[amour-jee-noir]
1. To centre the lived experiences of Black women, girls and gender diverse people and combat anti-Black gender-based violence.
2. A call to action that uses love to disrupt mysogynoir and counter the systemic hatred against Black women, girls, gender diverse & trans people.
Black women, girls, gender diverse & trans (B-WGGDT) people are always at the forefront of social justice resistance and activism. This movement is no different.
Canada has yet to reach gender and racial equity. It continues to ignore its colonial and patriarchal histories, resulting in ongoing violence, especially towards Black communities, many of which have existed on these lands for centuries.
We have developed The Amourgynoir Code to be a social movement, a framework, a promise, and a revolution.
Black Love: Learn it, Live it.
A movement is as strong as its people.
And boy do we have people. There are many incredible Black activists, community organizers, and grassroots organizations who are doing incredible things across Canada. It's time to turn the spotlight on to these local powerhouses.

The Code & Framework
This is the very first movement of its kind to centre Black women, girls, gender diverse & trans (B-WGGDT) at the intersection of gender, race, sexuality, class and ability in Canada. There is currently no national data on anti-Black gender based violence (aBGBV) and hate that targets Black women, girls, gender diverse & trans people(B-WGGDT) in Canada.
We have developed a code and a framework to help guide this movement towards our goal of eradicating violence against B-WGGDT.
The Amourgynoir Code is the first framework to disrupt misogynoir.
When you support a movement, you help to change the world.
