![]() ![]() ![]() Black Americans going to African governments for support is like African citizens reaching out the Black American politicians like Cory Booker for support. ![]() Just as Black Americans have been fed up with Black politicians who aren’t doing anything for Black Americans - which is why ADOS has been demanding tangibles - Africans too have been fed up with their leaders, which is why there has been so much unrest on the continent in recent years. Tariq also repeats the misinformed line about Pan-Africanism being one-sided. The people who support ADOS don’t seem to understand this, so they criticize Pan-Africanism out of ignorance. Pan-Africanism has always been about building unity among African people around the world for our collective liberation, regardless of where we are in the world. Pan-Africanism isn’t simply about moving to Africa or gaining dual citizenship. They are also willing to support the struggles in the diaspora, but if you haven’t taken the effort to find these people then don’t complain about Pan-Africanism. There are African activists and Pan-African organizations which are fighting for a better Africa and are willing to involve the diaspora in that process. It benefits neither the diaspora nor Africans for us to be trying to build ties with the present governments on the continent. I also didn’t like the fact that the government of Trinidad and Tobago decided to invite Uganda’s dictator to celebrate Emancipation Day many years ago. Kitts and Nevis’ decision to establish diplomatic ties with Togo. Pan-Africanism isn’t about Black Americans or others in the diaspora connecting with corrupt African regimes. Why would anyone expect governments which don’t care about their own citizens to care about the diaspora? This is why I have always stressed that Pan-Africanism has to be a grassroots movement. ![]() **************Special EYL Viewer Promotion**********Tariq complains that he has been in Africa asking for dual citizenship and hasn’t received it yet.
