m.youtube.com/watch?v=LhkeMsAyt7UAmazingly the Madhubutis have several schools in Chiraq, all attained and maintained w/o huckstering. Parents and concerned community believed in them enough to fund operations as did the Madhubutis 'profits' from 3rd World Press etc. Tried, true, and proven. Never allegations of fraud in 40 some years of educating young impressionable black minds w/o profanity, misogyny, racial enmity, or less than role model behaviors. Based on a system of ethics and values, the 7 Principles. Community really want a school offering quality education, respect of student's home environment culture, de-emphasis of nonsense, violence, $$$ draining fashion fads? Your group of concerned parents et al can always contact Haki and Safisha for advice (or the legitimate corporation and tax documents of their schools). Ask 'em for a copy of one of their parent handbooks. I urge caution only out of concern in these very unique times The 'righteous brother' begging passersby for 'movement money' happened back in the 60s and 70s too. Very few fell for it then, though those w/o memory, or know about it w/o consulting those who actually lived through it, will get fleeced by predators using blackness as bait. anyone who has collected almost three-quarters of a million dollars from black people should be vetted
To date, no one has seen financial documentation showing • how much money he has collected, or • how he has used any of the funds. • No one has seen a business plan, • an application for accreditation or anything tangible that indicates he is making strides toward this so-far mythical school.
link Many are called few are chosen You got to be ware of the wolf in sheep clothin
Better to donate to the legal team defending Gnawa Mauritanians from deportation to certain torture, slavery, or death. Yes, while the Gubment was shut down, the USChump used his own money to fly law abiding even business success refugees from slavery back into slavery in Mauritania, all the while condemning Mauritania for slavery.

Al-takuri said:[ Me? OK, I forget the 'social media' driven mentality of the times.] Yes that's exactly it, the "old" upper and middle class Black or struggling class folks, are no longer that influential,new media rulez !! else bookstores that caters to the community would not be in jeopardy of shutting down, as to the entertainers who might be "woke" they have the advantage of the mega phone, when was the last time something said from one of our traditional intellectual went " viral ".. Judging from the response it seems like Killa Mike's POV of setting up neighbourhood schools that caters to Black kids up to age 13 carried the day rather than majority "good white" schools, where the education is good but the racism is bad. BTW Urban Prep is yet to be mass produced the template is there already all they have to do is stay true to their creed/goals true they have problems at one of their charters. The Revolution May not be Televised.. But you can catch it on Instagram , Tweeter or YouTube. There have been scores of black private schools over the decades- some straight private, some religious, some activist based/Afrocentric, some old skool/uplift types like well known Marva Collins out of Chicago. If independent black schools can promote the sterling values- discipline, hard work, appreciation of black history and mastery of the academic content needed to move ahead or maintain ground in the society, then more power to them. Other minorities are using a "dual track" strategy. Both Asians and Jews for example take maximum advantage of available public education. But when the school bell rings, the Asians head off to their hard-nosed afternoon "cram" schools that are moving them steadily ahead, and Jews not only enjoy the full range of tutoring and private "prep" school options, but on the younger side, maintain a robust network of Jewish day-schools that promote Jewish culture and history- all without compromising the academics performances. In other words they are working the public system profitably, while maintaining their own successful parallel, or supplementary systems. One factor sadly missing in many black communities is the discipline needed to break out of the box. African immigrants, West Indian immigrants/immigrant background and old skool Afro-Americans with their almost religious dedication to education show what can be dome and what is needed. But you will not get popular talking about such things. Aside from the usual "street" unpopularity, you have a would-be "smart set" that these days dismisses the Afrocentric old heads and hands- the people who insist on discipline and effort- as too "patriarchal" and so on, for the "new" black education.

