Be The Village Initiative

The purpose of Be The Village Initative is to organize and support community building activities that promote black empowerment and black unity. 

We  plan on having 3 events in Summer 2016:

- Express Yourself, an oratorical contest for youth ages 6-17

- An Underground Railroad Trail Hike in Sandy Spring, MD

- #How2BeAnActivist102, a panel discussion on collective action and community mobilization in the Black community


  We do NOT receive any government funding - everything comes from the community and that's how we want to keep it.

Whatever you can give to support us is much needed and much appreciated.
