BHBC: I want to join your Black History Bootcamp but can't walk at that time. Am I allowed to walk at a different time?

YES.  Although we believe in the power of Black women shifting the atmosphere when we are all walking at the same time all over the world, we do understand that commitments don't allow it at times.  We understand.  Walk at a later time if you must.

October 2020, a million Black women (claim it!) will cover the streets of America in prayer. We will do it together through a “walking podcast” called Black History Bootcamp, The Prayer Edition.  

We will seek God’s face before we launch our new global agenda to increase the life expectancy of Black women by 10 years in 10 years. All of this, just days before the most pivotal presidential election of our lifetimes.  It will change the atmosphere. Please share this immediately.  All are welcome.

 Sign up and be counted here.

The Prayer Edition is the final installment of #BlackHistoryBootCamp in 2020. It follows the Acts of Resistance edition that celebrated powerful acts of resistance in Black culture and season one, which focused on legendary and revolutionary Black women in history like Audre Lorde, Shirley Chisholm, Georgia Gilmore and Nina Simone. The #BlackHistoryBootCamp has been GirlTrek’s most successful walking campaign to date with more than 100,000 participants.

The #BlackHistoryBootCamp podcast has exceeded half a million downloads and has been covered by  Vogue,  one of the largest online media outlet in Brazil and NPR.
