St. HOPE began in 1989 in a portable classroom at Sacramento High School as an after school program named St. HOPE Academy. Founded by NBA All-Star and Oak Park native Kevin Johnson, St. HOPE is a nonprofit community development corporation whose mission is to revitalize inner-city communities through public education, civic leadership, economic development and the arts.
Over the last 19 years, St. HOPE has dramatically improved Oak Park through its holistic community development approach, and has made a major economic impact and contribution in the community. St. HOPE has started, attracted or catalyzed the creation of 20 businesses throughout the community resulting in nearly 300 jobs. These efforts have generated a significant infusion of capital in the community, including more than $10 million in economic and real estate development investments.
Over the last five years, St. HOPE has birthed two major revitalization projects that combined have initiated an education and economic resurgence in the underserved, inner-city community of Oak Park, California. In May 2003, St. HOPE opened the 40 Acres Art and Cultural Center, a 25,000 square foot mixed-use facility located in the heart of Oak Park's commercial district. Housing a Starbucks, a bookstore, a barbershop, 12 loft-style apartments, a world-class art gallery and a 200-seat theater, the complex won distinction from the California Redevelopment Agency with the “Award for Excellence in Mixed Use Development” in 2004. The goal of 40 Acres is to create a destination locale that would serve as a catalyst for economic and cultural renewal.
Shortly thereafter, St. HOPE opened St. HOPE Public Schools, a preK-12 independent public charter school system that is currently comprised of seven schools. The goal of St. HOPE Public Schools is to provide Oak Park youth (as well as young people living in similar communities across the country) with a continuum of high quality education from preschool through high school; an education that prepares students for success in a four-year college as well as instills within them a commitment to serving others.
breh, we know KJ, who I respect, will not be spitting that truth like Umar. And he won't be promoting a black agenda
So providing young black minds with a better education and recreational activities that are an alternative to the streets isn't an agenda we can hop on board with.......? Yall nikkas crazy
partly why I respect KJ is due to some of those things you posted, but what is lacking from his efforts is the ability to spit that truth, while complimenting it with action
Not that kind of action where you need to use coded language because if you use the term "black family/black community," folks will feel offended, intimidated or some other reason why the coded language of "minority" or "people of color" are used to get support from black and non-blacks
That need to use coded language does psychological harm that affects black of different tax brackets and education. Like so-call jewish community can have events, that mofos are tripping over themselves to be photographed at, that blatantly says all proceeds goes to a jewish cause or Isreal defense fund
Your point about duck sauce poosay may be valid if nikkas weren't trying to undermine Umar with the fact that a single black male fawk black poosay, which happen to be from a stripper that he was not dating
Umar Johnson does not have a PhD. He was studying for a doctorate called a PsychD which is noted in the link. Apparently, he presented his dissertation in 2010 but it was not accepted. Coincidentally, he started being called Dr. on YouTube videos by different uploaders in 2010.
Umar says that he received his doctorate in July 2012. Shaquille Oneal has a doctorate called Ed.D. (doctorate in education). Shaq presented his dissertation orally so there is no written record. I wonder if Umar Johnson did an oral dissertation.
Umar lists his degrees and the universities at 9:45
When this fact alone is not motivating black folks to want this brother to achieve his vision and/or want to donate money/time to similar efforts by other folks and organizations, then clearly something is wrongIts not even about Kevin Johnson or any of the simplistic examples the trolls used........This is about Umar Johnson is a Pro Black Black man who is looking to help black boys grow into strong black men who are for black power and survival. He is looking to take our youth away from the cacs school to criminal to prison industrial complex..........
These other negroes still want to be apart of the white man in some form or fashion, which is going to continue to be the downfall........
lol you have issues.Why are you c00ns even worried about what Umar is doing? You just keep sending your children to cac schools and integrating them more in more into this mess, so they can keep churning our more criminals and homosexuals.......
You let real nikkas move forward...you nikkas can continue to get slaughtered by these devils and have cac school teachers and psychodevils diagnose your children with invisible disorders in order to keep their pharmaceutical brethren wealthy, while providing your kids with shyt that make them impotent by 30 and savages by 20, who in turn raise that "Black on Black Crime" stat............But continue on..........
Millions of black boys graduate every year and do not go to prison.......without hotep help.Its not even about Kevin Johnson or any of the simplistic examples the trolls used........This is about Umar Johnson is a Pro Black Black man who is looking to help black boys grow into strong black men who are for black power and survival. He is looking to take our youth away from the cacs school to criminal to prison industrial complex..........
These other negroes still want to be apart of the white man in some form or fashion, which is going to continue to be the downfall........
At this point, he's not going to get a school built. He should've started off small, with realistic goals. But he was talking about give what you can and then in the next sentence, scold people for not giving enough. I donated once to his project, but I started hearing him talk more and more and realized that his school is not going to get built. Telling people that their kids have to wear their natural hair and not perms or weaves? I just think he's gotten caught up in his own hype. He's become bigger than his message, just like some preachers. Sooner or later, people are just going to tune out.Give him a chance, he already has $400k, so let's see what he will do with that.
