Strapping the Community with Love as we Conquer Hate
WHAT’S GOING ON ~ truth of the matter
Our Mission
Our mission at TheStrappedGroup is to provide visibility and awareness of systemic injustice through innovative solutions. Equipping individuals with the technology and resources they need to influence positive outcomes and effective change in their communities.
Our Vision
Here at The Strapped Group, we envision creating a Community of Protection (C.O.P) for the people of color struggling with Police Injustice Globally Seen(P.I.G.S), recognizing how these injustices heavily impact our community. The Strapped Group strives to develop educational opportunities to influence the upcoming youth and teen groups worldwide positively.
TRUTH OF THE MATTER - WE STILL HAVE A PROBLEM
People of color are dying at the hands of law enforcement across the globe. History has shown us that there is a crisis when it comes to equality in these communities. The increasing use of video to provide evidence of the violence inflicted upon Blacks in America can be directly traced to video cameras becoming democratized.
It wasn't until seeing the brutality that America's heart moved to implement a few policies designed to chip away at structural racism. It is the mission of The Strapped Group to provide resources to enhance digital defenses by making it more comfortable and more effective to share individual instances of injustice.

GET STRAPPED ~ with Peace of Mind
We desire to equip black and brown people with the necessary guidance to properly handle police injustices by establishing a Community of Protection (C.O.P.). The Strapped Group's mission is to provide resources to enhance digital defenses by making it more comfortable and more effective to share individual instances of injustice.
This community hopes that the Police operate with equitable, just, constitutional transparent policies and practices that reflect the value and engender the community's trust.

With saving lives and livelihoods in mind
The Strapped Group recognizes these digital platforms that embolden the People by providing services that leverage evolving technology.
Independent recordings of police officers are critical for ensuring police accountability. With video recording, anyone can influence change and insist on accountability by documenting the violence and crimes committed by those paid to serve and protect.

Police Injustice Globally Seen
The Movement
P.I.G.S. looks to create a community through the expression of fashion. Our clothing symbolizes the visibility of police injustice across the world. Recognizing this movement allows the awareness to spread of injustice against black and brown individuals when dealing with the police.
With this awareness, P.I.G.S. aspires to provide the necessary resources to help the individuals facing these injustices by contributing part of our profits to The Strapped Group to fund youth education on necessary rights, laws, and procedures when encountering law enforcement.
