WHAT IS SOCIAL JUSTICE?

Social justice is the equal distribution of resources and opportunities within a system that is rooted in inequality.

We are a collective of social justice minded individuals from various sectors coming together to support the development of blockchain projects that serve the most vulnerable.

We believe every blockchain project should be designed to uplift marginalized communities and eliminate the wealth gap, poverty, inter-generational trauma and promote true democracy within unfair institutions.

Cryptocurrency is a tool of economic sovereignty. In order to make sure it is used as such, efforts must be made to reclaim its purpose.

99% Program

The 99% program is designed to support ICO and blockchain businesses in engaging in social responsibility by pledging a portion of their funds to support the following programming:

Developer Training

The blockchain technical education curriculum is designed to support underrepresented communities in developing the skills necessary to become the next generation of blockchain developers. This program will allow existing coding bootcamps serving underrepresented communities to license the curriculum and supplement their existing programming.

Community Education

The blockchain investment curriculum provides in depth education on the technology behind blockchain and cryptocurrency, token economics and more. The purpose of this program is to educate economically disadvantaged community members in order to become the next generation of investors and one day, impact investors.

Project Design Consulting

We support existing and developing projects in understanding the potential positive and or negative social, e and economic impact of their project and how to design projects in accordance with the tenants of social justice. In addition, blockchain enterprises will also learn how to incorporate diversity into their existing team to ensure a positive and toxic free workplace for all.

Events

We support local events and host annual conferences in cities where there is lack of access for the most vulnerable.
