About Us

The National Black Worker Center (NBWC) is a national organization uniting Black workers (employed, underemployed and unemployed) around the country to mobilize and provide resources needed to take on systems of oppression, including industries and policies that have benefitted from Black exploitation for generations. NBWC is the go-to source for sharing insight into the discrimination that Black workers face and amplifying solutions to end anti-Blackness in the workplace.
