The Blog of Black Thought

Living a Dream and Dreaming to Live!

Operation Reach B.L.A.C.K. is a Pan-African Blog with an acronym that stands for Building Leadership Awareness and Cultural Knowledge. The goal of this blog is to become a "Blog of Black Thought" focusing on matters of social, economic and political awareness through education (re-education), self-affirmation and cultural expression. In doing so, it will invite a cross-reference of black intellectuals to grapple with historic and contemporary black issues. Above all, this blog will DEMAND respect and appreciation for one another as black men and women.

This blog focuses on Pan-African issues, however, it also welcomes and anticipates the participation of activists regardless of color, nationality or religion. Operation Reach B.L.A.C.K. is born of a grassroots, bottom-up, philosophy of political engagement whereby ordinary people are encouraged to do extraordinary things. Therefore, Operation Reach B.L.A.C.K. strives for unity, understanding and empowerment in the hopes that the black community may overcome its petty differences to work together for upward mobility.
