dear friend and family Just a reminder....We look forward to you joining us at the office of Black Classic Press, Tuesday February 23 at 7:30, as our guest Mwangaza Bandele shares about the work of The International Black Summit. The address for BCP is listed below. The International Black Summit is scheduled to meet in Baltimore in August. Black folks from around the country and the world will be in town exploring and creating possibility for themselves and our community. There truly are few places you can find this type of conversation with participation from so many thinkers and doers. The Summit Share is an opportunity to find out more about the Black Summit prior to the August meeting. I'm excited about this chance for Baltimore/ Washington to welcome so many positive brothers and sisters as we as we each one teach one before,during and after the Summit. I hope you will find the time and join us. I've attached a link to the IBS, and the Declaration of the Summit below. Please send an email or call me at 410-242-6954 to let me know you are coming. light refreshments begin at 7 followed by the Share. http://blacksummit.ning.com/ DECLARATION OF THE International Black Summit WE DECLARE ourselves, our community, and all communities whole and complete. There is nothing to do except be. WE ASSERT that we are responsible for generating community as possibility and distinction. We listen for and grant being to the possibility and creation of unpredictable results. Our conversation of, about, and for those of African descent is one of power, self generation, abundance, responsibility, unity and integrity, with the possibility of being. WE STAND for the expression of our spirituality; ending the murders of our men, women and children; building economies responsible for funding our community; maintaining wellness of being in our bodies; providing human services; establishing nurturing relationships; altering the conversation of who we are in the media; empowering our youth. WE DECLARE that our community manifests itself in the world as a contribution in the transformation of the universe.
