POLICE BRUTALITY
This organization stands against all acts of violence perpetrated by our untamed and
undertrained police forces. As of 2019, Texas has been recorded to have the second-highest
number of killings by police officers in the nation. Especially focusing on the acts that are
perpetrated on our Black and Brown communities, who are unjustly targeted by state violence. Through creating legislation and performing direct action Next Generation Action Network works to hold law enforcement accountable. We are committed to creating a future of prosperity and equality that moves past #SayTheirNames.

RACIAL INJUSTICE
We stand against the systematic racism that was created to uphold the so-called white supremacy in this country. Racial injustice is not only endemic it is a milestone that holds back progress ingrained into our culture and must be eliminated by any means necessary. We are committed to seeing a future where Dr. King’s dream of us all being judged by the content of our character is a daily reality.
