Empowering the African Diaspora: Preserving Our Cultural Legacy
The Descendants Coalition Foundation is dedicated to transitioning towards a noble cause, driven by the mission of the African Diaspora Heritage Coalition (ADHC). Our regional initiative focuses on preserving the cultural legacy of Descendant Rural Communities by:
- Reclaiming ancestral sanctuaries and sacred sites
- Fostering organized public engagement and community involvement
- Promoting socially conscious travel and cultural tourism
Through this initiative, we aim to educate visitors and safeguard the fundamental values, ingenuity, and cultural contributions of people of African descent. By empowering stakeholders, we strive to actively engage in the realms of economy, culture, and language, ultimately preserving our rich cultural heritage.
Founder’s Message: Preface
Propagated World Philosophy and Philosophical Pathway for Reclamation of Enslaved Progenitors
Dear Descendants of the Enslaved,
It is with great pride that I invite you to participate in a historic event. This event is the culmination of many years of seeking like-minded activists dedicated to honoring African Progenitors in death and restoring their rightful place in history. This site is dedicated to the greatness of the formerly enslaved African Americans, who are truly national and world treasures. They are heroes, deserving of a representative seat alongside Native American brethren and equally to the European Founding Fathers of America’s great nations.
This site is dedicated to the reclamation of the Enslaved Progenitors’ legacy. It proposes a “Call for Action” to individuals and organizations ready to respond to the insidious and pervasive actions of politicians, particularly our National Congress, and other entities that attempt to denigrate and disregard the long and proud history of enslaved African Americans, of whom we are the progeny. Please excuse the length of this document, but accept it as a comprehensive call for action for African American rural-diaspora-descendant communities.
We say “No More” and “Enough is Enough!!”
Here at the Institute, we’re not giving up the fight! Rather, we’re exploring possibilities and seeking to Partner with HBCUs, to determine a “Historical Common Denominator” and the re-institutionalization of a Belief System” in keeping with original African Knowledge. We seek to abolish an intemperate process, introduced by Whites through Slavery — a life-changing condition that has plagued the lives of Black people to this day. We consider 2024 the opportunity for a clarion call of “unification” to the Progeny and Descendant communities that are faced with the obligation of initiating change through legislative enactment. ***
Genesis of and Impetus for Present Action
H.R.40 – Commission to Study and Develop Reparation Proposals for African Americans Act Sponsored by Rep. Jackson Lee, Sheila [D-TX-18] (Introduced 01/04/2021 117th Congress (2021-2022)
The Act was cosponsored initially by 189 Congress persons from 40 States. The purpose of the Act was:
· To address the fundamental injustice, cruelty, brutality, and inhumanity of slavery in the United States and the 13 American colonies between 1619 and 1865 and to establish a commission to study and consider a national apology and proposal for reparations for the institution of slavery, its subsequent de jure and de facto racial and economic discrimination against African Americans, and the impact of these forces on living African Americans, to make recommendations to the Congress on appropriate remedies and for other purposes.
· Originally introduced by Congressman John Conyers, Jr, Bill in 1993, the Congressional Preservation Act of 2021 acknowledges the persistence of an age-old problem that has hindered the seeking of reparations for the wrongs and ravages of slavery. It formally legislates a process and path forward, seeking reparations, equity and correctives of racial inequities
· imposed by European descendants through consistent and increasing denial that racism existed at all. This denial was highlighted by Professor Michael L. Blakey, a National Endowment for the Humanities professor at the College of William & Mary, where he directs the Institute for Historical Biology, in his 2020 essay entitled “Archaeology Under the Blinding Light of Race.”
Essential requirements:
Collaboratively with the Institute, we encourage African American academicians and HBCU institutions located in “Delta Regional Authority Territory” to convene specialists in a public forum to participate in and develop a statement of resolution to address ill-fated historic “Descendant Communities,” halt desecration of enslaved progenitor’s sacred burial places across the Mississippi River Delta-Basin. From the tombs the ancestor’s voices demand for us to “Unite together To Build a National Movement to Defend & Preserve Black Sacred Spaces”
Clarion Call: “Unify for a Common Cause”
· As Chairman of the Institute and developer of the Coalition Please join the African Scientific Research Institute, (hereafter “Institute”), primarily the Institute working simultaneously with several collaborators partners charged with stewardship various types of culturally significant historic sites on the East coast: up for sale and land development “historic Moses Macedonia African Cemetery, The Bethesda African Cemetery Coalition (BACC), Montpelier Descendants Committee.
Defenders of Progenitors’ Rights:
We are currently experiencing the “desecration of African enslaved burial history and culture.” Countering these actions, such as the recent the Appellate Court of Maryland decision/ruling to sell enslaved progenitors sacred burial grounds has prompted outrage and encouraged some Progenitors to sign-on as defenders of our history and culture. Ours position is that the court’s failure to preserve the dignity and rights of Black people and their ancestors is a justifies action.
Progenitors’ Defenders Take Action:
· Throughout this document are some descendant communities, social innovation labs and organizing committees that have taken on the charge for action. Chief among them are: The National Museum of African American History and Culture, supported through collaborative partnership with The National Trust for Historic Preservation and the African American Cultural Heritage Action Fund. have concluded unifying a common effort nationwide toward community lobbying residents and stakeholders to petition Congressional representatives for Congressional policy relevant to the preservation of laws that address issues related to the protection of African American treasures. The leadership of the Institute has also been pivotal to the establishment of the Southeast Missouri “African Progenitors’ Historic Preservation Commission. This Commission was appointed to provide stewardship over the interest of our enslavement history, and preservation of our Ancestors affairs.
Progenitors’ Enslaved Individuals Buried in Sacred Historic Places are in Peril in America
· The Southeast Missouri African Progenitors’ Historic Preservation Commission, was established between2020-23. A regionally appointed council, the commission’s mission is to serve as steward over African enslavement relics and cultural heritage affairs! Their due-diligence is to “advocate’s Progenitor-linked Progeny’s genetically Rights, as heirs to render resolute for ethical in burial reinternments, navigate “policy” public policy solutions governing African-Progenitor’s Remains, and Cultural artifacts linked genetically to Asiatic black bloodline (family) indigenous to the land Mississippi-Delta-Valley. They should have the final decision as to their disposition.
Resurrecting African American Academicians and Community Developers:
· Lincoln University, (LU) Missouri, Harris–Stowe State University, (HSSU) Southeast Missouri State University (SEMO) Three Rivers College are students invited participants on this innovative regional and local operation to preservation research “First Generation Enslaved African Burial Grounds search regional and locally “Reclamation” FY 2024 appropriations of the FY 2023 omnibus spending package, provisions of the African American Burial Grounds Preservation Act is the Segway to external partnerships supported by funds will imperative attracts a union between academia and privately-held preservationist’s groups. Our hope is to set new milestones between HBCU’s preservationist groups to initiate cooperative agreements to support community-based empirical research.
A Historical Common Denominator is a Necessary Factor
· To reach this extremely high level of synergism requires a “belief system.” According to original African knowledge, the foundation of a “belief system” is anchored to Birth (life) Death and the disposition of a rationale anchored in religious concept; such as: “from earth you have come and into earth shall you return.” With this structure in places to address the “Desecration of African enslaved burial History and Cultural,” undertaking this task allows Progenies defenders to take
