The Frederick Douglass Foundation is a public policy and educational
organization which brings the sanctity of free market and limited government
ideas to bear on the hardest problems facing our nation. We are a collection
of pro-active individuals committed to developing innovative and new
approaches to today's problems with the assistance of elected officials,
scholars from universities and colleges and community activist. Through
publications such as e-magazine The Freedom Journal, lectures and
special events, we will distribute those ideas to policy makers and key
opinion leaders to make meaningful change

Our goals are to educate, enhance, and empower:

A. By being a liaisons to Black, Faith Based Organizations, Conservative
candidates, party and elected officials.

B. We will reach out to educate the social, cultural, spiritual, and civic rights
needs of our nation.

C. We will train political workers, volunteers, and candidates as leaders in
the political arena.

D. Provide tools for improving the economic status of the individuals, families
businesses within the targeted communities, thus, enhancing the quality of
life.

E. Assist families in their efforts to remain safe and self-sufficient through
education and training.

F. Develop community outreach projects that educate the community on
housing, medical information, job training projects, and literacy development.

We plan on presenting position papers in the following areas:

Providing a sound, basic education to every child.
Crushing tax burdens on families and businesses.
The costly, immoral, and destructive welfare state.
Lack of economic opportunities for all citizens.
A decline of individual freedom and self-reliance.

We believe:

We live in a land of liberty where natural rights of individuals precede and
supersede the power of the state.

We are a constitutional republic in which government power is limited and
employed for the purpose of providing legitimate public goods rather than for
the benefit of insiders and narrow interest groups.

We are a free market in which persons, individually or collectively, have the
natural right to sell goods and services to willing buyers, and in which the
individual pursuit of economic opportunity benefits all.

We are a free society where citizens solve social problems not only through
government but also by working together in families, neighborhoods,
churches, charities, and other private, voluntary organizations.
