AMWS June 26, 2024, Atlanta – Not all U.S. presidential
candidates pursuing “a more perfect union” are expected for the SECOND NATIONAL
PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. But viewers from
any political party can begin leveling the playing field by engaging the
youngest generations as stakeholders.
The second debate will be hosted by CNN from its Atlanta
studios starting at 9 p.m. Eastern time on Thursday (June 27, 2024). Neither candidates nor moderator are expected
to address the
cost of the Black vote. The FIRST JUNETEENTH NATIONAL
PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE consumed less than fifty thousand dollars of
the $100
million investment toward HEALING
THE SOUL OF AMERICA.
Howard
University Alum, Elana Williams Jenkins, introduced three
valued assets for achieving United
Nations Sustainable Development Goal 1 of 17. Jenkins is counting on Peace, Justice and
Love to partner Generation Alpha Secret Millionaires
with the President’s
Advisory Council on African Diaspora Engagement to
declare #NoPoverty2030
#MissionPossible.
The Right Reverend Silvester Beaman has been entrusted to
chair the advisory committee for the Biden-Harris version of African
engagement. Bishop Beaman is the 139th
elected and consecrated Bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church.
Common vision for him and Generation Alpha economic leaders, to “carry
out the spirit of the original Free African Society” predates
the 1816 election of Richard Allen at the church’s first quadrennial
meeting. Beaman has been serving the
church as the Presiding Prelate of the Fifteenth Episcopal District serving in
South Africa, Namibia, and Angola. However, his global church, reeling from a $100
million pension fund scandal, will need increased
community faith and trust to connect Black voters to their #BlackJesus Trust Fund.
In his address to the African Union (AU) in February
2021, President Biden reiterated how interconnected our world is—and how our
fates are bound up together. “Africa’s peace and prosperity are prerequisites
to bolstering Africa’s ability to solve global problems. We recognize that we
have vital interests in common, and our path toward progress rests on a
commitment to working together and elevating African leadership to advance our
shared agenda.”
Biden noted that “none
of this is going to be easy” but affirmed “there is no doubt
that our nations, our people, the African Union – we’re up to this task.”
U.S.
- FREE AFRICAN 21ST CENTURY UN SDG 17 PARTNERSHIP
Campaign promises must show tangible returns on the way
to the polls. If the United Nations can
envision #NoPoverty2030, the President of the United States should reasonably
expect to discover #BlackJesus in Africa.
The United States must reset its relations with African
counterparts, listen to diverse local voices, and widen the circle of
engagement to advance its strategic objectives to the benefit of both Africans
and Americans.
• Elevate the U.S.- Free African Partnership. We will
collaborate with and engage our Free African partners on global priorities, in
addition to those issues impacting their own security and development. We will
share our priorities, discuss their agendas, and identify mutual interests. We
will broaden our vision of and expectations for senior level engagements,
treating meetings with African counterparts as opportunities to advance
outcomes favorable to U.S., regional, and global interests. Even when we have
disagreements, we will lean in, agree to meet, and address differences head-on.
• Engage More African States. We will broaden our
engagements, continuing to invest in the largest states while also deepening
our relations with small and medium African states to advance our shared
priorities, including the AU’s Agenda 2063. Safeguarding U.S. national security
interests requires as much engagement with the small countries as it does with
the larger ones. We will engage with emerging African democracies, surging
assistance and seizing opportunities to support promising democratic openings.
We will develop a deeper bench of partners by increasing our interactions and
deploying higher level U.S. interlocutors to promote greater policy alignment
based on shared values, including at multinational forums and international
courts.
• Bolster Civil Society. We are more likely to advance
U.S. objectives if the region’s civil society, including journalists and
activists, as well as multilateral bodies and democratic institutions, stand up
for shared democratic values, such as transparency, accountability, diversity,
equality and equity, women’s rights, and inclusion. By ensuring our assistance,
engagement, and public statements are informed by diverse local voices, we will
more effectively support reformers, prodemocracy movements, state institutions,
and the region’s youth and female leaders. This also entails recognizing the
historical and ongoing connections between addressing racial justice and
equality in sub-Saharan Africa and the United States.
