A black agenda is jobs jobs jobs quality education investment in infrastructure and strong democratic regulation of corporations. The black agenda at its best looks at America from the vantage point of the least of these and asks what's best for all.

An image is not simply a trademark a design a slogan or an easily remembered picture. It is a studiously crafted personality profile of an individual institution corporation product or service.
