“The power in people is stronger than people in power.”

Black Lives Matter Will County Mission

Our mission is to unify, the historically oppressed, disenfranchised, and all who understand the struggles of such said groups. So that we move in one accord with the same ideologies and philosophies, never placing one above the other and nothing is greater than the goal of achieving the greater good for the people. 



Black Lives Matter Will County Vision

Bridge the gaps between those on city, state, and federal legislative panels to appeal to the needs and plight of our people.


Establish a stronger community where accountability is a most certain definite, and violent criminal acts especially those against innocents will not be tolerated on any level from any person or groups of persons.


Properly bring awareness of self and the true history of this land, and by doing so raise awareness of self and self-conscious, self-esteem, moral and the overall state of mind of the people.


Establish a political platform that is truly for the people and by the people so as to have the proper representation on county, city, state and federal levels in every branch of government judicial, legislative, and executive.


Provide financial literacy assistance training and career awareness programs to the community, to create a stronger community.
