Re: The other aspect of Pan-African

The majority of African Continentals struggle everyday on a daily basis, and most do not find opportunity to travel to the Diaspora, they are very poor and experience the most stigmatizing immigration policies. Immigration is harder on us, what do you expect from us? We struggle, and are not standing idly by... We struggle as continental peoples can do even if we have nearly zero help, zero guidance form the Diapora for lifting ourselves out of the mire...
As for the majority of immigrant Africans in Western countries, they don't all walk around looking flashy; they do the best they can to provide for their families back home. We have relatives on the Motherland we have to care of, we don't want have the time for the bling bling crap.
The African Diaporans however, are neglecting us to the point where we end up caring less about them. This needs to stop! Who will step to the plate with a vision for all parties concerned??
