In a world where identities and connections are constantly evolving, the bond between African countries and the Black American community is a profound one. It traces its roots back to the dark chapters of the transatlantic slave trade, which forcibly separated families and brought millions of Africans to the shores of the Americas."

We will hear inspiring firsthand accounts from Black Americans who have embraced this opportunity and are now fully immersed in the vibrant cultures, economic opportunities, and social fabric of their chosen African homes."

People please don't believe the hype of this story. I can't speak for other African countries, but Ghana I can . The process to obtain citizenship is slow cumbersome and filled with so much red tape It will cause your head to hurt! The last time Ghana gave out the citizenship to 126 people many of those people had been in Ghana for 10 years waiting. Many that are waiting for citizenship in Ghana now are being nickeled and dimed to death with fees and having to return back to immigration offices regularly. There is a bill pending in the Ghanaian Parliament to address some of the issues but it has been pending for over a year now with no end in sight! Many from the diaspora see the year return as nothing but a money grab to use African Americans and African Caribbeans etc. as cash cows. I know of many African Americans who have been in Ghana upwards to 12 years but now have left Ghana and moved to Rwanda which makes residency so much more easy. Research the facts for yourselves.

This provides a safe place when needed. Americans/Africans you now have a choice, it should be celebrated and not scoffed at. Africa is going to be great Again!!!

I was actually in Rwanda in 2020/2021 and a bunch of us Black Americans met with a minister and discussed allowing Blacks from America to apply for citizenship. WE WERE DENIED! They even went on the local television station and kinda laughed about our request and announced on TV that we will have to follow the rules already set up like everyone else. Unless they changed it after I left in 2021, this is a lie about Rwanda

I did the DNA testing and discovered I am 41% Nigerian! That was a real wake-up call ancestrally. While I would love to visit, I do wonder about the reception from those who are Native Africans. The harsh reality is, many Africans come to America and are extremely mean to Blacks here. Because of that, it's difficult to imagine going to "their" country and being warmly received.

I spent a week or more in Ghana, South Africa, and Zimbabwe and loved all of my visits. The countries are beautiful and full of beautiful people. They are developed as well as many cities in the US and have many of the same amenities. For example, Cape Town South Africa reminded me very much of the Inner Harbour area of Baltimore Md, same types of shopping and restaurants. One thing that I remember and relish the most was the singing and voices of the African people, it warms the heart.

The one thing I would caution my brothers and sisters about is you must overcome the cultural shock in some places, some places things are worse than the worse places in the US.

Much love ♥️ this is beautiful! Thank you 🇳🇬

I was so pleased to see these initiatives documented in a manner that is objective and accessible to all. I am concerned about the theme of cynicism that runs throughout this initiative -criticizing it as INVESTMENT soliciting that will NOT benefit the local people must be addressed by the respective Governments because - make no mistake Africans in the diaspora and peoples of African heritage at large, I believe all wish Africa well and want to see her RISE!!!
As a Jamaican I support the voice of our National Hero Marcus Mosiah Garvey who sid -"Africans UNITE and Africa for Africans " Which simply beckons Africans to take pride in their continent and help it RISE and retake its proper place as the cradle of civilization.

I have noticed that Botswana is not on the list. Please continue with any updates! Thank you!

[grishawinner]

I wish those countries realized how badly African Americans treat Africans in the US. Offer those free citizenships to black people in carribean and Latin America.

One day, one day, the African continent will be fully developed and be a great place. It will take decades, but it can be and will be done. No more neocolonialism. Conduct trade and commerce with Africa as equals.

[lo-limppimpin]

It’s time to put Africa back in charge of the world. With the help of the African Diaspora we can’t fail.❤ 💯

My Spirit is with the continent, but my family doesn't understand why we should reconnect we ith our brother and sisters, on the continent. If I had the expenses to go home, I would.

I don't mind a dual- citizenship; and develop mutual access to Africatown, AL in honor of my Great+Grandfather: Cudjoe Lewis 🙌🏾

[AssanRaelian]

Excellent video & yes it’s a great decision to welcome people of the diaspora free citizenship to the continent of Africa. It’s working well for me. I’m going on 6 years living in Côté d’Ivoire & I love every waking moment of being here.😃❤️🙌🏾

At 3:41 this video has asserted that Kenya announced "consideration" of granting citizenship to black Americans. To date and to my knowledge this "consideration" has not resulted in any recognizable action. I know as I'm currently living here through a residency permit costing about $3, 000. In 2018, there is no specific information indicating that Kenya initiated moves to grant residency or citizenship to Africans in the diaspora. However, some relevant points are:

Immigrants can apply for permanent residency in Kenya after seven years of legally living and working in the country. Applicants must also reside in Kenya for the three years preceding the application and demonstrate skills, education, and finances that will contribute to the country's overall development. In 2010, Kenya extended voting rights to its estimated 3 million citizens living abroad.

It appears that while Kenya has some provisions for immigrants and its diaspora, there is no specific initiative from 2018 to present focused on granting residency or citizenship to Africans in the diaspora.
