Background: Friends of the African Union (FAU) online media was established in 2012 at http://www.friendsofthefricanunion.com to create a Black Folks Plan into existence as put forth in the book “The Black Folks Plan, how did we get here?: A $6T #BlackFolksPlan for a #JustEconomy” (ISBN 979- 8371149725) plan of action published December 25th 2022 for (1) the people covered by the Conference of Berlin (1885) which was signed by the USA and ratified by the US Senate in 1930 making it American law like the Convention Relative to the Slave Trade and Importation into Africa of Firearms, Ammunition, and Spiritous Liquors of 1890 thereby making us in the USA as responsible for the problems of the people of the African nations that emerged from these treaties, (2) the members of the African Union along with their people and (3) the 300M people of African descent in the global African Diaspora including the 55m people of African descent and their families in the USA.

Hershel Daniels Junior,

Chairman,

Friends of the African Union 

[PERSONAL NOTE: THIS WAS COMPLETED AFTER MY 10TH HEART SURGERY ON FRIDAY. OVER THE PAST THREE MONTH I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH LIFE THREATING ISSUES OF HEALTH AND FINANCE. IF I HAVE NOT MADE OUR SCHEDULE IN 2023 KNOW IN 2024 THAT I AM PLAYING CATCH UP IN THE FIRST QUARTER AS I RESTRUCTURE FAU AND BUSINESS]

Friends of the African Union Operational Principles that were adopted by the Friends of the African Union as a Ohio unincorporated association on November 19, 2012, are:

1. We support the African Union [AU], it's constitutive act and the history of the predecessor organization the Organisation of African Unity [OAU].
   
   

2. We support the recognition of the African Diaspora globally and legally by the AU.
   
   

3. We support the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights and its application to Africans and their condition worldwide.
   
   

4. We support the UN Millennium Development Goals for Africa and the economic-social uplift of Africans on the continent and in the African Diaspora as well work of the African Union in regards to increasing trade between African Nations and will incorporate the work of the International Year for People of African Descent [2011] as it was designated by the UN and Organization of American States.
   
   

5. We support the strategy and agenda of the Economic, Social and Cultural Council (ECOSOCC) and through organization of African American Civil Society we support the legacy projects and continuing efforts to strengthen the Global African Diaspora Initiative of the AU.
   
   

6. We support Peace, Security and basic human dignity within Africa and around the globe, with an emphasis on stopping slavery in the AU and the African Diaspora.
   
   

7. We support the organization of African and peoples of African descent self-interest and uplift through a committee structure and take responsibility for organizing such in the United States of America.

1. We support the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) of 2000 and by 2014 the creation of a new plan between the United States of America and the African Union that is supportive of the African Diaspora in the USA and would be sustainable not only in Africa but also in the host countries of the African Diaspora.

1. We support political empowerment of Africans as individual citizens and in free associations on cooperation and solidarity in the continent and in Diaspora.

1. We support the creation of the African American Diaspora Holding Company & Investment Trust who will start with creating a financial solution in response to the damage caused by Hurricane Sandy through the US Federal Reserve and its banks. [NOTE: We can now draw on the experience of creating $580B in Fed Bank Community benefit agreements]

Seventy five years ago (1948) the world declared the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.  Now, FAU will implement in 2024, our answers to it using the 2020 UN Human Rights Council Universal Periodic Review of the United States of America as our start by April 1 2024 based on our submission on Nov. 28 2023 and the US State Department response November 29th as we update the above operational principles in a 21st century global circular economy framework.

Among the basis for new FAU operational principles in a 21st century global circular economy framework is the FAU CETS Circular Economy Global Carbon Emissions Reduction Program. It supports a journey towards achieving net-zero sustainability for the black businesses worldwide powered by our tokenized blockchain digital ledger production and trade DeFi platform that has a FAU CETS SME Subscription- based Global Carbon Emissions Reduction Program,

In the U.S., the Federal Reserve and Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) define the rules for centralized financial institutions like banks and brokerages, which consumers rely on to access capital and financial services directly. DeFi challenges this centralized financial system by empowering individuals with peer-to-peer transactions.

The SEC has rejected multiple applications to launch spot bitcoin Electronic Traded Funds (ETFs) in recent years, arguing that the cryptocurrency market is vulnerable to manipulation. The only cryptocurrency ETFs the agency has approved are tied to bitcoin and ethereum futures contracts that trade on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (Cboe).

