                "description": "We Go High is a leadership and power-building movement that equips Black women to lead systemic and structural change across civic life, education, and public policy.Our work is rooted in three pillars:Community Empowerment: Building strong neighborhoods through organizing, leadership development, and collective action.Educational Accountability: Advancing excellent education for Black children, including strong STEM pathways and parent leadership.Black Women’s Collective Power: Developing leaders who help shape the future of our communities and our state.What are the membership types?General Members stay connected, attend events, participate in trainings, and support WGH’s mission and community work.Voting Members help build the foundation of WGH, participate in leadership meetings, support committees or local hubs, and vote on key membership matters as approved by the board.Allies support WGH’s mission while respecting that WGH centers Black women’s leadership and collective power.What is a local hub?A local hub is a WGH circle of women in a city, county, neighborhood, school district, or region who build relationships, identify local priorities, and take collective action together.Why does WGH use the Sankofa bird?The Sankofa bird comes from the Akan people of West Africa. Sankofa is often understood as the wisdom of looking back to retrieve what is valuable from the past so we can move forward with clarity and purpose.For We Go High, the Sankofa bird reminds us that our future is strengthened when we honor the wisdom, struggle, leadership, and brilliance of those who came before us.It represents memory, return, learning, restoration, and forward movement.WGH uses the Sankofa bird because our work is about more than reacting to the present. We are carrying ancestral wisdom forward, building collective leadership now, and shaping a future where Black women, Black children, families, and communities can thrive.What does “Black Women. Shared Vision. Collective Power.” mean?It means WGH believes Black women already carry vision, wisdom, leadership, and power. When we come together around what we want for ourselves, our families, and our communities, we can build the relationships and organizing power needed to create change."
