Black Infrastructure Organization Presents
The LIN Concept:
Understanding Land, Infrastructure & Nationhood
A five-part series of reports demonstrating the fundamental structures behind the business of nation-building.
________________________________________________________________________________________
Introduction
Land. Infrastructure. Nationhood.
It is these three fundamental elements that have been determined by the Black Afrikan Infrastructure Organization as necessary in building a new nation for Progressive Afrikans throughout the Afrikan Diaspora.
Without land, a people will remain in endless poverty if they don’t either control it or have vested interests in its development. Without a physical infrastructure, the same people will be forever curtailed in the conduction of unfettered commerce. And without the autonomy needed as an independent nation, the same people will remain vulnerable to the established laws and predominant culture of others.
As we review the dynamic and distinctive history of Afrikans within the context of the Western world, the sheer disappointment of perpetual mistreatment, failed expectations, and continuous, systemic relocation of our populated areas has rendered all as a disenfranchised people, and most often not by our own choice. New ways of thinking and fresher approaches to these persistent problems are obviously what’s needed. Therefore, land, infrastructure, and nationhood are the solution.
The LIN Concept: Understanding Land, Infrastructure & Nationhood is a five-part series of reports summarizing the basic building blocks used in the creation of a new nation. Each report will feature an overview of important factors that must be considered for the viability and future prosperity of Progressive Afrikans.
-
Part 1: Land briefly explains the process of acquiring, developing, planning, and financing acquired land.
-
Part 2: Infrastructure gives a preview of ten critical sectors of public infrastructure, as well as their importance to functioning societies, business, and commerce.
-
Part 3: Nationhood will provide a synopsis of how a government is created, and its duties to promote the people’s interests.
-
Part 4: Satellite Cities gives readers an introduction to fresh alternatives that are being implemented to serve growing populations across the world.
-
Part 5: Nation-building: The Fundamentals provides a summary of building a new nation with four essentials: a name, borders, a currency, and people.
Feel free to leave your comments, questions, or suggestions about land, infrastructure, and nationhood, as we'd like for everyone to provide input with other like-minded Progressive Afrikans who share the same interests and passions for creating this new way of life.
About BAIO:
The Black Afrikan Infrastructure Organization is a diverse group of progressive individuals of Afrikan descent residing throughout the Western Hemisphere and Afrikan Diaspora, all of whom share a common interest in improving the quality of life standards for our people. Through the amalgamation of business development, skills mastery, entrepreneurship, advanced farming, education, S.T.E.M., international diplomacy, trade, commerce, and Afrikan arts and culture, BAIO is steadfast in its efforts to produce new solutions to modern challenges encountered across the economic, political and social realms of today's world. Its theory of Afrikan-centered progressivism has already been researched, documented and discussed; the time has now come to put theory into plans of action.
BAIO's motto is unapologetically resolute: "land, infrastructure, nationhood". By way of an absolute consensus among participating members, it has been determined that these three essential elements are fundamental in realizing true empowerment and independence for contemporary descendants of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade throughout the Afrikan Diaspora.
BAIO's main objectives include the acquisition of land for public and private use that will be generally planned upon concepts based on satellite city models; the design, development and management of an advanced physical infrastructure which implements S.T.E.M.-based technologies, alternative energy solutions, integrated transportation networks, modern ports, permaculture, advanced medical facilities and a host of other services; and the creation of the independent nation-state of Afrikstan, which will be administered by a representative government and chartered under the Constitution for the Republic of Afrikstan.
