Freedom and justice cannot be parceled out in pieces to suit political convenience. I don’t believe you can stand for freedom for one group of people and deny it to others. — Coretta Scott King
STANDING ON BUSINESS
Khaleel Riyaadh Siddiq was only keeping one hundred, all the while taking accountability in the process.
“I learned that not everything that bothers me is deserving of a response and that no response is a response and many times it is the best response,” Siddiq, during an interview this week with Making Headline News, said of his incarceration from 2015 to 2019. “I learned about my perception on how I seen the world governed, the way I lived in the world and at a time, and how this impacted my ability to develop as a human being mentally, spiritually, morally, academically, and the most best of ways for the greater good of self.”
For what it’s worth, Siddiq has gone to great lengths to diligently reinvent himself, thus connect with his divine purpose by way of Social Justice Initiative/Reform, his credible Little Rock, Arkansas-based nonprofit organization that has become a fixture for customarily building solid rapports within the community.
Generally, this is done encouraging and empowering what this esteemed community activist describes as productivity in the lives of youths, as well as those seeking to improve their lives.
EMPOWERED TO EMPOWER
JOIN THE FIGHT
An accomplished businessman, life coach, and transformational speaker in his own right, Siddiq — through his credible platform — has become committed to routinely empowering the masses to become better versions of themselves.
“After making adverse choices, I learned that there were and are better choices to be made that can and will be enriching for a lifetime,” Siddiq, a graduate of Benton Alternative Learning Center, told MHN. “I enjoy the freedom and the ability to directly do the things that I enjoy.”
In essence, the primary emphasis of Social Justice Initiative/Reform is designed to customarily render services to the homeless population such as food, clothing, after school programs, and positive activities for troubled youth.
Not only that, Siddiq emphasized, among other things, that his fledging organization is centered largely rendering pre-and-post-services to incarcerated individuals, most notably, clothing, employment services, housing, driver license and social security card acquisition, as well as college and trade school tuition assistance and counseling.

By all accounts, Social Justice Initiative/Reform services mostly youths and young adults aiming to garner a new lease on life.
“There are so many influences that literally lead people to lifestyle choices that are to their detriment,” Siddiq said. “(We service youths) across the nation.”
When asked what he relishes the most about his rising organization, Siddiq said:
“It has brought me to the realization that the world is much larger than what I believed. It’s not all doom and gloom, (so I’m destined) to do my part to make the world better.”
Much to his delight, Siddiq’s community-based Social Justice Initiative/Reform has been nothing short of impressive since it went full throttle in Summer 2021.
