Detroit Minds and Hearts Fellowship

A Youth-empowerment Initiative that TRANSFORMS youth to become agents of SOCIAL CHANGE. DMH is "Reactivating Activism" in our Muslim youth of today.

Our Objectives:

We aim to Recognize, Refine, and Retain:

· Recognize the positive potential of youth of agents of social change in their communities

· Refine their skills in order to increase the efficacy of their community work

· Retain youth by instilling within them a self-sustaining drive for social justice. The program is rooted in three principles of youth transformation:
-Egalitarianism
-Process vs. Product
-Authentic Challenges

"Mockingjay entertained millions over the weekend, who all collectively cringed at the injustice of the oppressive govt. and whose hearts shook as three fingers were held in the air to salute a fictional revolution.
Today an injustice occurred in real life and we're still talking about Iggy on the AMAs.
Let's wake up and realize that a young black man's arms in the air is our three fingered salute. "
