      Tell your governments to stop sending weapons to our 'warlords'. Amazing how at critical turning points Africans end up with guns (that are not even made in Africa) and Westerners end up with the food produce and natural rescources for cheap...while beautiful Africa is still paying back 'debts' to your passive aggresive corrupt leaders that propagate 'aid'. The nation that is sending aid between Africa and the West is Africa to the west. See how long the west survives with no imports from Africa when it takes a couple of days of snow or bank holidays for people to lose their minds about where their next meal is coming from. Still, you are not to blame 'LunarvanaStrike49', you're only regurgitating what your decietful, corrupt and manipulating leaders and media have fed you. You too are a victim so compassion is had for you.

      Zulu are Hebrew Israelites. We are Hebrew Israelite Shemites NOT African Hamites. Africa is the land of Ham. Other Hebrew Israelites are in the land of Ham. And African governments know the 400 years (Gen 15:13-14) is up. All 17 heathen Gentile nations will be our servants and handmaids. All praises to TMH YAH, God of Israelites.
      Isaiah 14:1-2
      [1]For the ELOHYIM will have mercy on JACOB (Hebrew Israelites), and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
      [2]And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the ELOHYIM for servants and handmaids: and they shall take them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.

      Africa would be THRIVING!!!
      The different cultures, TONS of education!, Tons of leadership, a strong military!, A new found peace wave!, re-kindlement of their original culture along with the mix of cultures they bring back with them from all of the other countries!! and most importantly VALUE!!!

    Mr. Akon hit it right on, for the longest time, Africa was handed the worst card as far as "Branding" is concerned. Most things were depicted as bad, inferior, scary, ugly - even our own skin color. The media emphasized portraying hunger, famine, disease, drought, high temperatures, desert, jungle, wild animals, slums etc etc. The greatest injustice is that even some of us believed it to be true. Now it's time for Africa to shine. God bless Africa.

So, how are you going to get them to come together? How can you get 54 countries to reinvent their image to come together as one? There's no unity on the African continent! We Blacks have unity such as the Civil Rights movement, The 1992 LA riots, and Black Lives Matters! Now, that's unity! Don't hate!

I would have left this country long ago had I known Africa was such a beautiful place.... White America NEVER wanted us to know we had such a beautiful homeland. Now my anger is turning into a desire and commitment to leave the land of my oppressors and go HOME to be a part of the fiber of Africa... to learn and build and contribute and finally belong to a COMMUNITY of people who are connected to me.

The more I learn the TRUTH the more I battle a renewed anger over what has been done to us all. We are the lost daughters and sons of Mother Africa and I fully believe that our HEALING can best happen on AFRICAN SOIL. I've already begun downsizing and selling off all but my work equipment and sentimental belongings to prepare for my future move to Africa. I don't have any idea yet exactly how or when... but I feel God stirring my spirit to go home. We have traced my mothers heritage to West Africa, but don't yet know the tribe. With each video my desire to reside in Africa becomes stronger. I have given myself a 2yr timeline to do whatever is necessary to make it happen. I hope to make my first trip to Ghana in Sept 2020.

      Doctor Pepe Hahahahaha what about white on white crimes??? Whites keep branding the black on black crimes and ignore their black on black crimes which are higher.. And you know nothing of Africa, you guys own the media and portray every other countries as worthless,actually the creme of your society don't go to the Caribbean islands like you, they come in Africa!! 95% of Americans haven't even traveled out of their cities talk less of their states and the only information they get from around the world is through their own biased medias.. How would you know the truth, and for your info, Mauritania is an Arab state though on Africa, those Arabs who colonised it's original population were still doing what they did at first, and the bit about cannibalism well it was a small community, same as you have plenty of white who are mentally disturbed 😂😂😂..you guys created even those terrorist Arabs,luckily you now have a great president! Back to Africa, not all countries in Africa have 80dialects, example Burundi and Rwanda speak one language though they may be called separately kirundi and kinyarwanda, thats One language BOTH those 2 countries share, actually, the ankole language from the East of Uganda is almost the same..

    Bravo! Brotha Akon. I'm African-American and you're right on point. Our stories must be told from an Black African/Pan-African perspective and now is the time. Peace, Black Power and Africa First!

      I suggest that you do your research on African Hebrews, you sound so ignorant ...if you believe the narrative you’re spouting! Your
      White master has taught you well to hate your own and your
      Ancestors, I am Afro Caribbean my great grandparents were slaves
      and their forefathers were African...the way that some AA’s behave
      They will not be returning to Isreal, they’ll be going to the fiery pit!

      Thelma Thomas. What you say is partly true. There's hatred on both sides. But, on the other hand, I have African friends who have shown me nothing but love and have taught me many things. They also know and understand the suffering, pain and struggle of their brothers and sisters living in the Americas. They have not only been able to fill in the gaps about our enslavement but have with great devotion and passion, sought to bring about reconciliation with our brothers and sisters in the Motherland. Furthermore, to stay true to their purpose and mission, I was given an Akan name and adopted by a Ghanaian King. So now I am a part of his lineage. I guess you could say I have been grafted in. My life, destiny and steps are ordered by TMH and the Holy Ancestors. I will leave things up to HIM and the Holy Ancestors as to who are his chosen elect. Shalom.

      AT. You speak as a fool and you presume too much. Your Ancestors and my Ancestors are not pleased with your rude and arrogant behavior towards someone you do not know. I honor my Ancestors daily and I also feed them and pour libation to them. I was even given an Akan name by a Ghanaian King who has also adopted me; making me a part of his lineage. In other words, I have been grafted in again. This is TMH and my Ancestors doing. I have only one master and that is TMH and not the white man. TMH is my joy, strength and my deliverer. So, from now on, it behooves you to be mindful of your actions. Because one day we all will have to give an account for every action, word and deed that is being recored by TMH. Shalom!
