About Us
Helping Our Community Shine Brighter
When we launched My Black Colorado in 2018, we learned that turning an idea into a legacy, takes time, money and a lot of other ingredients.
So we made it easier for ourselves and started creating a system and developed partners that made our work more effecient and effective.
On top of that, most that do have the resources, can have a hard time finding effective, sustainable solutions to help celebrate thier local communities, and create a legacy
My Black City is everything we wished we could find when we started on this journey to celebrate our local black communities.
With My Black City, we get all the benefits of launching your own publication, without any of the setup costs, paperwork, our daunting administrative tasks associated with it. You don’t need to know the ‘right people. All you need is a passion to make a difference, and to reach out to us.
“Every great dream begins with a dreamer."
