FOR THE SOCIAL, POLITICAL, AND ECONOMIC ADVANCEMENT OF BLACK PEOPLE

MAKING OUR PROGRESS AN EASY PROCESS.

Let's face it: our community is not exactly where we want it to be, and despite our current leaders' great efforts, it seems like we are missing something. A REAL CONNECTION! Connection to the culture, the community, and our ever-changing fly nature. We are leaders, creators, and innovators, and we shouldn't have to apologize for the way the world perceives us! Apologies in the form of code-switching, changing our hair, and so much more in an attempt to make others who misunderstand us more comfortable with our existence. We are here to tell everyone the only way to change a world that views blackness as a threat is to stand BOLDLY in our identity. We are perfect just as we are, and now we have a vehicle to show that, Gifted Arts & Activism. Here, we will show that we can be exactly who we are unapologetically AND benefit our community in the process because true freedom is found in authenticity!

THE BLACK PARTY

Our initiative aims to engage and register unregistered Black voters by providing comprehensive political education and fostering unity around key community issues. Through workshops, outreach programs, and collaboration with local leaders, we empower individuals to actively participate in the democratic process and advocate for policies that directly impact their lives.
