March 2025 has been an exciting month for the Black Legacy Homeowners Network! We have been fortunate to visit Tacoma and Federal Way to meet homeowners and grow the network.
On March 22nd, we had our first meeting in Tacoma at the People’s Community Center and welcomed new members to the network. On March 23rd, we gathered for an inspiring and impactful meeting at The Royal Esquire Club. We were honored to welcome Seattle District 2 City Council Member Mark Solomon as our guest speaker. CM Solomon shared his insights on anti-displacement efforts and emphasized the importance of collective action to preserve our neighborhoods and legacy. His words resonated deeply with attendees, reinforcing the power of unity and advocacy.
On March 26th, we met at the Federal Way 320th Library and heard from homeowners from South King County. This month, we shared exciting updates from Byrd Barr Place, including valuable resources for homeowners. Attendees learned about support available for senior taxes, ADU/DADU development, and home improvement funds—tools designed to empower and sustain our community. In each room, the energy was palpable as we reaffirmed our commitment to the cause.
Together, we declared: We Are Still Here and We Shall Not Be Moved.
For those who couldn’t attend meetings this month, look out for emails about our upcoming April events!
