About Black Youth Project

The Black Youth Project serves as a comprehensive research and content platform dedicated to understanding the attitudes, perspectives, and lived experiences of Black Americans ages 18-30. Based in Chicago, IL, the organization conducts rigorous survey research and produces high-quality, engaging content that examines critical domains including politics, health, sexuality, and civic engagement among young Black millennials. The platform functions as a dynamic space where Black youth can authentically share their voices on issues that matter most to them, without censorship or external control. Through its three-pillar approach of Knowledge, Voice, and Action, the Black Youth Project delivers empirical data and cultural insights that inform both academic understanding and community-driven change. The organization collaborates closely with BYP 100, its activist partner, to translate research findings into direct community engagement and positive social impact. Serving the Chicago area and reaching audiences nationally, the Black Youth Project stands as a preeminent research body providing survey respondent data, cultural analysis, and multimedia content that captures the diversity and complexity of the Black millennial generation. The platform highlights emerging voices, contemporary issues, and the decision-making processes that shape young Black Americans' approaches to politics, relationships, health, and social participation.
