Principles
The Malcolm X Grassroots Movement MXGM is the mass association of the New Afrikan
People’s Organization (NAPO) and an organization of Afrikans in America/New Afrikans whose mission is to defend the human rights of our people and promote self-determination in our community.
We understand that the collective institutions of white supremacy, patriarchy and capitalism have been at the root of our people’s oppression.
We understand that without community control and without the power to determine our own lives, we will continue to fall victim to genocide. Therefore, we seek to heighten our consciousness about self-determination as a human right and a solution to our colonization. While organizing around our principles of unity, we are building a network of Black/New Afrikan activists and organizers committed to the protracted struggle for the liberation of the New Afrikan Nation – By Any Means Necessary!
SUPPORT HUMAN RIGHTS
We actively support and struggle to defend the Human Rights of Afrikan people in the United States and around the world. We actively oppose those social, economic, political and cultural practices and structures that contribute to the violation of our people’s human rights whether it is based on ethnicity, nationality, social status, class, gender or sexual orientation (including gay, lesbian, transgender, bi-sexual, or other sexuality).
DEMAND REPARATIONS
We demand Reparations, or repayment for four hundred years of slavery, colonialism and oppression of our people in the United States of America.
PROMOTE SELF-DETERMINATION
We promote Self-Determination and must organize for the liberation of the Afrikan nation, held colonized in the United States.
OPPOSING GENOCIDE
We oppose Genocide or the acceptable and calculated killing of our people by individuals, institutions and organizations of the United States government, through lynching, disease, police terror and any other means.
FREE ALL POLITICAL PRISONERS & PRISONERS OF WAR
We demand the release of activists who have been imprisoned because of their commitment in seeking human rights and liberation for our people. These brothers and sisters are Political Prisoners, Prisoners of War, and Exiles they should be recognized as such.
ENDING GENDER & SEXUAL OPPRESSION
We work to dismantle all systems that subjugate New Africans who are oppressed based on gender and sexuality. We must take uncompromising stands against all forms of sexist oppression and cisheteropatriarchy.
