I am an African-American, descendant from Kings and Queens of Africa.

I was brought to America on slave-ships, and enslaved in a country that did not recognize me, or count me as a man.

I was sold to the highest bidder, who, for over four hundred years stripped me of my wealth, caused me to forget my name, my native tongue, and the rich culture flourishing in my native land.

My dignity and self esteem died back then, and was buried so deep, that I am struggling today to know, who I am?

When I look at my self in the mirror, I see people of many colors. Sisters and brothers genetically endowed with traits that extend across all racial and ethnic lines.

I have survied against all odds in this new land of mine...and, no one can ignore my destiny.

I am proud to be an African-American; A people with many skin colors and creeds. Endowed with genetic backgrounds, for the integrity and skills that I need; to improve my life by the hour while working hard to speed-up the pace. All the while knowing that unity is power, and support for a strong economic base.
