To the Honorable Gentleman and Gentlewomen of the African Union and the Leon H. Sullivan Summit:

We, the African American descendents of African Slaves, with much enthusiasm, pride, and hope, support the proposal from the African Union for full dual citizenship for African Americans in Africa. We believe that such a proposal is long overdue, and see the signing of the proposal into law as the most important step in the progress of Africa and the African American Community.

We are aware that the proposal has been in the making for nearly four years now, and we urge the African Union and the leaders of the Summit to complete the legislation that will grant African Americans legal citizenship throughout Africa, creating a concrete social, economic, and political bridge between Africans and African Americans.

We are signing this petition to make you aware of the massive support that exists in the African American community for the dual citizenship proposal. We ask that you, the leaders of the African Union and members
of the Leon H. Sullivan Summit, cease any hesitation and take the long deliberated proposal from draft, to legislation, and finally to written law. Do not take a step back in our mutual progress, and do not hesitate
towards completing the most important legislation for Africans and the African American community that has appeared since the civil rights revolution in America or the ending of Apartheid in South Africa.

Turn the proposal for dual citizenship for African Americans in Africa into law now, and let the resurrection of the great continent of Africa begin.

-U.P.
