European Struggling for Africans Reparations

I have so many times proclaim upon this black forum of reasoning, that if there or any Europeans, who are convinced, that their Ancestors have committed the serious crime of slavetrading activities against African people, then they should create an organization, and teach their own people, that they must make corrections, by restoring African people to their orignal dignity, by giving them Justice once and for ever. I have always said, that it would serve a more useful purpose, for them to work among themselves, instead of hanging around in the black community, sowing the seeds of divide and rule. I was not even aware, that such an organization exist, until some one sent it to me recently. Now there will be no excuse, for Europeans, to be hanging around in the black communities, making mischieve and causing confusion, when there is liberation work to be done among their your own people. Those of you who are hanging around black villages, and are trying to make up your own rules, should now refrain, and get involved in some serious liberation work among your own people, just to prove that you are genuinely interested in true Justice, and the true liberation of African people everywhere. I do wish you all properity in this very serious and positive direction.
Again I send many oceans of blessings and self determination to African people everywhere

CURE Statement of Belief
We, an organization of white Americans, express our deep remorse for the ongoing wrongs committed by our people against Black men, women and children in the U.S. and throughout the Diaspora who are descendants of enslaved Africans.

We see the United States of America as immoral from its very foundation because of the lie of white superiority and the commission of the crime of slavery, and we dedicate our lives to fundamental change within ourselves, and in our society.

We dedicate our time, energy, talent and resources to support and advocate, without reservation, the movement for full and complete reparations to the descendants of enslaved Africans in the U.S. and throughout the Diaspora.

We support and advocate reparations proposals put forward by Black leaders, recognizing that white Americans have no part in deciding what is required to repair and restore the descendants of enslaved Africans individually and collectively, and that these decisions belong to Black people alone.

We state that full and complete reparations must be paid not only for slavery and the atrocities that flowed from slavery, but for the ongoing effects of slavery that exist today.

We mourn the fact that many things can never be restored to the descendants of enslaved Africans: the lives of countless people, the connection to family lineage and home, and the mother tongue and original identity.

We appreciate the efforts of white abolitionists toward emancipation, while realizing that true emancipation of the enslaved Africans will not be achieved until their descendants enjoy the freedoms that reparations will provide.

We state that the U.S. Government is obligated to provide financial and other support for citizenship choices of the descendants of enslaved Africans, whether they choose full and equal U.S. citizenship, semi-autonomous or autonomous self-government, dual citizenship or migration/repatriation.

We express our intent to call upon the families of the white American aristocracy that directly benefited from slavery, to voluntarily pay their fair share of the reparations debt with wealth gained from slavery, the slave trade, and slavery related enterprises.

We are truly grateful to the Black community for allowing us an opportunity through the reparations movement to make amends, however inadequate, for the crimes of chattel slavery and slavery's ongoing effects - crimes most unconscionable, most damaging, and most burdensome to the human spirit.

We express remorse for all crimes committed in the name of white supremacy and we pray for justice to be done in the United States of America and around the earth.
