      @@CoTheboxer Good thinking Robert. Take it from an African- African American who came, studied in America, worked, saved some money, and purchased large expanse of fertile land/forest in Nigeria for multi use. I grow cocoa, palm tree for Palm oil, cashew.
      After college in the U.S, I worked in corporate America for several years. I also learned hard lessons after one or two lapses in judgement. So my advise to you, as you are planning to travel and enjoy real freedom in the land of your ancestors, is for you not to have ANY run in with the law here in America. Once they have you tied up in that court system, the goal is to keep you trapped in it so you cannot prosper. The other thing, and here's where a lot of brothers get screwed is in the family court system aka child support. Don't allow any of these 'sistahs' tie you up in that mess. That's how that child support court has ruined the lives of millions of black men. They can't travel because they are denied passports, and then, if they default even due to no fault of theirs, their license is suspended, and then in some cases, they are arrested and jailed. At that point, they are really screwed. So no matter what, stay away from these temptations. They were put in place to lock down young black men like you with ambition to seek better and to seek freedom elsewhere from the clutches of massa. If you steer clear of these traps, you will be very ok.

      Cerise Campbell you believe that test that clearly states its for entertainment purposes ? You believe the test that was created by the very white people who oppressed us ? You have the same last name as my grandmothers father Campbell and my family migrated to New York City from Mississippi starting back in the late 50’s ...you’d be shocked to know that you’re probably an indigenous Aboriginal American AKA NATIVE AMERICAN. A lot of Campbell’s are from the Mississippi Choctaw bloodline. I suggest you search the National archives and census records you will probably find that you’re indigenous to this land here called America. I found numerous documents of the Campbell lineage of my family who owned land here in America. My 4th great grandmother on my mother’s side was pure Choctaw. No disrespect to you but those tests are designed to get your money and for them to get our DNA 🧬 for scientific research and testing. Most so called black Americans are not of African Ancestry. The records are available on the national archives, census bureau. Go to family search.org you can trace your family history for free.. advanced searching you may have to pay for but I know when I traced my Campbell lineage it was free I have documentation all the way back from the civil war when my 3rd. Great grandfather Jefferson Campbell served in the war his war records has him listed as Native American. I hope you take the information I have provided with good intentions as I just want our people to know who they truly are and not allow complete strangers to tell you where you came from because they have lied to us for centuries why would they tell you the truth now. God bless 🙏🏿

      Eiffel accepts my apology for the part our ancestors played. They were rivalry so when they went to war they captured each other. People captured lived freely among the tribe that captured them so would not marry from that tribe that was captured but they lived side by side. There was a class system as a result I know this because the Ibos were still refusing to marry the group called Osu because of their origin. I am not in support of this culture but am just highlighting it yo you. No one was treated as an animal if they were our grand parent and great grand parents would have told us using folktales. Once again I am sorry for our forefathers part in slavery I know most of them were helpless as the British came in with gunpowder and guns. I come from a region in Nigeria that was the last area the British captured. My people resisted until the British learnt that the people will only submit when their Oba is captured. They followed the advice given to them by already captured tribes and succeeded. Read up the history of ancient Benin Monarch in Nigeria.

It's good that great people like Wode Maya are exposing the beauty of Africa and endless possibilities there, maybe that will nudge some of these corrupt government officials to better take care of their own people and land... my family is from Congo and the government there is just pure sh!t...

      Please forgive the length of the explanation which is by no means complete. Do not hesitate to continue to ask more if necessary.
      They have been conditioned to be ignorant and fearful by more than 3000 years of oppression resulting from continuous wars. Those crimes are the results of mental/emotional instability due to those continuous wars accompanied by oppression.
      The effects of wars and the oppression that follows must be considered in order to understand the social malfunctions within communities, societies and nations. In my opinion, it is especially important to investigate the Occidental/European history and the effects on the European/Occidental mindset, which has been the oppressively dominant culture represented by colonial imperialism in every area of activity as described by N.Fuller, for nearly 500 years.
      In my opinion, the oppression suffer in Europe, was transferred to the invaded civilized communities on Earth. Racism is an extension of abusive "Royalism," of which there are many examples in European history.
      Over 3000 years the warring tribes of Europe combined into various kingdoms. Wars are won by killing and discomforting women and children. Wars make widows and orphans and breaks the spirit of men, such that they are oppressive to women and children.
      Like today, the ignorance is encouraged and exploited by the minority mercantile class upon the majority of those whom they conquered. The conquered were even abused for the sick entertainments of their oppressors.
      How can any Human erroneously designate himself the same color of clouds and snow, efficiently designate others?
      Consider the cultural backdrop of entertainment, such as feeding oppressed to the wild animals, execution practices, scientific and medical experiments in the name of art. The oppressed of that time were certainly traumatized and it affected their children and grandchildren with fear not to stand against oppression. Instead, they played into the oppressors hands to be sub-oppressors when the opportunity presented itself.
      The biggest opportunities were presented after 1492.
      The colonial empires and their mercantile masters, unwillingly for the first time had to designate and delegate to those lesser countrymen titles and authority, which inflated their ill developed egos to feel and imitate superiority.
      One result was the swindle of swindlers commonly referred to as the American Revolution. In reality, it was a hostile takeover or accurately a small group of mobsters who muscle in on another group of gangsters territory. Pirates stealing from pirates who continued stealing what the original pirates intended to steal.
      Since nothing is monolithic where Human behavior is concerned, some of those pirates maintained business alliances, and gradually agreed upon the partnerships to secure tentative arrangements for global domination. Various wars and conflict resembling a game of "cut-throat" have been distractions to their oppressed citizens from the ultimate goal of global oppression.
      Oppression affect the mental/emotional health of both oppressor and oppressed, such that they will even lie to themselves intoxicated with delusions of grandeur.
      To know who rules you, is to know who silences you. The truth they silence, is their enemy.
      Expose the make-believe concept of "whiteness" for the lie that it is and the "house of cards" comes apart. The emperor wears no clothes.
      The Fear of Truth is the worst nightmare of in the mentally/emotionally unstable mind of authoritarian thinking. Authoritarian thinking is no different than that of a bratty over indulged child, who runs amok, throws tantrums, and hurts others until it has its way.
      Unfortunately this child has control of the rules of the game, weaponized systems of laws and de-Humanized Human and actual weapons in place to enforce their whims. Unlimited Serial Killing and Mass Murder are its trademarks for those who will not blindly conform to their ridiculous whims and notions.
      The original movie "The Bad Seed," brilliantly illustrates the behavior.
      Truth changes the mind-scape of the oppressed and oppressor.

    We are the descendants of our ancestors. Our family was stolen from their land, language, family, and culture. They were spread all over the world. Now, we have to return to Africa to learn what was lost. I am angry that I do not know my African culture, language, or the way of life. There are so many in America that say they are American not African American because they have never been to Africa. They can deny all they want. Africa is in their blood. Soon I will make the trip back where my ancestors were taken from.

I think of all the rapes of my grandmother's cuz we can track back to the slave boat. Two brothers who sold the boats for two plantation one started raping my grandmother immediately down to all my other grandmother's even when slavery was abolished they still could control us through brutality even now they kill us every day
    The overseers who are now cops Second Amendment rule... and they have our men in jail 4 BS stuff and they get a lot of time in prison. Now what happens when the male is out of the home leave the woman alone what happens to those children without a father in the house
