2017. Valuing Black Lives Global Summit Communiqué and Call to Action
“……..The anti-Black narrative is grounded in the lie that
everything Black is inferior—Black skin, Black hair, Black culture, and Black
values. For more than 500 years, nearly every institution of Western society
has—explicitly and/or implicitly—carried the message that everything that comes
out of Africa is inferior, including its people.

Slavery in our own communities. 21st Century Slavery.
Slavery does exist in its' simplistic form. It exists in our need for shelter, water, food, for emotional and physical comfort, and drug addiction.
During times of disasters. In the local and international shelters, in the distribution of water & food, in the movement of migrants and refugees from disasters and civil unrest.
Search for events on slavery (human trafficking and sex slavery) in your community. Awareness is the first step.
