About the Organization:
Million Hoodies Movement for Justice is a human rights membership organization founded in the wake of the murder of Trayvon Martin. Our mission is to build next generation human rights leaders to end anti-black racism and systemic violence. We are home to a national network of students and young people in nine local communities, building a movement for human dignity and democracy.
Our members have stopped the criminalization of Black youth from wearing hoodies in public spaces, pushed back efforts to defund HBCUs and other minority serving institutions in North Carolina, launched a sanctuary fund to provide services and support to undocumented students, and brought Million Hoodies to the classroom to teach undergraduate college students about the prison industrial complex.
2017 is going to be a big year for us as we grow our organization. We're looking for a detail-oriented individual to join our national team to strengthen our core operations and backend administration.
