#BlackOrgsMatter: Towards an Afrocentric Organization Design for Black Millennials

• In Event: Poster Sessions

Abstract

In the words of Molefi Asante, “we must aspire to more than shutting down; we must create, manufacture, and invent” (Asante 1988). Previous scholars have made valuable arguments regarding the characteristics of an Afrocentric organization, but there is a gap in research regarding how specific age groups can put these characteristics into action. As a discussion of subtheme 6, this paper seeks to answer the question, what is the most successful design for a Black millennial organization that incorporates African centered thought and liberation strategies?
