Uhuru, Sista, and asante sana for your question and for your willingness to get down and organize with our young folks! That really should be number one on ALL our agendas, right? i sent off Bro. Majadi's question and am also waiting to send some feedblack on his last response over on "Sundiata Answers," after which i'll be sure to follow-up with your excellent expressions.

There are some groups off the radar of the churches and such like Brothas Keepa (We Are Our Brotha's Keepa) that you may like to check out, if you haven't already. Hopefully others can chime in as well with individuals/groups doing consistent work down your way that you can support or use to bounce ideas off of. Sometimes just hearing folks doing creative things can give you your own lightbulb moment that will lead to your creation of the most effective and important organization for our Black youth EVER!

So i'm saying all this to encourage you to keep on moving forward and spread your own wings, my Sista.

In my opinion their methods of trying to get them to come to church is NOT WORKING! The youth here in N.O. are not feeling that. I'm just looking for some ideas on what I could do to reach them.
