CINCINNATI CONSTRUCTION ACADEMY

Here in the U.S., our CINCINNATI CONSTRUCTION ACADEMY is actively working to recruit and train urban youth, community members and ex-offenders in the construction trades. We believe that by doing so, these people will finally claim the just financial, political, social and cultural stability denied them for centuries.

The "WE SHALL OVERCOME" LAWSUIT

Through an historic lawsuit filed in April of 2016, the We Shall Overcome Foundation successfully returned the iconic global civil rights anthem, "We Shall Overcome" to the public domain.  The world may now access its divine message of hope and justice without restriction. This anthem was born of the African American church and should be sung freely can now used by all people of the world without cost or restriction. 

The U.S. AFRICAN AMERICAN RESTORATION ACT

No nation on Earth has ever meaningfully atoned for the kidnapping, murder, rape, torture, abuse, enslavement and exploitation of Africans. In keeping with the divine mission of the We Shall Overcome Foundation, WSOF proposes historic legislative relief and supportive services to African American men, women and children in their struggle to achieve justice, equity, and equality of education and employment in the US.  This is much more than "Reparations". (See "U.S. African American Restoration Act").

ARMS OF GOD, BRAZIL

In Brazil, since we provide hands-on humanitarian goods and services to orphans and those most in need (See "Arms of God ~ Brazil"). We provide financial and human resources for food, clothing, medicinal items, health services, and other services for needy children, orphanages and child care facilities in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. We aspire to send US high school and college students to Brazil to meet these needy children, learn about their struggles, and create meaningful experiences and relationships while learning about Brazilian culture.
