Major US County Recognizes Continental Africans as a Distinct Ethnic Group From Black Americans

A new day has dawn in American political landscape, the birth of Continental Africans as a separate sub ethnic group from the Black Americans or the more contemporary African American. Montgomery County the third wealthiest County in the United States, main commercial and economic hub of Maryland Washington DC area, which boast of the most educated, and probably the highest number and income of Continental African population in all the United States was the first to officially recognize this distinct sub ethnic group of African Americans in the United States.

Inaugurating the county recognition yesterday was no less than the County Executive Ike Leggett, flank by his assistants Mr. Bruce Adams, and Harold McDougall the designated coordinator from the County for the group. County Executive Ike Leggett in addition to the Latino Community Groups, Asian Community Groups, Middle Eastern Community Groups, officially recognised the Continental African Community Group as a distinct ethnic group for the purposes of services, business, community affairs and all such activities of Montgomery County. He selected representative to the Montgomery African Advisory Council.

Speaking with the group organizer and member of the Council Ms Evelyn Joe who migrated to the United States from Cameroons, the French African accented and articulate organizer of the group said most people don't even stop to think about the distinct identity of Continental Africans. Though we are African Americans we a distinct group, our needs are different, our problems are different, our communities though culturally similar with African Americans are often time very different from African Americans. Now we have first, second, third generations, though some of them are intermix with other African Americans, we are becoming a larger and distinct group.

Further commenting on this was Dan Edokpolo Austin M.D, President of Cignet Health Corp., a Physician and a former Chairman of the Conglomerate organization of All Nigerian American Congress (ANAC) and a Trustee of the Organization and a member of the Council. Dr. Austin said, Continental Africans are well represented in America today, estimates run from 4 to 7 million across America. Unfortunately even the US government statistics on this group is poor because they are lumped together with African Americans. Most US Universities would distinctly reveal the staggering proportion of this group. They are probably the most educated group among all ethnic migrants to the United States and contribute immensely to the educated work force in the United States and most especially Montgomery County in the Washington DC/Maryland National Capital area.

The Advisory Council on the affairs of the African Ethnic group to the County was commenced, other representatives to county on the African affairs included Dunyako Ahmadu, Mumie Barre of the Somalian community, Soffie Ceesay of Gambian community, Emmanuel Edokobi, Amie Jallah, Alexandar Mboukou of Congo, Dave Moktoi, Joshua Moses an Attorney from Silver Spring, Augustin Mutemberezi, Rwanda, Rev. Kennedy Kwasi Odzaffi of Ghana, Chief Alexander Taku of Cameroon, Patrick Tangelo, Ivo Tasong, Winta Teferi Ethiopia.

Indeed this is a great step forward for the new generation of people in these minority communities. Little would it be recognized that Barrack Obama the democratic nominee for President of the United States actually belong this the sub group of the African American Community, how be it, he is from a white American mother from Kansas and married into a Chicago African American community. However in areas like Washington DC, New York, Houston Texas, Atlanta Georgia, the population of the distinct Continental African Americans are quite significant and warrants the specific distinction. We hail this first recognition by Montgomery County, a true leading county in the country. Its such foresight that is necessary to sustain leadership, no wonder that Montgomery county continue to lead the nation and Maryland in many areas of development. County Executive Ike Leggett should be applauded for his vision, leadership and foresight in harnessing the huge growth potentials and holding to task these groups community responsibilities. Its only wise to bring every group to task for the overall responsibility of their community, if we don't, such group would inadvertently be working against the common good of any society and we would be working with our hand tied to one-side of our back to use the term from the democrat.

Speaking with Mr. Bruce Adams of the Montgomery County Executive office, he revealed that in the view of this administration, the world has come to Montgomery County and we welcome them. Immigrants and their hardwork has worked well for America for many generations, we welcome these, legal, productive and well meaning peoples from all nations who come here to seek a better life.

The County Executive is planning a trade mission to Africa soon, we are going to need the input of the African Advisory Council, we also have sister city projects planned for cities abroad and the County will declare September an Ethnic African month.

Our goal is to have the ethnic groups work well together for the overall goal of a better Montgomery county.
We look forward to the Ethnic Continental Africans becoming as organized, and involved as other ethnic groups in our county, like the Latinos and Asian groups to name a few and their meaningful participation for the overall progress of Montgomery county.

