The Impact Movement

From the Marquette directory, Sep 7, 2026

Who are we? Your local Impact chapter is a place where you can be with other Black college students and make connections, grow spiritually, and pursue justice for our community together. We are a community where every student involved in Impact is challenged to enthusiastically embrace and critically understand their ethnic identity as integral to the ministry of the Gospel on campus, in the community, and throughout the world. Weekly Discipleship Groups (Starting the week of September 21st) This year, we will have weekly discipleship group where you can bond and create lasting relationships with our Black Marquette students, explore what the Bible has to say about topics like racial injustice, our Blackness, stewardship, doubt, suffering, a lot more. You will also grow together as leaders and students on campus. Monthly State-wide meetings with Prominent Speakers Every month, we will have speakers come and share with us their thoughts on the Gospel and Our Blackness, and we will be able to engage with them! Thought leaders like Jemar Tisby, best-selling author of the Color of Compromise: The Truth about the American Church’s Complicity in Racism, the Black women of the Truth’s Table (a psychologist, theologian, and activist) sharing with us about what the Good News (gift offered to us by God) is to Black College Students, and our CEO and President of the Impact Movement, Jimmy McGee, who is also a Marquette alum, are coming up this semester.