In recent months, however, there have been increasing signs that regulators are prepared to sign off on at least some of the 13 proposed spot bitcoin ETFs. Some say the catalyst was a federal appeals court decision in August that the SEC erred in rejecting Grayscale's proposed conversion of its trust into an ETF. Representatives of the exchanges on which the new products might trade, including Nasdaq and Cboe, as well as lawyers for the issuers, also attended the meetings, according to meeting memos. Our innovative program to assist businesses will create in 2024 a ETF for businesses owned by People of African Descent.

Our FAU CETS DeFi platform is designed to leverage C7ISR3 technology. C7ISR3 is to be a fork of USPTO 5,577,042 and other patents and software that embeds ISO26000:2010 and a superset of the United Nations Universal Periodic Review Process called the DanielsIDIQ.  C7ISR3 is a Communication, Computing, Connectivity, Control, Command, Countermeasures, eCommerce electronic solution with International market Information and Intelligence infrastructure that is Systemwide branded Ultra Secure and Safe as a GLINC enabled platform that has state of the art biometric Recognition and artificial intelligence situational Response technology built in that is also to be embedded in a solution for Real time solutions that can be tokenized in digital event contracts in our program in reducing carbon emissions and transitioning towards a sustainable future in a 21st century circular economy.

A Key Features of the Program is a C7ISR3 powered Tokenized Blockchain Digital Ledger: Our program harnesses the power of blockchain technology to provide a secure and transparent platform for tracking and recording emissions reduction efforts. Through our tokenized blockchain digital ledger a client organization, even your family corporation or foundation, can maintain an immutable record of sustainability actions, ensuring credibility and accountability. By Fiscal Year 2025 (October 1st 2024) we plan to have regulatory approval to create our marketplace for C7ISR3 powered Tokenized Blockchain Digital Ledger.

We are preparing for the Biden-Harris Administration an 2024 update based on the Friends of the African Union (FAU) unsolicited proposal for the US Government in response to statements to the interagency response set forth by the US State Department to the United Nations Universal Periodic Review of the USA in 2015 (#UNUPR). That response that said “Civil Rights, Ethnic, & Racial Discrimination” is the number one human rights problem in the USA. In 2014 the Friends of the African Union joined with the New Future Foundation on Sept. 15th 2014 to submit a solution to institutionalized federal racism in the United States of America as part of the United Nations Human Rights Universal Periodic Review of the United States of America.

The Universal Periodic Review (UPR) is a unique process which involves a review of the human rights records of all UN Member States. The UPR is a State-driven process, under the auspices of the Human Rights Council, which provides the opportunity for each State to declare what actions they have taken to improve the human rights situations in their countries and to fulfill their human rights obligations. As one of the main features of the Council, the UPR is designed to ensure equal treatment for every country when their human rights situations are assessed.

Our submission was based on United Nations protocols used by the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights and based on the 10 areas of human rights focus as put forth by the US State Dept. interagency response in both 2015 and 2020. These included (1) civil rights, ethnic, and racial discrimination; (2) criminal justice issues; (3) indigenous issues; 4) national security; (5)immigration; (6) labor and trafficking; (7) economic, social and cultural rights and measures; (8) the environment; (9) domestic implementation of human rights, and; (10) treaties and international human rights mechanisms.

Our orginial 2015 solution used Quantitative Easing as its main tool. Quantitative easing (QE) is an unconventional monetary policy used by a central bank, in the case of FAU USA the US Federal Reserve System, to stimulate an economy when standard monetary policy has become ineffective. A central bank implements quantitative easing by buying specified amounts of financial assets from commercial banks and other private institutions, thus raising the prices of those financial assets and lowering their yield, while simultaneously increasing the monetary base. The US Federal Reserve System operations are a private sector entity overseen by the United States Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) under federal law. 

The theme of our program is based on “Money for Main Dtreet, not just wall street. A capital solution to 400 years of injustice”. 

We will present our work to the public during Black History Month; every day. It will offer the people, politicians, financial institutions and corporations doing business in the USA as a means of investment, regulated by the FOMC and Securities and Exchange Commision, that addresses the historical institutional racism of the Federal, State and local governments against African Americans through an unsolicited proposal. It is a program that uses an 2024 update to the DanielsIDIQ, that addresses racial justice and create a #JustEconomy that comprehensively tackle systematic social racial practices, xenophobia, and economic oppression at all levels of government and in the private sector that crosses the point of race, law, and power. It is a program, through tools such as public private partnerships, that recognizes that the past can be addressed in the 21st century. It uses the guidelines published in Federal Acquisition Regulations 15.6.- Unsolicited Proposals which is a written application for a new or innovative idea submitted to an agency on the initiative of the offeror for the purpose of obtaining a legally binding contract with the federal government, and is not in response to a request for a proposal.

