RENT PARTY

Help us beat this predatory debt and purchase or donate what you can!

Hey Fam,

Back in the day, when rent was due and the money was funny, the Black community had a powerful solution:

šŸŽ·Ā The Rent Party.
You’d clear the living room, turn up the music, and invite the whole block. Folks would dance, laugh, throw down on some food—and drop a little change to help each other stay afloat.
It was never charity. It wasĀ community.

And right now, we’re calling on that same spirit.
Urban Intellectuals needs to raiseĀ $15,000Ā to pay off a predatory loan that’s been holding us down—and we’re inviting you to the Rent Party.

Here’s how you can help (do 1 or all 3):

  • šŸŽ“ Buy a deck of Black History Flashcards & Games – justĀ $17 –Ā Click here to buy.
  • Ā šŸ’ Make a donation – give whatever’s in your heartĀ –Ā Click here to Donate
  • šŸ“¢Ā Share this pageĀ with someone who gets it

This isn’t just about paying a bill. It’s about keeping Black history in our hands. It’s about protecting a mission that’s educated thousands, uplifted our stories, and sparked pride across generations.

It’s also about giving us the power to keep our events, like our amazing solution-orientated Sunday Dinner FREE for you all (please do attend,Ā click here to register)!

We don’t take asking lightly. But like our ancestors taught us: when you need help, you don’t beg—you throw a Rent Party.
If you’re with us, we’d love to hear from you.

Reply to this email with a message of encouragement. Your words mean more than you know.

Join the Rent Party. Help keep this movement alive.
Love, peace, and power to the people,

– Freddie Taylor & theĀ Urban Intellectuals Team
