In our hearts we know that people should not live as they do. Humanity was born free and equal but across this earth lies broken, dying and in chains. It is our duty to act that unites us in this Association for our promised human rights. Medicine and Scholarship are our tools against injustice. We promise to wield these tools on the front lines of suffering. We will build the world we wish to see brick by brick. We carry the torch of the change makers. We were born free women and men. We will never surrender and we will never accept anything than less than our freedom. Our numbers are many and each day they grow. And we stand ready to always defend the impoverished, the abused and enslaved. And we are prepared to struggle for as long as we must. Generation by Generation. Until every last man, woman and child is also free. And in unity there is strength. Because I love my brother and my sister, my mother and my father, my children and my friends my fellow workers and also the suffering stranger, this is why I have joined the Banshee Association and enlisted in the modern human rights movement .

The Association intends to start initiatives that will help meet the social needs of the community, such as the organization of basic medical care, educational services, and economic development as a means to attain universal human rights as well as distribute information via public media to bring about awareness of conditions and events that positively and negatively affect our communities. The Association will accomplish this by distributing public information and holding events to raise awareness; recruiting and mobilizing instructional and medical volunteers to serve in communities of need; and to develop mutual aid based economic systems that will allocate resources and facilitate the advancement of working and poor families. The underprivileged in the US as well as those abroad will benefit from these purposes by receiving services that will help to empower them. And all will benefit as greater sections of humanity achieve their full human rights. The Association is always prepared to serve under the command of local communities and forge a vast international confederation for Human Rights Attainment with all elements of the Human Rights Movement.
