In 1968, four men had a dream, a dream that saw a community, Harlem, rising up from the severe blows of inadequate: sanitation services; health services; educational services, social services; and the rising dangerous levels of drug abuse. In short, they saw a need for a revolution.
The dream envisoned by these men, imbued with the philosophy of "self-help" and "total community involvement" and, fortified with the power of the Principles of the Nguzo Saba, saw themselves conquering these ills and safely returning the community to the levels of civilized living that is enjoyed during the Renaissance. |
