there's a lot to ur question...but Im going to eat so I can't give you the full answer. I'll tell you this much though. Blacks didn't start off on equal footing in the country--i.e., slavery and then Jim Crow. So, we're still playing catch up in a sense economically and socially. There are issues unique to the black community that require dialogue and communication to solve. Therefore, meetings and gatherings address these, as well as continue our tradition of "meeting" and "gathering" as it was during slave days.
