What Is The End Game For African Americans And African Diapora Nations?

[T'challa]

Africa is big. I'd prefer a regional start to such agreements before achieving a continental wide agreement. Perhaps I'm overly cautious.

I agree with your caution.

Speaking further about supranational bodies, in the final analysis I tend towards pulling out/scrapping AU/ECOWAS. Here's my line of thought when it the AU and ECOWAS.

I really cannot think about any future with them because they are completely useless and answer to money - AU to EU, ECOWAS to EU/Nigeria. My good guess is we will not be members of these since we have seen firsthand, their powerlessness in the Biafran cause. Also remember what OAU told us in 1968.

Also, the multi-layer bodies is a bureaucratic hindrance and the issue of jurisdiction is a nightmare .

I believe we will start a new supranational body. I don't think well want a proliferation (as it is currently) of these so I'm thinking we try to make it single as much as possible.

We start out as a 1 or 2 member body (Ambazonia in mind here), we need to be careful to get only members of similar ideals and drive to be the founding members. The nations that join hereafter are agreeing to the already existing laid down statutes and guides. We need to avoid this strange bed fellows thing like we have in the AU and ECOWAS now. For e.g. a dictatorship cannot be a member. Internal referendums for Berlin constructed states (more info here --> www.oeas.info).

As with any human organization there will be drivers and there'll be those that joined just to mark the register. The key is that such a body is shaped by such founding members.

I didn't go with region because I rather be in a body with some sensible nation like Botswana than one with La Republic de Cameroon or Nigeria (if it still exists).

AU is entirely useless, I agree. Replacing it won't be difficult. ECOWAS is largely useless as well. Honestly, I don't mind avoiding such bodies until we can create useful alternatives. The desire for change is rampant, so the mere presentation of sensible alternatives will inspire hearts across Africa.

Biafra has a role to play. Let us enter the stage!

Africans need to worry about owning the wealth in their own countries and building infrastructure in their own countries.

Africans cannot develop without good transportation infrastructure, working electric grids that can meet the demand for manufacturers and public healthcare/education

"Repatriations, maintaining the current resources that our ancestors fought for in this country and preserving/pronouncing our cultural identity." Those are some African American talking points and what appears to be the end game for now.

My personal endgame is some fantasy Afrofuturism Utopia shyt but I'm most likely gonna never see that

Real vs abstract..Wonder how'd they'd converge
Haven't seen any additions from Afro-carribeans/latinos, yet

Ok. Reclaim culture- Aside from language being already heavily entrenchedmore afrodescendientes need to centralize culture base, and identity around 'Black identity', *Hence avatar.
Soverignty- Afrodescendientes are perhaps most marginalized, and w/o means to self-identity(beyond entertainment), thus self-govern, & most live in segregated communities, but soverignty on a communal level wouldn't be outside realms of possibility. Finding ways to acheive that would greatly be aiding by finding a way to link with the most powerful group: AmericanDos, some what...how?
