The Black Youth Action Committee

The Black Youth Action Committee was established by five young Black students to address issues of policing, education, and the school-to-prison pipeline in the Charlottesville community. The BYAC advocates for community involvement in local elections and decision-making, holds mutual aid events and teach-ins, and encourages other young people to get involved in activism.
