    I went to Africa because of Wode Maya and I did not regret it at all. I went to many countries in Africa but ended up in Uganda on a whim and found Uganda to be a great place to escape the horrors of living in the United States. I will most likely end up moving to Uganda.

    The gentleman hit the nail on the head with his parting message when he said that if you are an African American in the diaspora, give yourself and your family the gift of a life time by making a pilgrimage to Africa, even if it is only once in your lifetime. It will change your life. You will never be the same again. The lady is so right about the traumatic experiences that AA's go through in the diaspora. The sad thing is most don't know that they are traumatized, they just feel bad a lot of times but don't know why. I have lived in the west and I can attest to this. It wears you out slowly like acid on metal, makes you sick slowly. Getting out and opening your eyes to reinforce your identity and belonging will bring some unimaginable healing.

      Just in case y’all don’t know. Kagame is responsible for crimes against humanity that has killed over 12 millions lives in Congo. The only way this is possible is if you are complicit with the west. There are multiple UN reports that have been published that states that Kagame is supporting rebels more precisely M23 that are responsible for horrific atrocities that are being committed in the Congo. If you don’t believe me, do a simple Google search. Without western aid and Congo’s minerals how else do u think this little poor country with no minerals got developed so fast? Also Kagame is a dictator that oppresses his political opposition, just Google what happened to the hero of hotel Rwanda . Y’all African Americans claim that you are about black love, yet you are supporting a country that killing millions of Congolese. All this can be discovered with very simple research but y’all ignore this. No problem, one day Congo will tell it story!

    Two problems solved and everyone is benefitting from each other, that's the power of coming together.

      It's wrong to transplant their own experience in America to Africa. The history is very different. Calling your employer Boss is exactly that your Boss giving a job and paying you for it. The fact of life is there is hierarchy in everything we do , people must question what they hear not just run away with it.

    I love these people. They're doing wonderful things. I like when they talked about how safe they felt in Rwanda compared to America. People have this perception that Africa is plagued with violence and war, in reality a lot of the countries in that continent are quite safe. Africa is a paradise if you have some money. The best thing for the diaspora wanting to relocate there would be to work hard, save enough money and then move and start some business.

      Very important comment. Conflict is inescapable. But I believe the conflict between Africans and African in the diaspora is very exaggerated. My interaction with Africans has been more than pleasant. A few have some clashes and run around screaming like it's Israel vs Palestine. Funny enough Israel and Palestinians are in an eternal war despite them being basically the same (in terms of racial phenotype). But no one stresses on them being the same people at war with each other.

Because if they just continue to ignore you like they are, that will be a travesty and a blatant shame and disgrace. You’ve morphed from just that kid who sat in the gutter in Kigali to a legend.
