🎵 Jews United Financially to Support Israel and Themselves

In 1945, 13 Jewish men met in a library soon after the Holocaust. They united to speak with one voice on Jewish issues and back it up financially. Though small in number, Jews globally wield financial power. African diaspora needs that level of unity and funding.

05:01

😞 Africa Still Suffers From Effects of Berlin Conference

It's hard for African businesses to think continentally due to restrictions. African diaspora abroad can help bridge gaps. With coordinated funding, trade barriers and infrastructure bottlenecks can be addressed. But colonial mindsets still divide Africa 130 years after Berlin conference.

10:05

😡 Same Colonial Powers Still Control African Resources

The colonial powers that divided Africa still control its resources by owning key industries. Africa supplies 75% of minerals to the London Stock Exchange. Africa needs to get ownership in pillars of development like mining and manufacturing rather than just make noise.

Mindmap

Keywords

💡Unity

Unity refers to the need for African people and nations to come together, cooperate, and act as one unified force. As stated in the transcript, the Jewish leaders realized unity was useless without financial resources to back it up. The speaker argues that African unity has been lacking, preventing progress, and that we need to unite across national, linguistic, and other divides.

💡Financial Resources

Financial resources refers to money, capital, assets that can be leveraged to accomplish goals. The transcript emphasizes that the Jewish community pools its financial resources to wield global influence and advance its interests. In contrast, the African diaspora has not yet unified its financial capital into a force for the continent.

💡African diaspora

The African diaspora refers to people of African descent living outside of Africa. The speaker argues the diaspora needs to wake up, understand what is happening on the continent, and play a bigger role. If each diaspora member contributed even a little money annually, it could fund major continental initiatives.

💡Colonizers

The colonizers refers to European powers that colonized Africa and still dominate its economies by extracting resources. The speaker argues real progress requires Africa to break free of resource extraction models and legacy colonial economic control.

💡Berlin Conference

The 1885 Berlin Conference partitioned Africa into colonies of European powers, sowing division and barriers between African peoples and nations. The speaker argues the border and integration issues plaguing Africa today originate from the Berlin Conference's destruction of African unity.

💡Mind

Mind refers to the psychology, mental frameworks and belief systems influencing African actions and progress. The speaker argues that solving Africa's challenges requires decolonizing minds still stuck in division and disunity imposed under colonial rule.

💡Pillars of development

Pillars of development refers to the major economic sectors like mining, manufacturing, finance, infrastructure that enable development & growth. The speaker argues Africa needs to strategize to take ownership of these pillar industries still dominated by former colonial powers.

💡Economic liberation

Economic liberation emphasizes freedom and agency over the economic destinies of African peoples. It means owning, controlling and benefitting from Africa's vast resources. The speaker argues economic liberation was intentionally denied during colonialism, and it remains elusive today.

💡Meaningful associations

Meaningful associations refer to African professional, business and other collaborative groups that are genuinely impactful. The speaker advocates building associations to consolidate funding/capital for major development projects and sectors in Africa.

💡Insanity

Insanity is defined by the speaker as repeating the same actions but expecting different results, analogous to Africa's continued adherence to the inherited colonial status quo.

Highlights

Jewish people unite and speak with one voice on issues pertaining to them and their country.

Jewish unity is useless without financial resources to back it up.

Jews financially control the world with their unity and resources despite their small population.

If African diaspora could contribute even small amounts, it would add up to make a major difference.

Africa has immense land and resources, but little financial control due to disunity.

Colonizers built infrastructure in Africa only to extract resources, not develop the continent.

African diaspora must help Africa progress by providing integrated thinking and an understanding of Africa's true situation.

A single African currency, passport, stock exchange, and monetary policy are needed for a unified Africa.

Africa's division goes back to the Berlin Conference partitioning and is perpetuated by continued mistrust.

Insanity is doing the same things repeatedly while expecting different results - Africa must wake up.

Africa's development is still controlled by colonial powers through ownership of pillar industries like mining.

African disunity and lack of funding prevents participation and control of the continent's pillar industries.

