For more than a year and a half, we have listened to Black women across this country raise the issue regarding the coming together of women of African descent. Upon much analysis and determination, this idea has became more than a conversation piece, but indeed a reality.

The dedication and commitment, along with the love and respect for such a project, clearly has disclosed the demand and necessity for a million or more Black women gathering together and that the time to do so is now.

Philadelphia will never be the same, more shall come. And Black people will never be the same because from this event (MWM) the lives of Black men, women, and children will be set in motion to obtain futher upliftment and qualitative change.

We look forward to this glorious endeavor. For the day and the time for Black women, (African women) has come, and the time for self-destruction, injustice, racism, and all such practices put to end.
