Didn't a group buy a town in Georgia to make a black city? I don't think that got off the ground either... and Akon thinks they're going to colonize and organize a whole arse continent.

"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.[1] Currently, the settlement consists of more than 500 acres (200 hectares) throughout two parcels.[6]

As of May 2024, construction for permanent dwellings or vital infrastructure has not begun.[7] As of June 2025 no updates have been given to the future of the project, with their X account being de-activated and no further updates from any social media platform."

I'm down for $100 if it is refundable due to his failure to meet his quota.
Should take at the very least...the populations in Chicago, Detroit, New Orleans, Philadelphia, and don't forget the Somalis!

We'll probably never know- but it's surely whitey's fault.

Is Barack eligible to go, or does being 50% honky disqualify him?

Meanwhile, Akon has homes in both Atlanta, Georgia and California.

For a rich man, it sure is taking Akon a long time to go "home."
