The Black Clergy Collaborative of Memphis expresses the voice of the Black Church. Founded in 2020, the Black Clergy Collaborative of Memphis is harnessing the power of the Black Church to influence decision-makers for the benefit of poverty-stricken communities in Memphis, Tennessee. The alliance of multi-denominational African American Christian churches uses its collective power to center the needs of marginalized Black Memphians and create conditions for once silenced voices to assess policies and social institutions in terms of their impact on the poor.