“THIS SOUNDS LIKE A CLASSIC CASE OF DIVIDE AND CONQUER”



I personally attended the above mentioned Forum event which featured County Executive Ike Leggett. I have been anxiously meaning to generally summarize this same very exact event to try and let our African-American Brothers and Sisters know exactly what is going on right up under their noses by the same parasitic WHITE Man along with the same Uncle Tom/Aunt Jemima House Negroes which have been responsible for the many diabolical machinations which continue to massively suffocate Indigenous Asiatic/African Aboriginal peoples here in AmeriKKKa (whom which are now currently known as Colored Black Negroes). By the mere title and heading of this particular event, I somehow allowed myself to be deceived into thinking that this event actually had the potential to truly unify and/or uplift us collectively as an African-Based People (meaning Africans here in the diaspora as well as Africans directly from the Mother Continent). What I directly witnessed and experienced at this particular event is probably the most despicable disgusting attempt to cunningly and connivingly entice so-called “Continental Africans” (which are now very numerously occupying the UNITED SNAKES) to kiss as much ass as possible and suck up to certain so-called African-Americans (which are really nothing more than House Negro/Black Krackers) in order to make them look good in front of their European Capitalist WHITE Slave Master(s). Absolutely every industry and area of concern (which was supposed to beneficial to Continental Africans) was owned and/or basically controlled by some Kaukasoid Albino-Mutant (maybe Zionist) WHITE person or some mixed up cross-breed/half-breed of Asian/Middle-Eastern/Indian descent. It appeared to me that certain Continental Africans were only allowed maybe some sort of managerial/director position of these community projects at the expense of selling their own Continental African Brothers and Sisters a capitalist/human resource plan at the expense of their own people. In my opinion, this is what the whole forum was all about (selling/re-selling your own African people up the river in order for a few to have the opportunity to capitalize in the process). I do not recall any proposals for Continental Africans to own their own land, hospitals, schools, learning institutions, etc. What kind of positive collaboration is this? How can you pretend that you are maintaining your Continental African Heritage and Identity when you are being medically taken care of in a WHITE Man’s hospital, taught in a WHITE Man’s school, living in a White Man’s housing, etc? Will you have land allocated to grow your own food and build your own schools? Will you maintain your African SOVEREIGNTY or will you carry a U.S. Driver License, U.S. Registration, pay U.S. Taxes, etc? Will you be spending useless U.S. Money (if it still exist)?



First of all (the last time I checked reality), there are no more “lawful” Republic Counties in the State of Maryland known as Montgomery County, Baltimore County, etc. All counties now functioning here in the United Snakes Inc. of AmeriKKKa are now operating under U.S. bankruptcy (in direct relation to the bankruptcy of 1933). The “Corporate” County of Montgomery (located in the “Corporate” State of Maryland) is a for-profit legal entity PRIVATE CORPORATION which only exists and operates to rob and suck the natural life and labor away from the hard working people in order to satisfy the Foreign Creditors/International Bankers/Blood-Sucking Scum (by way of the Federal Reserve/International Monetary Fund ‘Thug” Syndicate)



And second of all, the only way that these so-called Continental Africans are benefiting from the highly-corrupt Corporate “for-Profit” County of Montgomery is by someway voluntarily con-tracting and compromising their legal Sovereign AFRICAN Status (in more ways than one) in order to receive some type of WELFARE Benefit Privilege. So-called Continental Africans have come all the way to the U.S. in order to rapidly seek out and find who’s ass to kiss and the quickest way assimilate into the U.S. Plantation. Most of them come here with absolutely no genuine unity and/or cultural bond and adhesiveness with Africans here in America. Most of them seem like they will do absolutely anything for their almighty idol (the UNITED SNAKES) even if it means receiving some sort of RFID transmitter chip-device for themselves and/or their children. Most of these so-called “Continental Africans” are no more better than the House Negroes here in the U.S. which are holding back the true progress of Africans-in-America. So-called Africans-in-America here in the UNITED SNAKES are in the same bondage as when they supposedly left the shores of Mother Africa (but now it is a combination of mental, spiritual, and psychological Bondage). And the Colonial Slavemasters are still the same.



Continental Africans are coming here to gladly become the “new” Mules for the “Racist” UNITED SNAKES. In my opinion, this Ike Leggett character is being used to bring in and highlight so-called Continental Africans In the “Corporate” County of Montgomery to increase his monetary interests and favorability which obviously makes the for-profit “Corporate” County of Montgomery look good by way of furthering their corporate motives and for-profit objectives. And what exactly is the STATUS of Ike Leggett? Is he an African-America, Negro-American, Colored-American, Black-American or what? Is he a Boule Member or Mason or in some sort of Greek Fraternity?



I personally find that so-called Continental Africans come here and do not give a damn about exactly what is and has been happening to the deplorable STATUS of so-called Africans here in America. IT SEEMS TO BE EVERY AFRICAN FOR HIMSELF/HERSELF.



CONTINENTAL AFRICANS IN THE U.S. ARE ALL ABOUT THAT WHITE MAN’S DOLLAR AND EUROCENTRIC MATERIALISTIC WEALTH



Note: I talked to a so-called “Continental African” about the U.S. recently attacking Somalia (twice already in approximately 3 months) and this Continental African person did not have a clue nor did they even seem to care. They were more concerned with their newly found “U.S.” Prestige and “U.S.” Occupational Status here in AmeriKKKa.



EVERYBODY COMES HERE AND DRINK THE WINE OF THE GREAT FILTHY WHORE (UNITED SNAKES of AmeriKKKa) AND AT THE SAME TIME GREATLY LOSE A PART OF THEIR OWN CULTURAL VALUES AND TRADITIONAL CUSTOMS.



IS THIS SUPPOSED TO BE HONORABLE?