Economic liberation was intentionally denied to black people globally to disempower them.

Meaningful organization and pooling of resources is key for Africa to progress and control its economies.

United financing is the bridge for Africans to begin competing and taking over pillar industries.

play00:05

allow me to share with you

play00:07

briefly that in 1945 13 Jewish men met

play00:11

in the

play00:12

library they didn't even have a place to

play00:15

meet this was soon after

play00:17

Holocaust the ideas they came up with

play00:21

during that

play00:22

meeting were based on two

play00:25

facts two realizations that there was a

play00:28

need for them to unite

play00:30

for them to speak with one voice when it

play00:32

comes to issues pertaining to them and

play00:34

their

play00:35

country they also realized that their

play00:38

Unity was useless if they did not back

play00:41

it up with Financial

play00:43

Resources so that is all they did they

play00:47

United they said we may not like each

play00:49

other as

play00:50

individuals but when it comes to their

play00:54

jewishness when it comes to Israel they

play00:57

stick together like superglue they also

play01:00

pulled out their Financial

play01:02

Resources if I may stand stop for a

play01:04

second use Israel as an example and the

play01:07

Jewish

play01:08

people the Jewish people own this little

play01:11

bitty tiny little piece of land which is

play01:13

a

play01:14

desert there's only 15 million Jews

play01:16

around the

play01:19

world compared to Africa we have the

play01:22

largest landmar on Earth richest

play01:25

continent on Earth and over 400 million

play01:29

African

play01:31

diaspora the

play01:33

Jews their little bitty country that is

play01:36

a

play01:37

desert financially they control the

play01:39

world whether you like it or

play01:41

not when those Americans in

play01:44

charville were holding their ticket

play01:46

torches talking about the Jews will not

play01:49

replace us you never saw a single Jewish

play01:52

man on television

play01:55

complaining they complain with their

play01:58

finances their dollars speak for them

play02:01

Jews did not go and borrow money from

play02:04

anybody they fund

play02:06

themselves they're probably the most

play02:08

powerful people

play02:11

financially their money speaks for

play02:13

them what did we do instead when George

play02:16

Floyd gets killed and many others we on

play02:18

the street we make noise and that's it

play02:21

if everybody that

play02:23

protested could put a dollar and say yes

play02:26

we want to protest but we're also going

play02:28

to do something about

play02:31

it now we could get

play02:34

somewhere we could get

play02:36

somewhere translate those

play02:40

voices into finances let's make that

play02:44

bridge let's create that

play02:47

bridge let's take a page from the

play02:50

Jews let's understand that as black

play02:52

people we are the most IND dangered

play02:54

species on

play02:55

Earth let's also make a commitment that

play02:58

how long are we going to all this carage

play03:00

to go on how long are we going to

play03:03

continue to be

play03:05

stupid it's about the finances my

play03:08

brothers and sisters if we do not bring

play03:11

our finances together if we do not

play03:14

understand that my $85 a month for a

play03:18

year is an investment in not only myself

play03:21

but my children my grandchildren and

play03:23

generations to come then who are we what

play03:26

is the

play03:27

solution understand that the

play03:30

brain drain out of Africa started over

play03:32

400 years ago with the children of

play03:35

Africa who were being taken out of

play03:36

Africa as slaves remember when they were

play03:39

choosing which Africans to take out as

play03:41

slaves they chose the fittest the

play03:44

smartest that who they felt would

play03:46

sustain and survive the rigorous journey

play03:49

across the

play03:50

Atlantic followed by those who have left

play03:54

Africa in recent years in search of

play03:56

greener pastures some running away from

play03:58

farming and Wars

play04:00

but the end result

play04:02

is Africans around the world are

play04:05

building other

play04:06

nations while we are allowing our

play04:09

beloved continent to languish or be

play04:12

exploited the colonizers have been in

play04:15

Africa for

play04:16

centuries all they have succeeded in

play04:19

doing is building infrastructure

play04:21

designed to do nothing but extract

play04:23

resources Out of Africa that's all they

play04:25

have done and that's all they plan to

play04:27

