Black nationalism is an ideology which believes that Black people should be in control of their own lives and communities. This means that Black people should have an opportunity to make decisions about what happens in their communities and to work towards a better future for themselves. Black people should also be proud of their heritage and their history and strive to lift up their communities. Black nationalism is an important part of many civil rights movements, and it has helped fight for equal rights for Black people in America and around the world.
