Our goal is to bring together Black youth from all over the GTA and surrounding areas to assist in their participation and leadership within the Black community. We aim to give youth a voice and an opportunity to be heard on issues that impact our society. We also aim to help youth understand the oppressive nature of the system we live in and how it is the root cause of all the major problems our community faces. Through events and initiatives we try to inspire Black youth to truly love and value the African collective our community represents.

Foremost, we value African life.

Invisible City...

The National Film Board of Canada is producing some serious material... check this out:
Invisible City is a feature-length documentary by Academy Award nominated Director, Hubert Davis, about transformation of community and identity. The film is set in the inner-city housing project of Toronto's Regent Park; Kendell and Mikey, like their surroundings are in the process of transformation; the environment and social pressures tempting them to make poor choices, their mothers and mentors rooting for them to succeed. Turning his camera on the often ignored inner city, Academy-award nominated director Hubert Davis sensitively depicts the disconnection of urban poverty and race from the mainstream.
