People's Campaign for Reparations and Black Self-Determination

NATIONAL SURVEY:

The purpose of this survey is to gather information and feedback regarding public response to the idea, proposal and movement to obtain reparations and self-determination for Blacks/New Afrikans within the United States of America, in particular those who are descendents of enslaved Africans.

Reparations: to repair and make amends: compensation for the effects and impact of slavery, state-sponsored violence, Jim-Crow, CO-INTELPRO (the United States government-led counter-intelligence program to identify, target, assassinate and incarcerate Black/New Afrikan leaders): ‘War on Drugs’(government-led initiatives to flood the Black communities with drugs, target Blacks with disproportionate numbers of arrest, convictions and longer prison sentences).

Self-determination: the human and international right of a group of people to freely determine and decide its own political and economic relationships: the right to be a nation and determine their own political identity and destiny.
