GENERAL MEETING – OPEN TO ALL
Black Men United is comprised of black men and those who support black men. Members are those who participate in the organization’s activities; live, work, and serve in the organization’s community; advocate for justice on behalf of the organization’s community; and seek to give voice to those without voice. Members are people of faith, clergy, and representatives of diverse, non-profit and community organizations.
Based in San Diego’s 4th Council District, Black Men United’s community is African-American people, African immigrants, American Indian, Latino, and others who, by experience, consciousness and culture, empathize with the black experience.
Black Men United’s vision is to serve as a unifying, empowering and moral influence in its community.
Black Men United’s purpose is convene, guide and galvanize black men (and those who support black men) to enable and empower its members and its community to address their relevant spiritual, individual, interpersonal, societal needs.
Black Men United’s activities and achievements reflect a commitment to faith, constancy, individual and community development, justice, and inclusion. Much of BMU’s work is accomplished through its Committees.
Join us as we pay tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. His words and selfless actions continue to be an inspiration and never-ending call-to-action for tolerance and peace with each new generation.
The Human Dignity Award annually honors an individual or group who have demonstrated extraordinary achievement and commitment in promoting the value and importance defined by the life and legacy of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
We were proud to announce last year’s Human Dignity Award Winner, the San Diego-based Tariq Khamisa Foundation (TKF). The foundation was founded in 1995 after Tariq Khamisa, a 20-year-old college student, was killed by 14-year-old gang member Tony Hicks. Hicks was tried as an adult for murder and sentenced to 25 years in prison.