continue to do we're the only ones who

play04:30

can change that

play04:33

Paradigm and that means the African

play04:36

diaspora must wake up that means the

play04:39

African diaspora must understand what is

play04:41

really going on and not understand

play04:44

Africa from the eyes of the colonizers

play04:46

from the eyes of the media that have

play04:48

chosen to paint Africa as a diseased and

play04:50

dying continent in need of

play04:54

rescue let's understand our Africa as

play04:56

African diaspora let's understand our

play04:59

role

play05:01

it's very difficult for African and

play05:03

African businessmen in Malawi in bosana

play05:07

to think

play05:08

Continental they're struggling to ech

play05:10

living in that little bitty country with

play05:13

all the restrictions and the

play05:15

difficulties of reaching to the next to

play05:17

the country next door to then ask that

play05:19

same businessman to think

play05:21

Continental but the people who can help

play05:24

with that bridge the PE people who are

play05:27

already integrated in a way

play05:30

people who can come to Africa with an

play05:31

integrated

play05:33

mind are the children of Africa in the

play05:36

diaspora like I said

play05:38

before a million diaspora with $1,000

play05:41

dollar that's a billion dollars a

play05:44

billion dollars is a lot of money and

play05:46

then you take that 1 billion let's do it

play05:49

year year in and year out Financial

play05:51

Resources we need to pull our funds

play05:54

together we need to begin to look at our

play05:56

continent as a continent what do the

play05:59

market women in Africa need today how do

play06:02

we begin to make it possible for the

play06:05

market woman in Nigeria to sell to the

play06:09

market woman in Kenya what she cannot

play06:11

find in Kenya but it's in Nigeria how do

play06:13

we begin to loosen those trade barriers

play06:17

it's a level one I'm hoping that the

play06:20

African Continental free trade area can

play06:22

begin to address those issues but

play06:24

looking at what we have right now when

play06:27

you see countries still blocking borders

play06:29

still making it difficult difficult for

play06:32

country for Africans to travel uh freely

play06:35

around the continent all of our

play06:38

challenges if you begin to understand

play06:40

them they all go back to the mind we

play06:43

must open up our Africa we need a single

play06:46

African currency it's just that simple

play06:50

we can't talk about the

play06:52

afcfta and still have 54 I mean 44

play06:56

different currencies we can't talk about

play06:59

uh a single Africa if we still have to

play07:02

carry a passport to travel around our

play07:05

country we can't talk about progress

play07:08

within Africa if we still are having to

play07:11

fight all these various wars in the

play07:13

different countries as little bitt

play07:15

different uh military Africa needs to

play07:18

truly begin to look at what are the

play07:21

needs of the continent how do we move

play07:25

1.27 billion people let's have a

play07:28

strategy for that how do we feed 1.27

play07:32

billion people let's have a strategy for

play07:35

that how do we

play07:37

house how do we clothe 1.27 billion

play07:41

people that thinking outside the box is

play07:44

what's really going to give us the

play07:46

results that we desire but as long as

play07:48

Togo is strategizing for Togo as long as

play07:52

jouti is strategizing for

play07:54

jouti we are defeated before the game

play07:58

even begins and that's exactly where

play08:00

they want us to be that's exactly where

play08:03

they put us with the Berlin Conference

play08:05

and that's why it saddens me to think

play08:08

over 130 years later since the Berlin

play08:10

Conference we are still suffering from

play08:13

the effects of the Berlin Conference so

play08:16

again our

play08:19

challenges while they are many there are

play08:22

challenges that we can address but for

play08:24

us to be able to address these simple

play08:27

challenges like border issues need for a

play08:32

passport single

play08:34

currency single monetary policy single

play08:37

Stock

play08:38

Exchange basic things that we should

play08:41

just do

play08:42

automatically it goes back to the mind

play08:45

because we get so divided the French are

play08:49

coming in if you're Fran ofon so to

play08:51

speak why do we even call ourselves

play08:54

frankophone if we're

play08:56

anglophone look at Echo us and the echo

play09:00

in West Africa they can't come to an

play09:03

agreement on something that is so

play09:05

obvious and so terribly

play09:07

