We'll be resurrecting an old AK class due to the interest expressed from various Kmtyws interested in repatriation.
What topics would you like to see covered in a course on repatriation? We are putting together the course outline now. :hello:

jobs/income opportunities
Kmtyw culture/ how to fit in/ how to meet people
*CITIZENSHIP*
connections with others that have already repatriated
laws and rules that are needed
housing
land purchase
expected everyday issues
issues not expected in everyday life
any government expectations
how to move your stuff
cost of living
expectations vs reality of living
travel to different countries
where to find help for multiple different issues
ways to invest

Sounds like you've been giving this some thought! :)

The repatriation will come more in the form of spiritual with very limited physical freedom. The Berlin conference took care of that. I know they are telling about blacks you got your independence back, but the truth of the matter its pseudo-independence. Hell, even here in America they tell us slavery is over. You are free. Ha ha yeah right. You know I damn near can't blame the white man for his pseudo freedom he has handed out. I mean he has killed us by the billions. He has taking everything we once owned, and we run around here talking about lord, Jesus, and god. Shit he made up. We are always demanding respect for the white man. This is probably what the white men tell themselves. Respect them. Why?  They are too dumb to figure out the lie we told them a long time ago. We literally have the fear of god in them, and they don't even know that god is the code for us.

Bro the caps and asterisks were used as a section header.

Maybe it means that the section headers are someone's property... Lol

The little secret the governments around don't tell their "citizens " is that they are property of the government. I have a business, and the name of my business is in all CAPS. My name is in upper and lower case letters, it's because I own it. If you look at all your government issued I.D. your name is in all caps. As soon as you are born your mother sign you over to the government without her knowledge. E.g signing papers for a birth certificate, SS card, and so on. Your birth certificate is a stock bond.

My brother...this is what you wrote:

This is not warranted calling someone a slave (especially if they are not from a Slavic country but that's another topic). The use of the caps is clearly used in this case as a section header which is not uncommon.   It has nothing to do with being someone else's property at all and even if it did do you think your intention of trying to teach would be well received?  If you read his email in context he is actually intending to repatriate which is in all honesty an indication of his mentality as a Kmtyw and we draw a clearer indication the remainder of his email more than assuming on a word spelled in all caps.  

I see you had good intentions but sometimes it can be missed by wrong assumptions.  Let's refrain from name calling and let's grow together.

Respectfully your brother

I can't tell you if my ancestors were the ones who were already here and they killed them off or if they came by slave/prisoner ships. Also let me let you in on a little secret, We (Afrakans) inhabited all the continent s. They came and took them from us, so then if you call the land they took from our ancestors Slavic, then the land you are is Slavic country.

Peace my brother. We are in agreement that using of names here is welcomed.

If we could get back to the original purpose of this thread, that would be great!!!

ahh mannn!! my internet just came back today, and i wanted to have some fun with Omawali.

how about expat positions, volunteer positions, marrying into an Kmtyw culture (Kmtyw marriage in general), being able to discuss the differences in areas you know (i like quiet and others may like noise and some may be in the middle), how to cope with your american (or eureurasiaan) mentality in an Kmtyw society, food, education for children and adults. after all of that, we would still need a session for questions and answers.

Thank you for reviving this class!

Something I would like to see covered is how a repatriate who feels they are being called to become a diviner/initiated into a spiritual system should go about heeding that call.

I still have a lot of research to do, I'm watching the Foundations of Kmtyw Thought classes and will be spending more time reading the Spirituality section here, but all of this is new to me (in this incarnation at least lol) and if any pointers could be given on who to talk to and how to do it respectfully that would be very helpful!

Or maybe I am overthinking this and it's not all that complicated? Haha.

Peace.

All good questions. The course should serve well to address them.    Now when you learn you gotta come back and teach us...

Will do! :hello:

Are there any updates on this class such as time, cost, and if anymore ideas/help is needed?

