Since we as African-Americans are not included to the degree necessary in the curriculum of the established educational system, and because we are convinced that we will not be sufficiently included any time soon, we must have events outside of and apart from the established educational system to educate African-Americans (children and adults) into the positive knowledge of themselves.

This is our MISSION.
More simply stated, it is to bring African historical greatness to the conscious awareness of Blacks and all Americans so that the esteem of our African race will forever be heightened.’
This will cause African-American people to become much more self-reliant, as opposed to continuing to look to others for even their basic needs. We must take our rightful place among the leaders of the world for the benefit of the world.
Join us on this most worthwhile mission so that we and our children will not have to live with the atrocities of psychological slavery in the Twenty-first Century or at any time ever again.
