On paper this sounds real good and to be honest it may be the only real viable option for us blacks, but in reality pulling it off will almost take a mirical and would take at least 2 generations before we can begin to think about implementing something like that... Let me explain why, with out writing a book on the subject..
Being raised around a lot of Pan African Nationalist, my father being one I was exposed, early on to the utopia, united Africa that is a crossbetween the fable Wakanda, and the film coming to America...
We dream of a rich lush land with all the indemnities and luxuries of the States yet all the value and rich tradition of classical Africa.
And in order to foot the bill we will tap into our vast supply of natural resources..
Before I explain the difficulties of that scenario let me digress by throwing in this short but very explanatory story.
Imagine a goat farmer in any Nation say in West Africa... Supposed this guy works hard every day making a modest but honest living... Now supposed he is informed that two miles below his farm possibly lies a huge uranium deposit..
At this point no one is certain but to be sure the land has to be surveyed and probed, something that could take up to two years..
For his cooperation and land they are willing to give him the sum of 400,000 US and another 700,000 if they do find what they are looking for.. They assure him that this is the best offer that he can get and if he plays around too long they may pull it off the table..
Duke says fuck that and go to the Russians and Chinese who both say they cannot offer that much up front money with out first knowing whats down there and are not willing to transport the proper equipment needed for such a elaborate survey..
Comes to find out the Americans was using some new sonar technology where they blast sound waves at where they feel are most likely to have precious metals and are able to offer more money much quicker due to their extensive data..
Now what if the guy takes the money, with one stipulation from his government (who also is getting paid handsomely for the deal), that is the American company has the right to protect their investment with both US troops and their own private security..
Now fast forward ten years later, these guys are still their, in accord with the lease, and are racking in billions of dollars..
Enter the new African Blacks from America... Now do you think we would have the power to kick those guys out, also even if we somehow did, do you think we would have the technical skills much less the equity to do what major countries like Russia and China failed to do?
Yes I know there are a lot of tech blacks in this country, my next question is how many of them do you think would give up their high living standards only to risk going to a established Nation who is sure to undergo a tremendus amount of growing pains..
Well what happen in the goat farmer story is happening all over Africa and so much of our resources is A- nearly impossible to get to, and B- most of the land with the resorces being leased out to foreign nations with permission to protect the land.. and unless they were to somehow get nuclear overnight, expecting to win a war against them is not a realistic thing..
But as far fetch as that story is, its the most plausible choice we have.. Because if we stay here and continue living as the bottom end of the working class sector, as the jobs start to disappear so will us the workers.. Not knowing those jobs are never coming back, no matter who we elect in office..
So going back to Africa has to be the plan but in reality, its going to take at least two generations of fighting and proper education in both Africa and us blacks here... The bad news is that perhaps we already sailed past the even horizon or past the point of no return, being that we are perhaps 40 years behind, but the good news is that there are some Pan African's, today, such as Umar Johnson and others who are now finally addressing the voluminous task that faces our people in the near future..
The clock is ticking and we have very little time goofing off and sitting back expecting white Jesus to come and rectify the situation...
