Our Mission is to facilitate intentional coalition-building, information sharing and collective strategizing around social justice topics and causes. The goal is to cultivate a proverbial “village” of socially-conscious humans on a global digital platform.
A New Network for the Community Minded
What is It Takes A Village Nation?
It Takes A Village Nation is a social platform where activists, organizers, businesses and community members from all over the world can connect virtually.
We provide a safe space for these groups to collaborate, share resources, and mobilize around social causes they care about.
It Takes A Village Nation empowers you to build community quickly, and in that sense, no matter where you are, signing on allows you to strengthen and support the many villages in which we operate.

June 24, 1867 - "Thousands of Chinese Railroad Laborers Strike in Western U.S." Between 5,000-7,000 thousand Chinese laborers working on the Transcontinental Railroad staged a strike in the Sierras to protest overseers who whipped and restrained them from seeking other work. They won the right not to be whipped or beaten. A second strike in Nevada desert won Chinese laborers the right to receive the same pay as their White counterparts. But the Chinese were still required to buy their own supplies while Whites got free room, board and supplies.
