    Are you black? Are you PETITIONING WHITES TO RETURN TO EUROPE? Then, WHY ARE YOU GLAD? AND FOR WHAT REASON SINCE THE EUROPEANS OWN YOUR LANDS? It's sickening to feel or form a friendship with the flucking thieves? Do you even understand BLACK AMERICANS AND BLACK AFRICANS DON'T EVEN GET ALONG? Explain what the fluck BLACK AMERICANS ever did to y'all?

    I think the indigenous people who are black and currently live in Africa should bring about the best possible United States of Africa WITHOUT ANY FOREIGN INFLUENCE. THAT INCLUDES ALL WHITE PEOPLE AND PALE SKINNED ARABS. FURTHERMORE, THE PEOPLE OF THAT NEW NATION SHOULD BE THE ONLY ONES WHO'LL DECIDE WHO'LL BE CLASSIFIED AS WHITE AND PALE SKINNED.

    people criticizing this that Africans seeking to unite is not a new phenomena.... imo some form of unity must take place in order to combat european, arab, chinese, etc. hegemony...i don't necessarily agree with turning the entire continent into one country, but some form of unity must take place...and when I speak of unity, I don't mean it in a "utopian" sense...dubois, malcolm, and martin bridging connections with nkrumah = one example of unity.

    When Africans themselves decide- maybe divide the continent into 5 or 7 large countries based roughly on geographical/cultural regions. This would then serve as the base for a new more focused African Union. Larger, fewer countries would be able to use the natural resources more efficently.

    Why were we created only to lives a lifetime of oppression. What is so bad and wrong about us that we deserve to be the foot stool for so many. Why do people treat us like we are the ones who enslaved them instead of the opposite. Why? We have never sought out revenge and we have never looked to enslave or oppress a people so, my question again. Why?

    It involves the Grace that The Creator has given each race to rule without restrictions. The White people are the last race and when the Bible speaks of the Black man being the Alpha and Omega tells is that the Black man was the first and will be the last! We are rising and this is what Whites have known would happen eventually and why they have worked so hard to keep us from rising! Their only problem is, you can't stop what God has already ordained! If you read the Binle, Genesis tells of this to Abraham and also told him what would happen to those who enslaved us. Revelations tells you about their punishment!

    Nous sommes dans une période de transition avec des priorités.Beaucoup de choses.vont encore changer,le. Le chantier de la décolonisation est immense et toutes les contributions pour la libération totale, tant qu'elles sont conscientes de l'obligation de la recherche du bien collectif et de la VERITE,contribuent á consolider les acquis.Sachant ,que pendant ce combat, nous.continuons á laisser entrer le prédateur.Donc,ce qui se construit légitimement d'un côté se détruit de l'autre,SANKARA,KHADAFI,OLYNP IO.NKRUMA,TOURE.ont corrigé des erreurs mais le.colon étant toujours présent,met en place des sabotages pour garder le contrôle et corrompre une minorité,ennemi de l'intérieur.Mais le problème majeur reste le RACISME.La minorité blanche refuse aux Mélanisés de tous les continents d'être AUTONOMES,comme dans le passé,où les échanges se faisaient sans occupation et génocides. La confusion est organisée dans tous.les.domaines et freine la RENAISSANCE.culturelle,Fondation et pillier d'une civilisation.

    Three & a half colonizing languages is not ideal. Two Afrikan indigenous languages & English & French is enough... I would even suggest three Afrikan languages & English. France's stranglehold on 15 Afrikan countries must be broken.. There was never "Liberte, Egalite & fraternite" for the Afrikans, assimilation is just talk. They are needed for serfdom. Many are left to die in French waters and beyond. Yet their peoples wealth are paid to France in billions annually and they have to pay France interest to get some of their own money under the "Pact for the Continuation of Colonisation", created on the 9th April 1944.

    As a Afrikan Citizen, uncolonized.....I grossly disagree with you. We Afrikans have been pushing hard for a non-tribal universal language in which to unite ALL of Afrika, we have decided that Kiswahili accomplishes this feat quite adequately. As for me, "Urithi wangu ni Balanta na Zulu." So my Heritage alone spans from Northwest Afrika to South Central Afrika. We are actively striving for what you claim cannot be done. Please, in your biased comment, do not underestimate the power nor possibility of "Alkebulani Unity!" It was the European invasion of 1884 that truly divided us. We are slowly healing from it's devastation. Ubuntu Ma'at Ase' 🙏🏿 Uhuru
