What:
An organization built for community development.
Why:
We are elders of a community, a source for public and personal answers, a guide of strength in unity, working with our matriarchs and patriarchs to pass on the torch while uplifting generations to be.
Where:
Bay Area, California (eventually worldwide) We are now officially looking for youth/elders with interests/experience in: music, graphic arts, blogging, photography, film, street promotion, business, education, dancing, painting, turntablism, engineering, health, debate, social issues, community service, volunteer, reading, fund raising, and many others…
In late 2016 Poise and Scribe started a conversation about the 64 squares on a chess board. Poise was working on the production of a new song which is how the talk originated and by the end of their brainstorming session, EOB was named. Further discussion led the two founders of EOB into an in depth pursuit to create a whole world out of the initial buzz. By mid 2017 the rules and guidelines of the organization formed and the first two medallions were born.
Elders of the BloQK went public February 22nd. Its roots come from activism on both local and global scales. EOB comes from personal and ancestral struggles. As elders they recognize and help ascertain solutions to all peoples needs by identifying issues, communicating the truth, and guiding youth into opportunistic direction via workshops provided by our most experienced elders of that community.

“Thank you so much for referring Scribe as a coach for our kids. We had a wonderful time exploring, learning and eventually knowing each other as a team. He is not only a wonderful coach but a great human being.
The kids loved working with him and we look forward to having him as our coach next year. “