• Transcend Geographic Seams. We will facilitate and
support new geographic groupings, deepen our engagement with multilateral
institutions, including the AU and Regional Economic Communities, and expand
our foreign partnerships to advanced shared goals. We will integrate African
states in Indian Ocean and Indo-Pacific forums; deepen cooperation with other
coastal Atlantic countries across Africa, Europe, and the Western Hemisphere;
and address the artificial bureaucratic division between North Africa and sub-Saharan
Africa. Moreover, we will work with African, European, and multilateral
institutions to review the current regional architecture, seizing opportunities
to address redundancies and rationalize mandates, priorities, and funding.
• Engage America’s African Diaspora. Our African Diaspora
is a source of strength. It includes African Americans, descendants of formerly
enslaved Africans, and nearly two million African immigrants who maintain close
familial, social, and economic connections to the continent. The African
immigrant population is among the most educated and prosperous communities in
the United States. The AU has included the global African Diaspora—i.e., people
of native African origin living outside the continent—as a sixth region. We
will elevate our diaspora engagement to strengthen the dialogue between U.S.
officials and the diaspora in the United States. We will also support the UN’s
Permanent Forum for People of African Descent. Through these efforts, we will
seek to better highlight U.S. policies, combat misinformation, foster
partnerships, and deepen mutual understanding.
• Leverage U.S. Private Sector and Domestic Leadership.
The U.S. Government will increase its partnership with the U.S. private sector,
as well as work with states, cities, and communities to showcase how U.S.
foreign policy delivers for the middle class. The U.S. private sector plays an
important role in advancing U.S. relations and goals in the region across a
number of areas—such as health, infrastructure, finance, defense, clean energy,
climate change, and education. States and cities also contribute to U.S.
foreign policy objectives. In 2017, the City and County of San Francisco
Employees’ Retirement System, for example, approved a $100 million investment into
power projects in Africa and other emerging markets. To cite another example,
the Michigan National Guard, as part of its State Partnership Program, provided
training for a military hospital in Liberia. In addition, we will facilitate
more African leader travel beyond New York and Washington, D.C., reviving a
tradition of U.S.-supported trips to boost trade and investment, reinvigorate
cultural ties, and forge new connections to advance our priorities.
A P P R O A C H:
This new strategy will spur us to refocus, renew, and
strengthen existing programs, as well as recommend and develop new initiatives.
The United States will prioritize innovation and partner with Africans to
tackle shared global challenges and thrive in a more connected, urban, and
youthful region.
• Revamp Public Diplomacy Efforts. We will modernize our
public diplomacy tools, and we will empower our ambassadors and
officials to engage with African publics, especially youth and women, in
more accessible and creative ways. We will also encourage more cultural
exchanges, such as Ghana’s Year of Return festivities. Finally, we will
redouble efforts to ensure we have sufficient human and financial resources to
plan, organize, and execute these critical programs.
• Support Sustainable Development and Resilience. The
speed and the depth of the economic and sociopolitical fallout from the
COVID-19 pandemic points to the need for accelerated and dedicated attention to
reducing risk and improving state and institutional resilience. We will deepen
our work with governments and regional bodies, including the AU, to support
sustainable development “accelerators”: digital transformation, particularly in
financial services and records; investments in health system core capacities,
including workforce and infrastructure; improvements in supply chains for
critical commodities; access to electricity; and sustainable job creation. The
United States is the largest bilateral overseas development assistance donor to
the continent, and we will continue to innovate, adopting tailored approaches,
encouraging U.S. companies to increase their investments and partnerships, and
tapping a range of tools from departments and agencies beyond the core
“development” institutions. We will support development approaches that are
environmentally sustainable, enhance food security, build social inclusion and
gender equity that reduces fragility and mitigates conflict, and practice
fiscal responsibility.
Finally, The United States will continue to play a
leadership role in coordinating and sequencing donor humanitarian and economic
development activities.
