Black empowerment issues, resources, information, and networking.
Subreddit rules: This sub is for the discussion of Black empowerment topics, whether in business, finance, achievement, innovation, solutions to societal issues, or spiritual enlightenment. We focus on SOLUTIONS, not problems. Please do not post a bunch of 'look what society is doing to us again' posts unless you are posting a solution to the issue.
Do not insult, demean, or in other ways abuse anyone here. You are welcome to debate. Conflicting opinions are fine. Handle them like adults with discussion. Abusive posts, comments, or obvious trolling attempts will be removed and you will be firmly escorted to the door.
FAQ:
Q: I'm feeling really discriminated against by the existence of a Black power sub when there isn't a white power sub! That's not fair! I want to say I'm proud to be white but if I did you'd say I was racist! This sub is reverse racism!"
A: If you are not aware of the inherent differences in the concept and expression of Black power as opposed to the concept and expression of white power, we suggest you go Google the terms and then take your energy off somewhere else to have a nice day. Nobody cares if you love being white, are proud to be white, would rather be white than anything. Good for you! Now go forth and enjoy yourself. We are not sitting around here thinking about you. If that hurts your feelings, welp.
Q: I want to tell you all about what I think is wrong with Black/white/other people and why they're the cause of all problems in my personal life. Can I do that here?
A: Nope.
Q: I'm looking for more resources on the history and current state of Black empowerment, where do I start?
A: If you would like a book list, we can probably compile one, just ask. If you want some internet links, try some of the ones listed below.

BlackPower sidebar
I notice the sidebar info is not very visible on mobile and I've noticed an uptick in negative posts, so I wanted to reiterate: r/BlackPower is a place for Black wins, Black empowerment, Black solutions to Black problems, Black celebration and Black success. We're here to share positive stories, examples, and resources that can help our community continue to succeed independently of anyone else's permission. This is not a sub for:
"Look how much injustice is happening to us!" Yes, we know. If we're here, we know that. This is a place to share things that are working towards fixing the problems and building stronger communities. Constant shouting about the problems we face yet offering no solutions is not helpful. Consider using r/BlackInAmerica for those types of posts.
"Look how much [political party XYZ] sucks!" Honestly, they all suck. If you know of a candidate that is actually (not just promising to) doing something beneficial to or positive for the community, this is the place to highlight that. A bitchfest about what the Republicans, Democrats, etc are doing again is not. ... if you want to have that argument in the comments, fine. Otherwise consider the political subs for posts like that.
"This Black celebrity's actions are why we'll never get ahead as a people." Just don't. Consider taking that discussion to r/Blackfellas, r/Blackladies or even r/BlackCulture to discuss problematic celebrity culture issues. If you see a celebrity that is bringing POSITIVE things - creating jobs, building industries, investing in the culture and education - here is the place for that.
"Black women / Black men are the problem and in this essay, I--" No. Don't post that shit anywhere. Sit down.
"White people / Immigrants / non-FBA people are the problem and in this essay--" No. If you're focused on what everyone else is doing instead of our accountability to do things for ourselves, you are not mature enough to be here. You don't come to Black Power by concentrating on white people all day. For the purposes of this sub they are irrelevant. Focus on yourself, son. :P
