Plymouth Area Network To Help End Racism
Who We Are
Plymouth Area Network To Help End Racism (NH PANTHER) is a small, volunteer-run, grassroots community organization. We are a collective of youth, professionals, educators, mentors, and friends standing up for the rights of all the disparaged and marginalized in our communities.
NH PANTHER formed in June of 2020 as a response to the murder of George Floyd and in tandem with a growing movement for social justice in the United States.
Our founder, Benjamin Bacote, is a high school humanities teacher, parent of three, and Black. In the summer of 2020, following the lead of their 13 year old son, Ben went to the town common to march, and answered the plea of a former pupil that wanted to ensure future students would be taught an updated, inclusive curriculum.
