Mission Statement

The Mission of Building Blocks is to assemble provide forum and to cultivate, diverse, individual and group perspectives for the primary purpose of objective problem solving. To this end, we will engage important social, political, cultural, environmental and philosophical issues in the context of non-partisanship and self-representation. We intend to redefine the concept of a protest as a demonstration that introduces solutions from a myriad of perspectives. Building Blocks will employ multimedia as a vital tool providing alternative options for individuals expressive sensibilities. Thus, creating an environment that converges opposition, allegiance (and everything in between) towards a common productive resolve.

This blog was created as an alternative to the Building Blocks website. In addition to problem solving, this blog will serve as a global forum to address important issues and sometimes even to inform. Important solutions to any and all subjects are welcome even if they are not your own. I only ask that you always provide credit to the author and site your sources.
