     UCC have developed a paradigm (model) and presentations that has been very successful in getting to the core of Stopping the Violence and Killings in our communities across America, especially in at-risked communities.   Are you tired of hearing children, business owners, police personnel, and innocent bystanders getting killed or hurt?  Are you also tired of witnessing Black on Black crime at an alarming rate?  Our purpose is to promote unity in the community with the help of everyone.

   We want to work with organizations all over America by serving as troubleshooters and a model to bring worth excellence in their programs.  Having a model gives the community hope and goals to work towards stopping the violence.   We have been blessed to present models of hope with prevention, counseling, life development skills and developmental programs.  We work and operate our centers and programs in the heart of the inner-cities where we have developed respect from the drug dealers, gang leaders and all youth at-risk.  We have also gain respect and love from the police departments, business, community and religious leaders in our community for our works.

We must STOP THE VIOLENCE and STOP THE KILLING in our communities

     To educate people about  African Culture and History through music, art and the performing arts, especially African Dance and Drum.   In addition, we seek to instill pride, dignity and enhance the understanding of the African American experience in relationship to our African Heritage.

            Our PURPOSE and GOALS is to help everyone and especially African-Americans or Black People learn, appreciate and understand the importance of honoring our heritage and place of origin, which is the most beautiful and resourceful geographical area that is called Africa (THE MOTHERLAND).  At the same time, helping our African Family appreciate that there are African-Americans helping to build UNITY, through teaching and emphasizing the importance of EDUCATION, HISTORY, AFRICAN DIASPORA, and of course presenting the beauty of our original culture of Africa through the PERFORMING ARTS.

   To educate all people by representing the beauty and majesty of our original culture of Africa through music, art and the performing arts where all music, dance and drum originated.  Also, to educate and make aware to those of African descent and especially African-Americans or black people of the United States of America that the geographical area of Africa is our roots and where we originated from.

Our METHODOLOGY

     Over 50 years of study, learning, practice, instructing and teaching the combination of the Martial Arts as the ultimate discipline program and the Arts of African Culture, Music, Dance and Drum as the LOVE of SELF and FAMILY, has been very successful and a proven methodology.

            We believe and can guarantee this will STOP THE VIOLENCE, KILLINGS and THE SOCIAL ILLS that causes harm to our families and community.   This combination is a must for our community and especially the children.

THE DISCIPLINED MIND- Discipline will enhance your listening power.  If you can listen, you can learn. This is the true essence of achieving academic excellence.

 KORY REGINALD JOHNSON
Born January 23, 1992 and passed away on August 1, 2010

 

            In the Unity Community Center, Camden, New Jersey, Kory was one of our best Karate students in Universal Pasha Karate School, Drummer and Acrobat in our Universal African Dance and Drum Ensemble, he was a member of the World Champion UPK Pasha Generals Drill Team, he played trombone in our UCC Music Ensemble and our baby mascot and member of The Deans Step Team since he was a little boy to the age of 14.

            Kory was raised Muslim and when his parents moved to Glassboro, New Jersey we lost one of our best students for the last 4 years.  Later we learned that Kory was getting into trouble, and being with the wrong crowd.  Unfortunately on Sunday, August 1, 2010 he was shot in the chest in Camden at 12:30 pm and later died in the hospital.  During the funeral we were all hurt to see an 18 year old young man that we loved die so young.  It also hurt us to see his parents and family hurt, cry and have to bury their love one.  No civilize or righteous parent wants to see their children die before them.  I thank our black belt NISEEAH BRANCH for taking time to put this YouTube clipping of the life of Kory in our Community Center and Karate School. I also thank our Black Belts  for representing the discipline and our Karate School at Kory's JANAZAH (Funeral).      I also pray that all parents, grandparents and guardians understand the value of our methodology of programs at the Unity Community Center and encourage their children and keep their children in our center.  Never let them quit, because you would have developed a quitter in life. Allow us to help you develop your children.  We are highly skilled teachers and mentors for youth at-risk.  Encourage them, direct them, support them, and sacrifice for your children.  Remember CHILDREN the FUTURE.

 Thank you
