National Black Justice Coalition

Discrimination & Civil Rights · Tennessee · Free

Civil rights organization dedicated to empowering Black LGBTQ+ people. A starting point for documentation BEFORE escalation; report contemporaneously even if you don't file yet. Free initial intake calls usually last 30–60 min; have a timeline of events ready. Documenting incidents in writing the same day they happen makes any later claim much stronger. No cost — the program is grant-funded and confidentiality-protected.
