Community initiatives

  • HEALTH

    We want Preventative Healthcare education for Black men, women, children and all oppressed people in general. We want to develop a national health initiative that will create viable preventative health care for black and oppressed people.

    Require the American Medical Association and all its affiliates to create a comprehensive educational program for all their members about the eight major areas of health care that affect the health of Black people and to provide health care based upon holistic preventative practices and not pharmaceutical based applications.

    The same preventative health care should be implemented in all communities where health care has been marginalized.

  • SECONDARY EDUCATION

    We want to teach children how to think and not what to think - giving black and other oppressed children a sense of purpose and dignity by gaining knowledge of the historical significance of accomplishment by people on every level who look like them, that built America.

    We want children to gain real-life, practical, financial knowledge about checking, savings credit, interest rates, income taxes and investments.

    Understanding how America works financially enables our children to utilize the means of production for themselves their families and communities.

  • Higher Education

    Development of online and in-person educational, problem-solving, solution-driven forums and lectures for Community, State and public Universities.

    The teachings will concern the need to establish self-sustaining community institutions based upon historical documentation of the work of the original Black Panther Party and its implementation of 63 documented survival programs which are now part of modern-day social service programs on a national and global basis..

  • TECHNOLOGY

    Point #10 of the Ten-point platform and program of the Black Panther Party is a summation of the basic wants and needs of Black and oppressed communities towards technological advancements.

    Even though Black people have been on the cutting edge of technological development, Black people have not been given equal Technological education, career opportunities or startup funding for company capital.

    We believe the time is now to teach our children the language and positive applications of technological knowledge and how it can be used to create individual, family, community independence and wealth.

    Black and oppressed communities should have full access to technology networks to close the educational gap. We must develop our own institutions and create new and innovative media and communication networks that will connect our communities to share knowledge, innovative thinking and prosperity.
