What do you call a black man with an MBA? He is called a Nigger!
The 2005 Oscar award winning picture, Crash, received critical acclaim for its intensely charged story line about the perceived racial stereotypes of a cast set in Los Angeles, CA. The movie truly examined the fear and anxiety that lead to many of the racial conflicts in the United States.

About
The Gathering’s Mission
The mission of The Gathering is to build an Intergenerational, movement, rooted in history, cultures and non-violent direct action to heal communities, build collective strength and generate an environment of hope and opportunity.
Civil rights and social justice organizations have come to understand that collective action on a national basis is required to stop child incarceration and challenge the immoral process which perpetuates an unjust justice system. These groups are working under extremely difficult circumstances and many of them with little or no resources. The Gathering is a national movement that creates a coordinated space to 1) fortify relationships between regional groups, 2) support local endeavors and 3) enhance the ongoing organizing of non-violent direct action training. Central to its mission is strengthening our moral environment.
