African diaspora raise up

Africa is primed for a resurgence.  I'm yearning to be a part of that.  You see, I'm part of a group of young professionals of the African diaspora who want to mold something new, wonderful and powerful out of the Africa of our father's generation.

That Africa  is full of corruption, wealth disparites,  poor infrastructure, diseases yada, yada.  Africa is a dismal place filled with people who are to be pitied and ignored...according to the media we see in the West  That's not the Africa we hold close to our hearts.  The Africa we know is rich and vibrant and filled with a joie de vivre that's unmatched anywhere.  

I want to bring that Africa to the forefront.  With the connectivity we have today anything is possible.
