BACKGROUND

When Europeans started the Trans-Atlantic enslave trade in the XVI century, they created the Trans- Atlantic Enslavement Trade Triangle (Europe, Africa, Americas). Europe, where it started with first the leg (brought to Africa manufactured goods, weapons, even liquor to Africa in exchange for slaves) funded and insured by European businesses, monarchs and governments. In Africa, (2nd leg) they would exchange these products for people they enslaved and transported them on ships to various plantations and countries in the Americas (3rd leg). When ships discharged the enslaved people, they would load sugar, rice, indigo, tobacco, cotton, molasses, rum and other commodities and export them to Europe. This was the route used to deprive Africa of well over 20 million of its citizens and their descendants, on many fronts the best ones for over 3 centuries (XVI-XIX). This brought Africans and their descendants to many corners of the world creating about 400 million African Diaspora today.

CONCEPT PAPER

Profits

African enslaved people were very profitable to slave traders because they were the very best in the world in: farming and iron works and able to produce best farming equipment. Contrary to popular belief and propaganda, it was not necessarily because of their physical ability.

WHY UBUNTU AWAKENING SUMMIT

Today the African Diaspora is about 400 million across the globe, where most left the continent against their will through S. Tomé ( by the Portuguese) and then through Ghana, Nigeria etc (by the British). So Umoja Generational Wealth decided to create the first event of its kind (Ubuntu Awakening Summit) where we reverse the triangle journey; leading our brothers and sisters in the Diaspora spiritually, mentally and physically to return (go back home). Umoja Generational Wealth will lead them from Europe (plus rest of world) to the Americas and to Africa, through the same routes which saw them leave and will see the descendants coming back home to Africa.

HOW WILL WE DELIVER ON THIS MAMMOTH TASK?

Through various live activities:
1. Village Wisdom – where our elders transferred wisdom, news, events, knowledge, teaching,
etc to the younger generation. It was a daily activity in every one of our villages.
2. African Drumming – the village information and communication tool
3. Our Village – how did our ancestors live? Come and experience it for yourself.
