Over the last six years, the Black Freedom Fund (BFF) has expanded its reach as a support system for California’s Black-serving organizations, providing a boost to many groups that could be locked out of funding as federal government and corporate diversity spending has dried up.

The BFF, originally founded as a five-year initiative, is now a permanent organization and benefactor to over 150 organizations this year, according to the organization’s website.

A judge has denied a motion to compel the deposition of Tyler Perry filed by an actor who accuses the filmmaker of sexual assault and battery, given that Perry has already agreed to be deposed later this year.

In a final ruling issued Monday, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Brock Hammond wrote that there were no grounds to grant plaintiff Mario Rodriguez’s request. “The motion lacks merit,” the judge wrote.