Statement of Principles

We believe that the best hope for our overall domestic economy is a massive investment to create jobs, raise wages, keep people out of poverty and create intergenerational wealth. Created by FAU Friends of the African Union smartWISE Community Reinvestment Coalitions, with allies like T-BOC, NABB, and the like have joined together to fight for government at all levels to work with the private sector to invest in a healthy, thriving economy and peoples’ economic security to build a healthier community and a stronger economy for the long-term.

We believe

bold, equitable public leadership such as that shown Kwanzaa Organizations can lead to Unity in the Community in a investment that will build a stronger, more sustainable circular 21st century economy that works for all not just the local black community, which is our focus.

We believe

significant public leadership and use of domestic Presidential Executive actions driven by the Black Folks Plan made local in FAU smartWISE Coalitions can create the investment climate that is essential to address racial and other disparities that long-preceded this economic crisis but have been dramatically exacerbated by COVID-19 and the current economic reality. 

We believe

that the effective way for the President of USA to do reparations is through Federal Acquisition Regulations 15.6, as the US State Department told us to do on Nov. 29th 2023 when we had asked for $6T for Black Folk through our agent the African Diaspora Directorate. Now that request will be updated to what your community should receive in this plan made local from Fiscal Year 2025 to 2100. In Black History Month FAU would have daily sessions for your coalition, online, that will bring our resources local using the FAU Mending Goals Framework.

We believe

like others, that government spending that prioritizes people’s needs is popular. People want the government to use the tools it has, including public spending and in this case with the book the  Black Folks Plan, how did we get here?  as Presidential action such as Executive Order 13985  (Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government), which charged the Federal Government with advancing equity for all, including communities that have long been underserved.  To do this work, leadership that will work allies to make not only the lives of black folk better but better for the people allied with us. We will not be placated with hand-wringing about “cost” or fear-mongering about “debt” when we know public leadership with private sector investment can strengthen the economy through 1,000 local partnerships created over the next year. We start with your Kwanzaa organization in this email but this is an open letter to all who read it. Let us unite to be the change we need

We believe

that Friends of the African Union is Revolutionizing Civil Cooperation by Embracing Self-Reliant Growth through the Mending Goals and Family Caregiving

Whereas the Mending Goals (MGs), also known as the Healing Goals, were adopted by the Friends of the African Union (FAU) on November 29th 2023 as a call to action fostering inclusion and providing access to resources necessary for the Global African Community to achieve a superset of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Whereas this initiative addresses the perceived shortcomings of the SDGs, which have been criticized for their 'shallow commitment' to racial justice and equality, as they fail to comprehensively tackle systematic social racial practices, xenophobia, and economic oppression.

Whereas the Mending Goals are integrated — they recognize the unmet Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs (HON) for the Global African Community, which encompasses essential elements such as equitable access to education, healthcare, economic opportunities, and social justice. 

Whereas these goals go beyond mere acknowledgment, aiming to dismantle historic systemic barriers and pave the way for a more inclusive and just society with a #JustEconomy. By addressing the unmet Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, the Mending Goals strive to establish a foundation that empowers individuals, fosters community resilience, and ensures sustainable progress towards a future characterized by equality and prosperity in a 21st century circular economy.

Whereas many countries have pledged to prioritize advancements for those facing the greatest challenges. However, the operationalization of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) falls short in addressing critical issues, such as ending social racial practices, economic oppression, and fulfilling racial justice commitments. This gap is evident in the limited capacity to provide African Americans and other members of the Global African Community with access to essential capital resources. This lack of access hinders their ability to engage in impactful investments, generating returns beneficial to both the United States and Africa.

Whereas the inadequacy is underscored by the absence of racial disaggregation in the SDG Targets and Indicators. Friends of the African Union emphasizes that the operationalization of SDGs lacks clear racial justice commitments, as evidenced by the insufficient attention to racial disaggregation in the 17 targets and their indicators. The challenge is exacerbated by limited access to capital resources necessary for African Americans to bridge the wealth gap and attain equality through investments in Africa. This, in turn, fails to increase legal inflows into the Global African Community.

