ABOUT US

We Can’t Breathe Inc. aims to eradicate all forms of police violence and address traumatic experiences through local and global education, community discussions, and advocacy for policy changes.

Established in 2018 after the tragic events involving Eric Garner and Erica Garner, We Can’t Breathe Inc. was founded with a commitment to combating police brutality and its lasting impact on families like the Garners'. The motto "We Can't Breathe" symbolizes our collective resistance against state oppression and our demand to live free from harm caused by anti-blackness. We stand united in the fight for Black liberation, leveraging our firsthand experiences to address community challenges early with tailored services and support.

As the Children of the Movement, we have endured loss, coming together to end police brutality and heal from its effects. We champion transformation towards healthy and promising futures for ourselves and generations to come.

Our work is grounded in the belief that every individual deserves to live in a world free from the fear of violence and oppression. We are dedicated to amplifying the voices of those who have been silenced and ensuring that their stories lead to meaningful change.

Through our diverse programs and initiatives, we aim to create a ripple effect that transcends borders, inspiring others to join the fight for justice.

We engage with policymakers, community leaders, and global activists to foster an environment where true safety and equality can flourish.
