Much has been said about the escalating armed conflict of the Mbororo Muslims and Amba Separatists within the anglophone armed crisis.

Keen to learn from Chairman Millan Atam of SCCOP, and welcome him back to the U.S. Senate.

Chairman Atam is touted as THE most prominent architect of the movement for Independence (secession) in Cameroon's Anglophone region.

We may not always agree, but the Cameroon American Council is willing to engage with all sides of the conflict, and together find justice and peace and reparations for the injustice that created the Anglophone crisis.

Bravo Senegal's on winning today's Soccer World Game!!

And talking about Senegal ...Marcus Goodwin is running for DC Council At Large and he is a DC native who is Senegalese, Muslim, speaks French and other Senegalese languages.
He lived in Senegal and understands Black Lives Matter, Muslim ban, language access, Francophone, ESL, living abroad, being an immigrant...and living in DC.

Let's get someone in Council who will represent us from a lived perspective.

And oh, he has raised more money than anyo of his competitors and has been endorsed by several entities, including the Washington Post!

Let's Go Marcus Goodwin. The DC Immigrant's Choice!

Thanks

Please join me in thanking Rev Al Sharpton, Founder of National Action Network...after a year of consistent advocacy to get a briefing on UN from New York Senators....his org makes one call and the letter comes out!

Coalition building is critical in the Cameroon crisis...we need allies.

So, in November 2017, I will led a major black press outreach on the current Cameroon crisis.

Blacks in USA were critical in helping to end apartheid in South Africa.

I believe if more Blacks know about the apartheid in Cameroon by France's colonial oppressive financial rules, more Blacks in USA and globally will take up our cause.

Join me in thanking Rev Al Sharpton's NAN for intervening.

One Black people, many causes!
