#BlackLivesMatter
The horrific murders of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd have triggered a widespread awakening to the enduring evil of racial injustice in our nation. The sudden shift in public opinion has provided a unique opportunity for the “agents of Wakanda” who are on the front lines of the fight for equity in the law enforcement and criminal justice systems. But this moment may not last long. We must urgently provide these agents with the resources they need to make the most of this opportunity. View a list of our favorite agents in this area. Let’s do this!
Our Purpose
Build the most comprehensive directory on the web of non-profit groups serving needy African American communities and rally a large online community to support them with millions of small donations.
At the conclusion of the Black Panther movie, the kingdom of Wakanda dispatches its agents into underprivileged African American communities in an effort to use its wealth of resources to uplift them. In reality, agents of good-will and empowerment are already at work in these communities. This website exists to highlight and support their efforts.
The Challenge
Donate the cost of a movie ticket to an organization uplifting an underserved African American community and encourage someone else to do the same.
The Black Panther movie grossed more than $1 Billion at the box office. Imagine what that kind of money could do in Oakland, or Baltimore, or Ferguson? If you were inspired by this movie, we challenge you to donate $12 (the average movie ticket price) to our monthly featured agent and record your donation(s) on this website to inspire others to do the same. If each of us who watched the movie contributes just the price of a movie ticket $1 billion would be infused into needy communities.
