Send us Fan MailThis week's edition of Afrika in Focus is a special examining the legacy of Dr Martin Luther King Jnr who was assassinated 55 years ago on April 4 1968 and asking the question whether Africans in America have lived a dream or a nightmare.We start by stating that contrary to what has been said Dr King was murdered by the US government and NOT the scapegoat, James Earl Ray.We state how the constitution of the United States classifies Africans in America as 3/5 of a human being and that despite Africans building America to make the United States the country it is today, America WAS NOT BUILT for Afrikan people.We also tell of how King was under constant surveillance by the dangerous Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) led by arch anti Black racist, J Edgar Hoover.We explain some of the reasons why King was murdered by the state including his stance on Black Economic Empowerment.We then give the reasons why contrary to what many perceive, Africans in America have lived a constant NIGHTMARE including police killings, high unemployment, homicide rates and high incarceration.  We pour scorn on the so called success stories of the likes of Oprah, Jay Z, LeBron James and Barack Obama by citing the Black Secret Society called The Boule.We conclude that the ideals Martin Luther King Jr had about the integration of Afrikan people into wider White American society that has NEVER accepted them, never materialised and that Afrikans in America have lived the American Nightmare!!Sponsor a Ghanaian farmer: Grow For Me | Now everyone can farm and trade!Sources:THE BOULE: HISTORY OF THE BLACK SECRET SOCIETY - Bing videoMartin Luther King last speech: Full MLK: I've Been to the Mountaintop Part 3/3 - YouTubeMartin Luther King -- Burning House : Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and The Burning House - YouTubeMartin Luther King --- Nightmare of the dream: Martin Luther King Jr. says his dream has become a nightmare ! - YouTubeMartin Luther King - Black Economic Empowerment - Martin Luther King on Black Economic Empowerment (Coca Cola Boycott 1968) - YouTubeMichael Jackson they dont care about us lyrics : (1) Michael Jackson-They Don't Care About Us (Lyrics) - YouTubeAkon - America not built for African people:  (1) Akon: ‘ America Was Never Built For Black People - YouTubeBlack wall street:  (1) THE BLACK WALL STREET DOCUMENTARY - YouTubeSupport the showDonate/Support the show:    https://www.buzzsprout.com/1793098/supportWe offer a consultation session for those who wish to relocate to Ghana , do business in Ghana , buy land, buying a property or even starting  business in Ghana.  We offer professional support tailored on your needs and wants. We provide valuable information that can assist you in your relocation like the Ghana card how/where to register your business.We can also signpost you to other agencies that can help in your relocation as well as business and investment opportunities.We charge a rate of US$30 for an hour's consultation or US$20 for a 30 minute consultation briefing. To book your consultation please email [email protected] on Youtube - just look for the Ghana/Afrika in Focus podcast on Youtube and click the notification bell so that every time I upload a new podcast it automatically comes to your feed. Tell your family and friends.
