I think he should invest all his money on this wonderful idea.

Can we finally carry out the Monroe-Lincoln transfer plan for former African slaves? Liberia was the plan, but Senegal will do.

Hold on. Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, Goodyear, AT&T, Walmart, and Facebook could finance this with their pocket change. I say they should put their money where their mouths are and back this idea.

Good for him - he’s participating in creating and building something, which is a lot harder than endlessly criticizing and tearing down what others have built.

It is smart of him to request lots of sculptures to be made. Then Antifa and BLM will have something to tear down when they riot.

As Mr. T used to say, "I pity da' fool." Romantic notions about Africa rarely survive contact with the reality of just how wretched the continent and its peoples are. For those interested in the subject, Keith Richburg's Out Of America: A Black Man Confronts Africa is an excellent introduction.

Richburg, a capable and well-regarded Black Washington Post reporter assigned to Africa, found that whites and foreigners were exempt from the misery and oppression of Africans by Africans. Treated humanely and with respect by Africans, Richburg realized that he was privileged because of his American accent and passport. As Richburg concluded, "Thank God my nameless ancestor, brought across the ocean in chains and leg irons, made it out alive," he concludes. "Thank God I am an American."

As for Akon's ludicrous scheme, most Africans will suspect that he is working a scam of some sort. And no one with significant cash will invest because it cannot pass even minimal due diligence.

I cannot wait.

Akon ‘ran into a lot of African-Americans that didn’t really understand their culture,’ the 47-year-old said.


But Wakanda is fiction. He’s not actually presenting their culture. It’s a silly premise, but it’s his money.

Cool.

Just get blm’s mailing list for your first colonists.

You can join the other all-black paradises like Haiti and Zimbabwe.

I wonder if they’ll have it hidden and shielded...

If he really wants this to work, I’ll be glad to rent him some protestant work ethic.

Cultural appropriation, you see, cannot be bought. He can pay for it by the hour.

Only $6 billion for a city? Such a deal! What’s not to like? Is his name Akon, or A CON?