Whereas the Global African Community will be addressed by our actions in 2024 through the creation of a new Civil Society Organization Friends of the United Nations Permanent Forum on People of African Descent created by Friends of the African Union and allies through establishing these FAU Bureaus:

Whereas the Friends of the African Union United States of America Bureau was established in 2016 by the late Bishop Snipes and is to be reorganized in 2024 under new leadership by January 13th 2024 to service the following state Assemblies:

Whereas FAU Uganda Bureau was established in 2023 and in 2024 it will be reorganized.

Whereas based on the work of FAU in unifying under the umbrella of the Mending Goals have agreed to be focused on people of African Descent who are family caregivers in the above FAU Bureaus and Assemblies we also agree to create with Caregiver Coalition Fund of America (CareCFA) which is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization devoted to supporting the physical, emotional, spiritual, and socioeconomic needs of nonpaid family caregivers the Black Caregivers Association as a affiliate of FAU and CareCFA based on a subsequent memorandum of understanding that supports our underlying interests.

Whereas based on the work of FAU in unifying under the umbrella of the Mending Goals have agreed to be focused on people of African Descent who are family caregivers and will do so through a new global civil society organization the Friends of the United Nations Permanent Forum on People of African Descent will agree to create a standing committee on Family Caregivers in the organization Family Council with CareCFA serving as a convening partner. 

Whereas on August 25th 2023 FAU shorted the title to the implementation program of action to be submitted to the world through the third session of the United Nations Permanent Forum on People of African Descent to read as “the Global Compact for Democracy with a #JustEconomy” and that the Concept Note submitted to the Secretariat of the 3rd Session was accepted Nov. 13th, it reads: Friends of the African Union (FAU) will submit Nov. 28th 2023 for the third session of the United Nations Permanent Forum on People of African Descent this c1ept note the details around implementation of the Black Folks Plan for Reparatory Justice through the Global Compact for Democracy with a #JustEconomy that contains in its 75 year use of proceeds the domestic $6 Trillion Dollars Black Folks Plan along with $30 Trillion Dollars in the Black Folks Plan for Agenda 2063 and $4 Trillion Dollars for the Global African Diaspora minus the USA. In that $4 Trillion Dollars at least $1 Trillion Dollars will be dedicated to Brazil and $1 Trillion Dollars for the member states of The Caribbean Community.

The Global Compact for Democracy with a #JustEconomy will use the in development C7ISR3 platform. C7ISR3 is to be a fork of USPTO 5,577,042 and other patents and software that embeds ISO26000:2010 and a superset of the United Nations Universal Periodic Review Process called the DanielsIDIQ.  C7ISR3 is a Communication, Computing, Connectivity, Control, Command, Countermeasures, eCommerce electronic solution with International market Information and Intelligence infrastructure that is Systemwide branded Ultra Secure and Safe as a GLINC enabled platform that has state of the art biometric Recognition and artificial intelligence situational Response technology built in that is also to be embedded in a solution for Real time solutions that can be tokenized in digital event contracts. 

The Global Compact for Democracy with a #JustEconomy as a Global solution will be promoted as a the basis of financing civil society aspirations in the UN System. As a global BIPOCA ( a Black Folk based partnership with Indigenous Peoples with allied People of Color and White Folk) ALLIANCE movement it will build on not only American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117‑2); the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (Public Law 117-58); division A of Public Law 117-167, known as the Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors (CHIPS) Act of 2022; Public Law 117-169, commonly referred to as the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022; and the Safer Communities Act (Public Law 117-159) as well as executive action by the Biden Harris Administration which has been ineffectual in its game changing racial equity and advancement of equal opportunity for underserved communities through Executive Order 13985. 

Through the FAU using the Black Folks Plan made local at national, state, regional and city levels and spread through college campuses with a focus on USA Historically Black Colleges and Universities we will engage executive departments and agencies around their historic work in assessing how their policies and programs perpetuate barriers for underserved communities and implement strategies for the people in removing those barriers that they can see working. We have started in the United States in the DMV, Ohio, Pennsylvania, California, Alabama, Georgia, and Michigan. In Africa we have started in the Gambia, Senegal, Uganda, Kenya, Chad, Nigeria, Zambia, Ethiopia and South Africa. In the Americas in Canada, Mexico, Haiti, Colombia and Belieze. [NOTE: YES WE MISSPELLED BELIZE]