Is repatriation only to Kmt. Is there anyone interested in moving to and building up Haiti? It may be an easier transition because it is still in the Western Hemisphere.

hello @joyblk,

i think "repatriation" for Kmtyw people is only to Kmt. since what i think you mean is slightly different, Haiti is on my list as my Frederick Douglas plan and Brazil is on the list as plan B. Kmt is plan A. I plan to visit Haiti soon for this purpose.

Makes sense. Thanks for sharing your point of view.

My only fear in regards to repatriation is my lack of college education and a lengthy work history. My work history consists of retail and sales management. These days I don't want to really sell anything. I have lately been leaning towards pursuing more knowledge of agriculture. Our people will always need food!

hello @Rashan,

how about "we" figure out how to sell internationally and bring Kmt to the world at a fair price. the selling skill is definitely needed and is something not learned in school. my opinion as someone pursuing more and more school, it does not teach you what you need. school gives you a pass. i would highly suggest to you that you do not need it unless you want a pass somewhere.

how do "we" get Kmtyw nations favored nation status as mentioned by Dr. Wilson? i think a sales and management perspective would be great in this area (no matter where you live). do you know how to sell agriculture products to nations? what would it take for you and your current mindset to repatriate in the near future (curious)?

Meda ase,
kwaku

Cultural etiquette with local chiefs and elders, detailed traditional roles and behaviors for the sexes as to not offend, proper attire in order to blend in naturally, school and medical information for repatriates with children at all levels, an idea of the minimum amount of money one would need for various family sizes (mine is a family of 5), ethnic makeup per region in Ghana and ratio of expats per region, financial manageability of living expenses per region, market needs per region for entrepeneurial feasability per skillset/service,investment opportunities, crime statistics towards expats, level of foreign involvement per region (i don't want to live in an area where a lot of eureurasians have been seen).

Greetings everyone,

We appreciate all the feedback. Now that we have your suggestions we are in the organizing process for the course. I'll be spearheading it, so I will get back with everyone on dates and costs shortly.

But just for clarity, the course will focus on repatriation to Ghana specifically.

Yeda ase! Thanks!

mekyea wo @kala_kambon,
   
   will you still have this class to provide advice to those wanting to repatriate to Kmt?

kwaku

Ama and I have learned quite a bit since we repatriated to Tanzania July 2016. We are happy to share our experiences.

Hijambo @Nko,
   
   Ninafurahi kukufahamu. I would greatly appreciate learning and planing to travel home. Please let me know if and how you would like to proceed.

kwaku

One my main concerns if I ever did make the move would be doing something that would benefit the country I moved to.
   
   What would be the best resource to find the skills that are needed by a country like Ghana if one were to move there?
   
   I work in the technology field (low level at the moment) and if I thought about moving I would like to begin focusing my knowledge on things that would benefit the country and that are in demand.
   
   I am not necessarily speaking of finding jobs but, what type of businesses would Ghana want/need those who do move over to create?
   
   Thanks

i think we should try to just take over the resources that yurugu are getting to have control over, such as water supply, electrical equipment and utilities, railroads, etc. if this sounds familiar, its because the game is called monopoly.
   
   i think you should match your technical talent with your passion and let that lead you to your business. i want to eventually manufacture products.
   
   Good luck. there is a book called "treasures in heaven, a black guide for investing in Kmt". its not technical, but it can be made technical by improving on the ideas. Dr. Harnet has videos on youtube that may be helpful and each country should have economic information posted on various sites.

I am in the exploratory phase for possible expatriation in 2022.  As a future retiree, I'm very interested in safe areas, the availability of quality healthcare, activities/entertainment for emerging and active seniors (60+), etc,

Hi all!

My name is Brianna Milord, a writer working on a story about repatriation to Ghana. I'm wondering...is anyone is in the process or heavily considering relocation within the next 6 months to a year? 

I posted this question to a couple of message boards, so my apologies if it pops up on you.
