The Importance of Think Tanks in the Black community



– On today’s show we discuss the importance of Think Tanks in the Black community. Think Tanks can be viewed as research universities filled with social engineers and idea brokers working to further the cause of the Black community.

Essentially, Think Tanks function to mobilize the expertise of its participants in a way that influences political policy making. Not only is it important to make policies for the here and now, but it is very important to be prepared -now- for making policy changes in the future.

Our Think Tanks need to scientifically study black life and history, and use the data to inform our society on how to make BETTER DECISIONS. The Bitter Medicine Podcast has a Think Tank on WhatsApp with this goal in mind.

Besides being “Black first”, Black or African-centered Think Tanks need several key things to function and elevate the Black community. We use a clip of Dr. Claud Anderson’s “5 levels to control” to discuss this. Listen to learn more.
