Pan-African Community Action (PACA) organizes campaigns as a means of fighting oppression, advancing the struggle for power, and building African people’s capacity to govern our own communities. Our central campaign is for Community Control—the right of the people most impacted by systems of oppression to make the decisions that shape their lives. Through this framework, PACA develops and supports sub-campaigns that bring the principle of community control into practice across key areas of daily life:
Organizing to shift power from the state to the people in determining what safety looks like, how it is maintained, and who holds authority in our communities.
Advancing collective self-determination in health and wellness, challenging systems that profit from sickness, and building people-centered models of care rooted in the needs of working-class Black communities.
Each campaign is designed to heighten contradictions, expose the limits of reform, and deepen commitment to the struggle for liberation and power. PACA campaigns aim not to end participation but to strengthen it—transforming awareness into organization and resistance into governance.
