Unity in the Community


Folks Came out Far & Wide in Pittsburgh for the First Annual Unity in the Community Day June 14th, 2014         w/guest speaker Dr.Umar Johnson.  Dr.Umar Johnson bought down the house discussing the War on Black Boys in the
Education System.  Now more than ever, black boys are targeted & marginalized and we see a recent increase with ADHD mis-diagnosis, Special Education, School to Prison Pipeline, High Drop Out Rates, School Push Out Rates etc. 

When will it end....When we collectively come together to explore more options, strategize, organize and unify. 
When Our People are Strong Our Communities are Strong.
