Black Society for Economic and Social Transformation was founded by Gilbert Wilkerson Sr. who was looking for a way to reach black people from all political, social and economic spectrums to do for themselves rather than wait for government assistants. We have enough power in human resources and capital to make a difference in our community.  Our goal is to take back our place on the free markets of America while allowing the transformation of our human existence to soar. Black Society is not an exclusive black people's organization. There are other races involved in the makeup and operation of Black Society's functionality.
