Bomani Tyemba, African Trade and Investment 2018 Schedule - The guest today has been a longtime associate with our LIB family and today is one of those exceptional programs that make us all so proud. Bomani has engaged an average of three trips to Africa and more recently Brazil annually and over the course of the last decade has accompanied over 200 people to the African continent. Africa for the Africans sponsors tours related to cultural heritage as well as economic investment, partnership development, business investigation and strategies to begin one's own business on the African continent. Some of the countries we discussed today include Ghana, Ethiopia, Benin and others. For so many reasons we of African heritage within the United States must increasingly consider that our future, especially our business future, must incorporate African people beyond the borders of the nation within which we live. Africa for the Africans has a strategic plan that has proven to work. Now is our moment to increase participation with in this plan and get more of our people a solid pathway forward in an increasingly stressful and competitive environment. (LIBMP3-3897)
