Liberation Requires Community
The Power of Collective Action
In 1969, the Black Panther Party launched one of the most successful community programs in American history: the Free Breakfast for School Children Program. This revolutionary initiative didn’t emerge from the vision of just one or two people— it took an entire community of dedicated individuals, each contributing their unique skills.
The Call to Action
It started with organizing—creating awareness, building community support, and mobilizing resources. The Panthers didn’t just talk about change; they created systems that served their community’s immediate needs.
Key Organizers & Visionaries:
Community Care in Action
Every morning, volunteers prepared and served nutritious meals to children before school. This wasn’t charity—it was community members caring for community members, ensuring no child went hungry.

The many hands that made liberation possible
Your Role in Our Collective Power
The Black Panthers showed us that revolutionary change happens when ordinary people do extraordinary things together. Today, we invite you to be part of Àbulę’s collective power.
Because liberation isn’t built by heroes. It’s built by communities.
Àbulę is Reclaiming Education
From Weapon of Division to Tool of Liberation
Àbulę: Reclaiming Education
Taking Back Education
For years, education and mis-education has been used as a tool to divide—a weapon, a privilege for some and a barrier for others. But we are taking back education. It is the greatest weapon we have, the strongest weapon to empower, liberate, and change the world.
At Àbulę, we’re not just providing an alternative to traditional schooling—we’re revolutionizing what education can be when it honors culture, embraces community, and prioritizes liberation over limitation.
Global Village Learning
Our online school and virtual homeschool co-op connects 6th-12th graders worldwide, creating a diverse educational community where students learn from certified educators across continents—from Nigeria to Canada, Kenya to the UK.
Culturally-Rich Curriculum
We integrate diverse perspectives and cultural knowledge into every subject, ensuring students don’t just learn facts—they understand how education connects to identity, heritage, and community empowerment.
Affordable & Accessible
40% of our students receive tuition assistance, 10% benefit from full scholarships. At just $37.50 per class per month, quality education is accessible to families regardless of economic background.
Join the Educational Revolution
Àbulę means “village” in Yorùbá—representing a community where people learn, grow, and support one another through shared knowledge and cultural exchange. We’re building the digital evolution of this ancient wisdom, creating spaces where education becomes a tool of empowerment for every family.

Education Without Borders
Our educators bring more than just academic credentials—they bring lived experiences from across the African diaspora and beyond. Students don’t just learn subjects; they gain global perspectives, cultural understanding, and see themselves reflected in their teachers’ journeys.
From political science taught by someone navigating life between continents, to computer programming from the heart of Southern Africa, to microbiology from Nigeria’s academic institutions—every lesson is enriched by authentic global experience.
This is how education becomes liberation: when students see that excellence exists everywhere, that knowledge flows in all directions, and that their own potential knows no geographic limits.
