May I reprint this brother's post on African Americans and African Dual citizenship for "blacks"

[NOTE: Before going any further into this interesting message, I must admit that I'm open to comments about the validity of all this ... at the end, they ask for a very small donation, but they don't say where it's going to...That said, please continue.]

When you've finished reading this, there are two things you should do. First, tell every black man, woman and child you know and love about this. Mainstream American media have so far ignored this news. Second, sign the petition (link for petition here: thiscause.org/p/menu.php

It only takes ten seconds, is secure and private, and it is just that important! And now... Not sure if you knew this, but the African Union--the African version of the European Union--has made a monumental decision and has decided to offer full dual citizenship to Black Americans in participating African countries of the African Union. Their aim, say union leaders, is to "tap into the technological expertise and education of Black Americans" to help solve the most daunting challenges facing Black Africa today. On the flip side, Black Americans will gain a long overdue true, legal connection to the African continent and their ancestral roots.


Besides reconnecting to long severed genealogy, African Americans will gain a number of fringe benefits by seeking dual citizenship. Among other things, this will include the right to buy and sell land, the right to own and operate businesses, and the opportunity to take part
in the political and legal processes of their second nation.

As exciting as this may be, members of the AU who are drafting this proposal have been defining and redefining the language of the proposal for over four long years. In 2008, at the annual Leon H. Sullivan, Union leaders plan to unveil their first tentative plan that will
define their vision of the dual citizenship proposal.

There is an online petition at: thiscause.org/p/menu.php that will
be printed and mailed in bulk by the thousands to the African Union before the summit in 2008. Show your support of the dual citizenship proposal to give African Americans dual citizenship in African Countries. Convince the African Union leaders that Black America wants
dual citizenship in Africa and that it is time for the proposal to be turned into law. And let the resurrection of the great continent of
Africa Begin.


This is 400 years in the making, people. Black Americans have been suffering the psychological brain damage of severed ancestral ties to
their true African roots for far too long. At the same time, much of Africa has been suffering from the deadly virus of colonization,
poverty, and disease for longer than necessary. It is time we showed support for our once ancestral continent.
