WCWM : Who’s Coming With Me is a unity movement dedicated to supporting Black artists, businesses, and youth. WCWM uses the power of cooperative economics and familyhood (ujamaa) as tools to reduce crime and violence within our communities.

WCWM promotes #PutYourMoneyWhereYourMelaninIs as a way of life and an educational mantra for Black people to invest into Black solutions. We produce directories, events, merch, and films to make this practice more accessible for us all.

We believe that when we build strong relationships and economic power within our communities, we can interdependently create and implement solutions so that we can all thrive.
