The New Afrikan Nation would have a communist economy where “the major means of production and trade” were placed “in the trust of the state.” In addition, MXGM demands “reparations, or repayment for four hundred years of slavery, colonialism and oppression of our people in the United States of America.”

Hilarious. By the way the US will only pay for about 85 years of that 400. You need to petition France, England and Spain for the rest.

Seems like I read this crap before. Like in Esquire Magazine forty years ago. Absurd then, absurd now.

They should be yelling at the Brits, anyway. They're the ones that brought them here in the first place.

Actually, they should be yelling at their African forebears, who sold them to the slavers.

They already have one. It's called "Atlanta."

Give them back New Orleans.

I was there yesterday. Man, that's a big airport.

MXGM has received funding from the New York Foundation and George Soros’s Open Society Institute.

Soros's idea of open society is the America public at each other's throats followed by a bloody socialist revolution. That's pretty clear to me.

If they want it located in the Southeast US, I wonder what all the Bubbas and Bubbetts think about tht idea..."Not in my backyard."

This is nothing more than the recycling of an old Communist idea. In 1928, John Pepper, a white American Communist agitator. issued a tract called "American Negro Problems", in which he advocated a separate republic for African Americans. Another pamphlet put out by the Communist Party in 1935, called "The Negroes in a Soviet America", urged the blacks to rise up and form a Soviet state in the South.

Note that radical Muslims and Islamic states like Iran continue close cooperation with Russia under Putin, who is in the process of restoring the old Soviet police state, censorship, assassinations, secret police, etc., and with China, where the Communist elite have abandoned Marxist and Maoist economics, but not their goals of world power. These black radicals, whether Muslims or Marxists, are another aspect of the subversion of our country, as surely as are the antiwar demonstrators.

I only remember that they were dragged over here on ships, in the worst possible conditions. I took Global History from 1999 - 2001. My memory is also mostly selective :/

Give them Massachusetts

[Peach]

Well you know what? I had relatives who died to free the slaves so I want reparations. From the families of former slaves.

Two can play this game.

[ConservatismNow]

Crush this little treasonous revolt and throw them all in prison. We don't want a repeat of the 1960s, though it seems like that is where we are headed.

[ThomasNast]

Amazing that people born into a country with such a high standard of living can do nothing but complain about things that never happened to themselves personally.

It would be nice to see any sign of gratitude for the efforts this country made to end slavery. Doubt it'll happen.

"We should give reparations along with transportation to Liberia and put them on the terrorist watch list making them ineligible to ever return to the USA."

The Dems would never let them go.

As Sponge Bob said to Plankton in Sponge Bob The Movie when Plankton said he was going to rule the world, Sponge Bob looked down at him and said, "Good luck with that".

The American Indians might have some problems with their goals.

American Africans are becoming a smaller minority by the day. Illegal Aliens and legal immigrants from all over the world are quickly outnumbering them. Within two generations American Africans will be a relic, a throwback, or otherwise a small problem that will be ignored by elected officials of Asian, Latin American and European roots.

[jmaroneps37]

How about giving them the northern half of Alaska?

[Mr. Jeeves]

Any ideas where this new nation should be located in North America?

Haiti. ;)
