1. We seek to work in unity with Black Men who are former gang leaders, community activist, clergy, educators, and entrepreneurs throughout every community in the City of Chicago, to work for peace and to end violence.

2.  We seek to build unity among Black men to heal the past grievances we have had against each other because of our gang life styles, often imposed on us in environments of poverty, miss-education, drug addiction, low self-esteem, negative attitudes and dysfunctional families.

3. We seek to heal our own broken lives, broken homes, broken families, broken communities, and broken promises by agreeing to hold each other accountable, not to perpetuate the crimes, slander, and distrust that lead us down the road of the vicious cycle of revenge.

4. We seek to eradicate the guns and other weapons as the way to address problems in our community.

5. We seek to train ourselves and our youth in how to deal with conflicts with appropriate resolutions.

6. We seek to mediate in minor conflicts to prevent them from being major, block by block, and community by community.
