Don't Complain Activate : Invest in the Activation Bus
Many of you know as the previous President for the Minneapolis NAACP, founder of Don’t Complain, Activate, and a young attorney and activist. If you know me personally, you know that my true passion is people. God put me here to touch and activate his people. George Washington Carver traveled to teach Black people his discovery of over 100 ways to use sweet potato and a variety of other plants. In that same spirit, I am investing in an “Activation Bus” to engage, educate, and elevate our community. We will:
Engage by providing wrap-around services and resources
Educate the community on Black history and current issues; and
Elevate community members by providing them with knowledge and access to resources
This is more than a bus, this will be a Black woman-owned mobile educational, healing, and resource center for the community. Starting in Minnesota with plans to go to the East coast next.
