Rapper Akon wants to end systemic discrimination

^^^^ Amen !

rapper and entrepreneur Akon has long championed the idea of reconnecting the African diaspora with the continent, stating in interviews that his ultimate goal is to “get as many African-Americans back home to Africa as I possibly can.” He argues that Africa possesses abundant natural resources, land, and population, but lacks the combined expertise and investment that African-Americans could bring, potentially transforming the continent into the strongest economic power in the world. Akon believes that by relocating, many could escape systemic challenges in America while building generational wealth through opportunities in Africa’s growing markets.

God bless Akon for his bold efforts

Systemic discrimination in Africa involves machetes and warlords.

Sure, that will happen...

This has been tried. Africa doesn’t have wic or snap.
So it’s a no go.

As of July 2023, the settlement consists of a dilapidated campground, and its founders are working on establishing roads and utility services before beginning building residences. Despite a major setback with controversy surrounding embezzlement of the original funds, a new investor was able to wipe the proof and by purchasing an additional 400 acres. No one involved has been brought up on any charges involving FGI.

Wipe the proof?
Hide the evidence of the embezzlement?

African Americans do not exist. It's not possible nor logical. A black person is either an American or an African.
Choose one and act accordingly.

I 100% support this. Also, there's a pretty rational argument that suggests the current system of immigration keeps 3rd world countries down because the best and brightest leave those countries to come to the US (legally). So it's essentially a brain drain and the most capable don't help their home countries advance. Like what states like Louisiana are experiencing with college grads, but on a major scale.

I believe that process should take place. Start by shipping to city dwelling battle tested to clear a path of entry. Those criminal elements in Africa surely would welcome their brothers back especially after raping and killing their ancestors then selling what was still alive generation's prior.

Hey, Akon.
No one's stopping you.
See ya.

I'd agree to reparations for this.

The people and cultures aside, Africa's geography dictates that it will always be poor unless sufficient capital can be applied to overcome that geography.

I just hope those warlords don’t try to capture them and re-sell them back into slavery.

With proper leadership and stability some of the African nations should be wealthy.
If he feels oppressed I support him carving out a portion of the African continent to make a go of it and would be more than happy to have the government pay transit for him and anyone else who wants to give up their US citizenship to give it a try there.
