Our Mission is to facilitate intentional coalition-building, information sharing and collective strategizing around social justice topics and causes. The goal is to cultivate a proverbial “village” of socially-conscious humans on a global digital platform.
A New Network for the Community Minded
What is It Takes A Village Nation?
It Takes A Village Nation is a social platform where activists, organizers, businesses and community members from all over the world can connect virtually.
We provide a safe space for these groups to collaborate, share resources, and mobilize around social causes they care about.
It Takes A Village Nation empowers you to build community quickly, and in that sense, no matter where you are, signing on allows you to strengthen and support the many villages in which we operate.

In the Year 1807 - "Freed Muslim Remains in America" Yarrow Marmout, an African slave of the Muslim faith, was set free in Washington, D.C.'s Georgetown neighborhood, where he lived for the
rest of his life. Marmout was an early shareholder in the Columbia
bank, which is the second chartered bank in the U.S. Today portraits
of Marmout hang in the Historical Society of Pennsylvania and the
Georgetown Public Library. In 1927, nearly 175 years after his arrival
to the U.S. as a slave, a descendant of his daughter-in-law's family,
Robert Turner Ford, graduated from Harvard University.