needed I don't want to sound like a

play09:10

broken record our problem goes back to

play09:12

the Mind our ability to solve our

play09:17

problems it starts with the mind I'm

play09:21

sorry to say but it is suddening it is

play09:24

disappointing it is frustrating and as a

play09:27

mother you look at it and say my

play09:28

children

play09:29

what

play09:30

happened why can't we wake up from this

play09:34

Slumber why can't we wake up and say

play09:37

enough is enough we got to come together

play09:41

we got to trust each other and we've got

play09:44

to protect and defend each other against

play09:46

these Invaders how

play09:48

long are we going to continue to

play09:50

mistrust each other to not believe in

play09:53

each other how long are we going to

play09:56

continue to be stupid and continue to do

play09:59

the same things over and over and

play10:01

expecting a different result Albert

play10:04

Einstein called it

play10:07

Insanity I would hope we can all look in

play10:09

the mirror and say Insanity nor

play10:12

more prior to

play10:15

Independence if you were colonized by

play10:17

the British those are British companies

play10:20

if you were colonized by the uh

play10:21

Portuguese by the

play10:23

Germans by the French those are the

play10:26

major Employers in your country it

play10:29

Independence they just lay low but

play10:31

they've never left they're still mining

play10:34

they are still running most of the

play10:35

industry 75% of the minerals being

play10:39

traded at the at the land on Stock

play10:41

Exchange are coming from Africa so we

play10:44

need to

play10:45

strategize and see how we can get into

play10:49

manufacturing get into mining those

play10:52

pillar of development that are currently

play10:55

owned by the same people who have been

play10:58

oppressed ing us how do we

play11:01

strategize to get ourselves into

play11:05

ownership of the pillars of development

play11:08

because we can talk all we

play11:10

want but if we don't get into these

play11:13

sectors we are always going to be noise

play11:16

makers I like to agree with Professor

play11:18

lumba when he says he doesn't blame the

play11:20

Chinese the Chinese are taking advantage

play11:23

of our Africa because we are missing in

play11:25

action I was talking to the managing

play11:28

director for the Zambian development

play11:30

agency he said Ambassador every day I go

play11:33

to work I have Chinese lined up outside

play11:35

my office not even zambians are lining

play11:39

up let alone Africans or African

play11:41

diaspora so what are we supposed to do

play11:43

we need development in our countries but

play11:46

our people are not coming in to take

play11:49

advantage of the opportunities that's

play11:51

one the other issue is a lot of these

play11:54

contracts are contractor funded and that

play11:57

brings us to issue problem number two so

play12:01

not only are we not

play12:03

organized in this

play12:06

meaningful associations we also don't

play12:09

have the funding because if we were to

play12:11

be organized meaningfully we could then

play12:14

pull our resources together so we're

play12:16

defeated because we don't have the

play12:18

funding to participate in the bidding

play12:21

process for this contracts so where are

play12:25

the opportunities the opportunities

play12:27

start with the realization that where we

play12:30

are defeated is unity of purpose having

play12:34

associations that we can pull our funds

play12:37

together so we can realize that when we

play12:40

begin to compete

play12:42

financially we can begin to take over

play12:45

those pillars of development within our

play12:48

countries the way things are

play12:51

today it is very difficult for us as

play12:55

Africans to get into those areas

play12:59

those sectors those pillars of

play13:02

development because we are defeated

play13:06

financially we must understand that the

play13:08

one thing that was denied black people

play13:11

around the globe no matter where you see

play13:14

us it could be in Papa New Guinea it

play13:17

could be in Brazil in Africa in the

play13:20

United States in Europe in China the one

play13:23

thing that we were denied is economic

play13:26

Liberation that was intentional

play13:29

how then do we

play13:31

regroup and build our

play13:34

own Financial nucleus because as long as

play13:38

we are still having an idea and going to

play13:41

them for funding we are still

play13:44

enslaved so it goes back to how do we

play13:47

create those meaningful

play13:51

relationships goes back to what we are

play13:53

doing is

play13:54

adding