Black American descendents of the Maafa are a very unique set of ethnic groups whose histories and cultures are not comparable to any other components of USA or other western hemisphere countries. African immigrants from the last few decades situations differ vastly from Maafa descendants. Only MD's can correctly and effectively solve the problems they face. No others have an American Black Experience though they might all be a part of a Global Black Experience. Blacks have been enslaved by nearly all other peoples. Atlantic and SW Indian Ocean Africans never took pains to enslave extra-continentals. Blacks problems are internal. Black solutions are internal. Those who made our problems are not peoples to imitate. They are human we are human Nothing human is alien to us -- Terence Afer We can do what we have the will -- Marcus Garvey We can think as better as most can. Black excellence is proved by academic records of Continental Jungle Monkeys in GB & USA. The Black Panther Party for Self-defense originated daycare pre-school and freebreakfast programs later co-opted by the Fed and others, iinm. atlantablackstar.com/2015/03/26/8-black-panther-party-programs-that-were-more-empowering-than-federal-government-programs/As previously seen, MD's self schooling for children is old and varies by ethnicity. Black Muslims were first. Nguzo Saba Afrikans last. Independently financed, answerable to no outsiders. Now your MD's who don't see themselves as anything other than Americans in black are working the charter system. Good! All viable options welcome. Some think the school2prison American public school system can be healed. Not probable but good luck with that anyway. But why throw away $$$ for a single solitary unaccountable one-day-my-prince-will-come non-existant boys only boarding school when there are already many independents and charters already in operation and they need $$$. Parents and investors serious about alts to public school will do their homework. The lackadaisical? Well? God won't even help ya if u don't help yourself. The gullible? Get woke! You'll pay heavily for sleeping/dreaming.

Blacks have the solutions to Black problems. Many blacks place no confidence in Black problem solvers. They'd turn to anyone but themselves.
Without non-cyclic external funding and without SocialMedia (use every tool available but be wary) serious dedicated Blacks accomplished nation building objectives.
The Black Americans have set aside no day in memorial to those who gave their lives for betterment of the Black Americans.
Small wonder only a handful are pledged to Black Empowerment.
They all know all about a fictional Black Panther. Ask a random Black on the street about a Panther school and they'll say yeah its over in Wakanda.

The Story of Dr. El Senzengakulu Zulu
Founder & Director of Ujamaa School
Father of Independent Afrikan Schools in the USA
Dr. Zulu worked closely with leaders of civil rights movement such as • Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., • Medgar Evers, • James Forman, • Andrew Young, • Kwame Toure, • H Rap Brown, • Marion Barry, and • Fannie Lou Hammer.
He worked along side others throughout the south to help organize the Freedom Rides. ... the racist governor of Mississippi arrested El Zulu and other participants resulting in six months imprisonment in Parchman Prison in maximum security. During the 60’s Baba Zulu was arrested 69 times for the liberation struggle of Afrikan people.
... politically and socially, they began to participate in direct action against racism. This resulted in 113 students being expelled from school. The responsibility for teaching these students fell to those who were organizing. Therefore, the Freedom Schools were developed. From this it was clear that there was a need for our people to create another educational system.
This was the beginning of Dr. Zulu's thoughts to open up his own school because he knew that at some point we had to open up our schools to teach our own history.

cont. While attending Howard University Law School, Dr. Zulu received a call from James Forman, Executive Secretary of SNCC, requesting his help with the Selma, Alabama Crisis. He went to the White House as a SNCC representative along with H. Rap Brown, NAG; Walter Fauntory, SCLC; The Urban League and others. This visit was to urge the president to send troops to protect the people during the civil rights demonstrations in Alabama In 1966 he organized the freedom schools in DC in order to help our youth with reading, writing and their history. In January of 1968 The Ujamaa Afrikan Shop was opened to build a financial basis for an independent Afrikan community school.
On May 4, 1968 Ujamaa School opened with 3 students in preschool and added a grade each year up through high school. Ujamaa School is an ungraded school system. He chose that system because it allowed him to move students according to their ability. Ujamaa School is the first and oldest Afrikan independent school in the USA. In the last 40 years many students have graduated from high school, some as early as age 14. The majority of the students who graduated went on to receive honors and degrees from major universities. Some have returned to teach at the school. Many of our graduates now have families of their own and have chosen to send their children to Ujamaa. www.ujamaaschool.net/about-us
