WHO WE ARE The United Black Community (UBC) is a coalition of progressive individuals and originations in the Pan-African Community, primary oriented in the Washington D.C. Area. OUR MISSION To actualize Pan-Africanism by developing, implementing and propagating a successful model for a unified local Pan African community, comprised of organizations that share the goal of creating a way of life based on an African identity that precedes both chattel slavery and colonialism, that rejects domination of African people by others; to insure our collective identity and facilitate our ability to pursue our collective self interest; and to link the local Pan-African community with other Pan-African communities all over the world. Through this process, UBC will address the power differential between African people and other peoples in the world, making it possible for African people to act collectively with dignity and sovereignty. OUR PROGRAMS Among the programs currently sponsored by the UBC sponsors are Kwanzaa, Kuzaliwa and Umoja Award. For Kwanzaa we organize various events and publicize the events of others that we feel remain true to its original standards in the Kwanzaa calendar. In order to honor Brother Malcolm X we hold our Kuzaliwa (Happy Birthday) celebration in May and present the Umoja Award to individuals that honor his memory by helping to unite Black people through their work.
