Their work is rooted in a set of guiding principles:
SELF-DETERMINATION & FREEDOM
We believe that the pathway to Black liberation is to ensure that we give people the information, tools, and winning strategies to exercise self-agency, to be self-determining, and have freedom of choice to make decisions on the issues impacting our lives. Having the self-determination to fully participate in our democracy is the key to our liberation.
ALL MEANS ALL
We believe that all men and women are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. We must pursue and protect these rights.
COLLECTIVE BUYING POWER
We believe that there is power in numbers. We seek to use our buying power to fuel our voting power.
EDUCATION IS THE GREAT EQUALIZER
We believe that when you know better, you do better. We seek to educate individuals and communities on how to become better informed, engaged, and productive members of society.
