, NCBCP and Convener of the Black Women’s Roundtable states, “I could not think of a more appropriate summit theme, Owning Our Power! Black women have an unprecedented opportunity to help, Protect our rights and freedoms, Preserve our history, Promote diversity and democracy and to Participate by voting!” Campbell continues, “As we face an unprecedented time in our nation’s history, we are also confronted by an unprecedented opportunity. This gathering will serve as an multi-generational platform to demonstrate the collective power of the Black vote! Our message is clear, we are owning our power and we will not be erased!”
