D’FRANTZ SMART

Black queer community organizer committed to the liberation of all Black people. Through cycling, I am working to transform the physical and mental health, economy, and local environment of our communities as a way to build a society where we can all thrive. I am the founder of the BLK Bike Panel & Summit, a space for Black cyclist to connect and discuss collective efforts to get more black people riding. As a lead organizer for 2WheelGods, a collective of cyclists in Chicago creating POC centered rides and building a cyclable community, I ride to liberate and heal myself and my community.
