oRganizational intent

Why it matters: Based on key historical events, the Black community is well positioned as the load bearing society on civil rights and the forward-facing image of social advancement. Black men act as the frontline defense system against white supremacy. BMN operates in an environment defined by significant, well-documented disparities that necessitate a coordinated, data-driven response.

Factual Basis of Disparity: In the DMV, Black households face the largest negative disparities in income, unemployment, and poverty, with the Black median household income being less than 33% of that of their White counterparts in some areas. Nationally, Black men are underrepresented in professional and leadership roles. This is not happenstance; it is the result of systemic inequities that our legal system has a duty to address.
