MEET THE FOUNDER.
JOIN THE MOVEMENT.
Dr. Khalid White
With BLKMPWR, I’m educating outside of the traditional classroom space. Using public speaking, books, film
to educate, inspire and empower.
It is my core belief that sharing our history and culture will change the world. I have dedicated my professional career to teaching in the field of African American studies.
My passion for teaching, learning and telling our stories drives me.
​
​I completed my undergrad studies in Sociology at Morehouse College. During my time there, I realized how crucial education is to changing lives, changing narratives and to uplifting communities.
​
While continuing my education journey at Harvard Univ. & UC Davis, I took pride in studying Education and African American studies.
​
Being an educator continues to be a privilege. I truly love it. BLKMPWR builds on that love and is dedicated to changing the narrative.
​
Education. Empowerment. Equity.
The
BLKMPWR
Story
Blkmpwr was created in 2015 due to the desire to move the Culture forward.
Blkmpwr creates all original multi-media content and programming; providing balanced, nuanced, and positive images, to educate, empower, and advance equity.
Blkmpwr is a family owned and operated business. We use a family business model. We realized that we are powerful when we put our minds and efforts together.
​
My personal goal was always to create books and film. But in order to get to that point, I started creating and selling Blkmpwr merchandise to generate revenue first. Making and selling t-shirts provided an entrance into business. And we enjoyed great success with our merchandise line.
After successfully growing the Blkmpwr t-shirt line, the business expanded into writing, publishing, and producing independent books and documentary films.
From the merchandise, books and films, doors continue to open up and the business has grown with the community's continued support.
