SOCIAL JUSTICE


The Culture Commission Coalition is calling on the community and the media to attend an urgent press conference addressing a grave civil rights violation.
On Monday, April 28, 2025, the Coalition called for justice in response to the unjust attack on Mr. Michael Singleton, an innocent man who was violently assaulted by members of the Dallas Police Department. The incident, captured on video by concerned citizens, has since circulated globally, igniting widespread outrage and calls for justice.

OUR PILLARS
SECURING
FUNDING

One of our primary objectives is to secure financial support from private and government sources to
bolster the efforts of local community initiatives.
We are committed to identifying funding opportunities,
crafting compelling proposals, and advocating for the resources needed to drive meaningful progress.
In 2024, Black-founded startups received just 0.48% of all U.S. venture capital funding—approximately $661 million out of $136 billion

community empowerment, we welcome you to join us in our mission.
Together, we can build a more
vibrant, inclusive, and resilient society.
As of 2024, only eight companies in the Fortune 500 are led by Black CEOs, representing just 1.6% of all CEOs. This is markedly disproportionate to Black Americans' 14.4% share of the U.S. population
