NEWARK
Guided by the core values of self-determination, sustainability, leadership, humanity, solidarity and Black love, our Newark Chapter of Community Movement Builders seeks to reexamine, revitalize, and extend Newark’s rich history of Pan-African revolutionary organizing. CMB Newark’s primary objective is to build genuine people power through survival programming, targeted campaigns, and popular and political education. Because we believe in the importance and necessity of organizing to build power in our communities, our work also involves coordinating and supporting the critical work of new and established grassroots organizations in Brick City. Our work aims to transform Newark into a solidarity city which sustainably serves the people and communities that make up each and every ward.
CURRENT PROGRAMS
Supporting our Returning Citizens
CMB Newark will be embarking on a resource collection campaign to support community members who are returning home after being incarcerated. We will be working with the Returning Citizens Support Group of NJ for this effort and hold a "Pack the Bags" event to prepare these resources and do political education.
