KUJICHAGULIA VILLAGES: A Practical Plan for Self-Determination - By Keidi Awadu / This newly updated edition of the long-running cutting edge research series explores the many ways in which African people within the U.S. and other Diaspora cities are failing to secure a spectrum of critical needs for sustainability: clean water, wholesome food, sustainable economics, secuirty, education and optimal health. After careful and thorough examination of the problems we herein present a broad set of practical solutions. We have been blessed as a people with many valuable talents and resources. Yet, mismanagement of our resources has put our group at an historical peril. Through the construction of these culturally based agri-economies, we can restore a sense of Self-Determination to the mass of our people. CRPV7N2, $10.00

Culture - We must raise our children with a healthy self-image and appreciation of their own distinct ethnic and cultural heritage. Our youth must be taught, like other ethnic groups, to see their cultural inheritance as valuable and not subject to compromise. Like Persians, Chinese, Italians and other ethnic groups, through Kujichagulia / Self-Determination we can take responsibility toward developing our own community’s economies and teaching our children to respect our culture for its true worthiness.
Agri-Economics - There is no real obstacle blocking us from similarly organizing to acquire substantial farm properties. Numerous times I have researched online resources to examine what type of agricultural land is available in those areas of the country where our population is concentrated, especially the South. Some of these parcels are incredible deals. I remain puzzled as to why it is so difficult to motivate people to move on this land before the billionaires scoop it all up for themselves!
Settlements - On our own lands, we govern ourselves and hold ourselves responsible. We know that our basic needs are food, housing, security, education, and governance. Naturally, security for all of this is too important to be ignored and the historical record proves that we can defend that which we truly hold in high regard. 
Health & Wellness - A number of us have stopped turning over our children’s inheritance to the medical-pharmaceutical complex and their profit-driven ethics. Investing even a weekend at one of our health camping retreats, or four weeks at one of our healing villages, people can establish a whole new set of habits to conform to a healthy lifestyle. We can build a substantial village economy based upon our advance of natural healthy disease prevention and restorative treatments.The Kujichagulia Villages Development projects are partnerships with black landowners who are developing rural properties, as well as urban facilities, toward the aim of self-sufficiency, resource development, vocational training, and systems development. This is an ongoing vision of Keidi Obi Awadu, the Pan African Development Organization and countless members of the Living In Black network.
Our mission of the Kuji Villages Wellness Resorts is to secure space within rural and urban locations to create intentional communities. Within these communities we aim to assemble a talented group of highly accomplishing and resourceful people to implement a plan to restore the larger community to a place of optimal mental and physical health. Our strategies will span a spectrum of healthcare, economic, industrial, educational, creative, and cultural policies and programs. We aim to create a practical application of Reparations-centered proscriptions.
"The future belongs to those best prepared to create that future today."
