Fascination of our Black ancestors is Great to a point: Then YOU must do SOMETHING: That's a bigger point !

I totally agree that we must take action. Someone sent met a quote from anonymous person. " Do not ask the Lord to guide your footsteps, if you are not willing to move your feet." I live by this, it is like faith without works is dead from the scriptures.

Makes a lot of sense to me, less we fall asleep on the couch, intrigued over OTHERS works. I like that quote a lot.

Hello to All,

Firstly, present day Black Americans' ancestors were slaves. Therefore, Black Americans did not come from anything great. We were born in captivity and we are still in captivity. So, before what Jamaal is saying could become a reality Black Americans must first desire to become a sovereign people or have complete independence on a portion of this continent that we could call out for reform country with borders to pursue life, liberty, happiness and prosperity in humble on way. Am I making any sense? Or is it that you all believe that our sovereignty or independence is not worth while or possible or feasible, which is it?

Tell me what to think.

Harry, there is something called "drive". Where does it come from. If you lift your foot up as if to step on a roach on the floor, it will run as it sees the shadow of your feet for fear of danger. In this case, the drive for the roach to pick-up-the-pace was the fear of death. Black Americans need a "drive" to pick up the pace. Merely getting a sovereign nation, from my experiences, IS NOT ENOUGH for black Americans to pick-up-the pace. However, knowing we came from great stock, i.e., kings and queens prior to 2000 years ago along with their accomplishments may serve to stimulate "drive" to get blacks in this country GOING.

Hello Jamal,

I fully understand your concept and I praise you. However, I have two problems with your focus. Firstly, present day Black Americans came from slaves and not from kings and queens. Secondly, the only drive could be successful in is to desire to become a sovereign people or have complete independence on a portion of this continent with borders that we could worship God in our own way, pursue life, liberty, happiness and prosperity. Then the things that you say now will come after and be secure. Insert at the Elijah Do you understand what I am saying?

Mr. Elijah Muhammad started out for the most part saying what I am saying now, but he soon went off track and created a big business using the monies of our poor Black people to become rich and he became immorally corrupted, and screwing as many sisters as he could. What Elijah did Moses did not do and neither will I. Do you see my point?

Jamaal, the Exodus was not for sale. The children of Israel did not have to purchase their Exodus. Likewise, Black America's sovereignty is not for sale by me.

You must promote an advocate to Black Americans that we must have the desire to become a sovereign people or have complete independence on the portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders and nothing else, less we become confused.

Tell me what you think.

Harry......A sovereign nation for black Americans is like offering broccoli to a youth. The broccoli is very good for the youth, but it does not have the taste as a chilli dog loaded with cheese. Black Americans have been spoiled by successes of the American nation. Seems to me that our people a stimulant for them to realize what is good for them. History has a good way of developing self esteem which has to be entered into the equation for blacks to react toward a nation of their own. This is why my divine solution will be successful because it offers black Americans not only a sovereign nation but links them up to a wealth of natural resources.
