Black Brick Society Publishes 10-Year Agenda for Black American Self-Reliance
BBS formally releases its 10-Year Agenda — a 4-pillar, 11-item framework for building the infrastructure of Black self-reliance by 2035. "This is not a wish list. It is a work order."
Black Brick Society has formally published its 10-Year Agenda for Black American Self-Reliance (2025–2035) — a comprehensive framework organized into four pillars and eleven measurable objectives, each with defined baselines, targets, and accountability milestones.
The Agenda is organized under what BBS calls The Architecture of Self-Reliance: four interdependent pillars executed through a network of eight Sector-Specific DAOs, State DAOs, and Community DAOs operating under the National BBS-DAO.
The Four Pillars: - Pillar I — Economic Sovereignty: Items 1–5 covering homeownership, Black banking, business acceleration, wealth gap closure, and intergenerational wealth transfer. - Pillar II — Political Power: Item 6 establishing independent political infrastructure, regional PACs, and the Black Agenda Scorecard. - Pillar III — Community Infrastructure: Items 7–9 building cooperative institutions, community health co-ops, and community safety councils. - Pillar IV — Education & Technology: Items 10–11 creating community-operated schools and a national digital skills training initiative.
The Agenda includes sourced baselines for every objective and three-phase milestones (Foundation 2025–2027, Expansion 2027–2031, Consolidation 2031–2035) for each of the eleven items.
"This document is our formal commitment — to our members, to our communities, and to Black America — of what we intend to build by 2035," said Broderick Thomas, Founder of Black Brick Society. "This is not a wish list. It is a work order."
