Over 100 Black Students and Youth Leaders Organize National Reparations Summit

Nationwide — The National Reparations Institute along with 100 Black students and youth leaders will convene a National N’Daba (Great Gathering) Reparations Summit on Friday and Saturday, November 1-2nd, 2024 at the Atlanta University Center in Atlanta, Georgia. This year’s fourth annual National N’Daba (Great Gathering) will include a diverse and evolving group of committee members, presenters, and youth advocates within the existing Complete Reparations Movement.

Recent events have catapulted the long, complicated, and often brutal history of the treatment of Blacks in America to the forefront. As a result of the historic and current impact on Black Americans’ inability to achieve and maintain equality in this country, the time is now for not only a discussion on complete reparations but a custom model and application of the National Reparations Declaration led by youth organizers and an experienced committee.

This year, the youth and attendees will benefit from this national N’Daba/summit on reparations in four ways:

• The practice and strategy of functional unity and co-leadership within the existing complete reparations movement.

• A diverse cross-section of the nation’s leading Black students, Black youth, and Black scholars reflecting diverse theological, political, philosophical, and ideologies will participate.

• The “Collective Culture Model” will be instituted to ground us in the actual process and methodology of securing complete reparations. Select committees in education and culture, economics and investments, state and land acquisition, public and mental health, and public policy and legislation will be established.

• The introduction, organization, and implementation of local organizing committees for complete reparations will be incorporated.

• Training on organizing sustainability and wellness for co-leadership of trauma-based work.

Please prepare yourself to participate in this year’s N’Daba (Great Gathering) to ensure long-term educational, economic, cultural, and political success and sustainability for the remainder of the 21st century.
