Road to Reparations in Indianapolis, honoring the legacy of Black Wall Street

Black Leaders Detroit (BLD) proudly announces the 2025 Ride for Equity: Road to Reparations, a powerful cross-country bike ride designed to raise awareness and support for Black entrepreneurs. 

Launching May 31, 2025, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, this five-week journey will pass through Indianapolis and conclude at Wall Street in New York City near Independence Day.

As part of the national tour, the ride will significantly stop in Indianapolis, Indiana, a city deeply committed to fostering equity and inclusive economic opportunity. The journey will officially launch from the 16 Tech Innovation District, bringing together cyclists, changemakers and supporters nationwide to “move for the movement” and amplify the call to close the racial capital gap.
