Black Conservatives in America
The African American conservative political movement seeks to emphasize patriotism, independence, self-help, free enterprise, and strong cultural conservatism within the context of Black religion. In the United States, it is mostly associated with the Republican party and recently very loosely aligned with the highly vocal Tea Party. The National Press Club in Washington DC was the scene of an historic event, August 4, 2010. For the first time in U.S. history, black conservative leaders from across America gathered for a national press conference. According to the web site, their purpose was three fold. One, to rebuke the NAACP’s resolution accusing the tea parties of being racist. Two, to introduce themselves to America. Three, to dispel the myth that black conservatives are as rare as Bigfoot sightings. |

All For Africa
The mission of All For Africa, a 501-(c)(3) non-profit organization, is to help secure the long-term sustainability of important community level initiatives in health, education, clean water, micro-financing, community development and skills training on the continent of Africa. All for Africa’s founders have pioneered an internationally recognized approach to development in Africa. Through paradigm-shifting operations in Guinea, which are set to transform the economy of the entire nation, a developmental approach was honed to ensure long-term impact through local ownership and by building local capacity. This approach reflects the expert consensus that successful development initiatives in Africa must empower Africans with the tools they need to take control of their own destiny. |
