When a husband and wife cannot get along, they separate and divorce. After 400 years, we have found white people disagreeable to live with in peace. We have differing views on reality. It will take 240 years for us to achieve economic parity with whites. The created Israel in 50 years into a powerful nation. After centuries of free and nearly free labor, we are entitled to a few of these states for ourselves wherein we can live in peace and not be subjected to white lunacy at every turn, in every institution. We need sovereignty as human beings so that we are not subjected to the wicked political and economic structure of white America. The capitalist economy is rooted in slavery or cheap labor and the exploitation of resources around the world, often at gunpoint, i.e., gunboat diplomacy!
We have no desire to live by exploitation of human labor and the theft of the natural resources of oppressed people around the world.
We envision a more positive social/economic and political reality based on power to the people, not politicians, lobbyists and corporations who see people as cannon fodar for the fires of capitalist greed.
It is time to claim the land we deserve and occupy it by any means necessary.
We are willing to negotiate a just
and fair separation of American states for a sovereign, independent nation of North American Africans, as part of the Reparations settlement that will allow us funds to establish ourselves after 25 to 50 years of economic support.
We have the human right to depart from a situation that is toxic to our bodies and minds, to our children and elders. We have no need or desire to prolong the discussion.
After an extended educational campaign, we shall call for a plebicite or vote of the people who shall decide whether to separate into a nation of our own or continue trying to integrate into a burning house as Martin Luther King, Jr said. At this very hour America is a burning house with a full blown pandemic and we must escape to higher ground. Those North American Africans who desire to separate must do so for our mental and physical health. Those North American Africans who desire to integrate into the burning house should remain, but those of us who find America disagreeable to live with in peace have no choice but to separate into a nation of our own.
We have the genius to configure a more democratic and equitable society than the exploitative US nation which has abused us and treated us like dogs for 400 years.
The time has come for us to separate into a nation of our own wherein we can become our true selves once again and forever.
This is our demand, only the terms are negotiable.