• Refine
and Reinvest in U.S. Defense Tools. Effective, legitimate, and
accountable militaries and other security forces are essential to support open,
democratic, and resilient societies and to counter destabilizing threats,
including in Africa. We will review and reinvest in tools for engaging with
African militaries, especially programs that support necessary institutional
capacity-building, combat corruption, and advance security sector reforms. We
will condemn human rights violations and coups by security forces, as well as
the recruitment and use of child soldiers, and integrate these issues in
bilateral and multilateral security dialogues. We will continue to develop and
enhance our African partners’ capacity to lead and promote regional peace and
security; counter terrorism and other forms of violent extremism; contribute to
African-led maritime awareness; and deliver the security necessary for
democracies and societies to thrive. In line with the 2022 National Defense
Strategy, the Department of Defense will engage with African partners to expose
and highlight the risks of negative PRC and Russian activities in Africa. We
will leverage civil defense institutions and expand defense cooperation with
strategic partners that share our values and our will to foster global peace
and stability. We will work with African security partners to build capacity in
measuring climate risk exposure, implementing early warning systems, and
improving resilience planning. In addition, we will engage the U.S. defense
private sector via Prosper Africa to support sustainable technology and energy
solutions for African militaries.
TASK:
Promote a Replicable Whole of Government National Security Demonstration.
• Strengthen Trade and Commercial Relations. We will
build on existing programs and policies to increase U.S. investment and trade
with Africa. Through our Presidential initiatives, such as Power Africa,
Prosper Africa, PGII, and an initiative on digital
transformation, we will focus on sectors that both align
with U.S. priorities and meet our African partners’ needs, such as
agribusiness, energy, entertainment, healthcare, and technology, while
facilitating transactions in sectors that will be critical to African economic
growth. We will engage with our African partners to facilitate legitimate trade
and travel, while exchanging information to secure the borders of African
nations. We will work with willing African partners to deepen and broaden our
trade relationship, including through trade negotiations, to deliver equitable
and inclusive prosperity.
We will promote customs-to-business partnerships,
increase the use of U.S. Government trade transit cargo security measures, and
expand data sharing with African partners. We will work with the Congress on
the future of AGOA, which expires in 2025, and will support the AfCFTA’s
implementation.
TASK:
Promote Veteran-Owned Small Business model at an HBCU SBDC.
• Drive Digital Transformation. We will foster a digital
ecosystem built on open, reliable, interoperable, and secure internet and
information and communication technology across sub-Saharan Africa. U.S.
companies and venture capital firms are bullish about the opportunities on the
continent, building undersea cables, expanding the number of data centers, and
investing in dynamic African businesses. We will work to ensure affordable
access to the internet, increasing data rates, and lowering costs, while advocating
for open technology platforms like Open RAN to advance secure and
cost-competitive telecommunications infrastructure and cloud computing. We will
expand digital democracy programming, defend against digital authoritarianism,
fight back against disinformation, combat gender-based online harassment and
abuse, and establish standards for responsible conduct in cyberspace. Finally,
as part of our increased focus on ensuring African youth have improved access
to a broader range of skills and knowledge, the Department of State and the
United States Agency for International Development will seek to leverage U.S.
academic institutions as well as the private sector, to facilitate the
provision of online undergraduate and certificate-level courses in science,
technology, engineering, and math fields.
TASK:
Establish FAS2.net wide area network supporting virtual CDFI/CDE
• Rebalance Toward Urban Hubs. Consistent with President
Biden’s commitment to invest in urban renewal and infrastructure at home, the
United States will help African cities plan for their growth in critical
sectors like energy access, climate change, adaptation, transportation, and
water and waste management. We will demonstrate a renewed commitment to
subnational capacity
building and harness existing interagency tools and capabilities to
unlock the region’s urban potential and foster thriving, green, and resilient
cities and infrastructure. Borrowing from the Millennium Challenge Corporation
(MCC) compact investment model, these partnerships will work directly with
municipal governments; conduct joint analysis to identify constraints and a
work plan to address their causes; and establish time-bound municipal compacts
and joint progress indicators.
A forthcoming MCC threshold program within one major
African city will test and refine some key elements of this approach before
establishing a more formal structure, articulating roles and responsibilities,
and working with the Congress to address any outstanding legislative issues.
