ABOUT 40M
FORTY MILLION STRONG (40M) is an organized movement hell-bent on reestablishing Melanite or “Black” independence and self-sufficiency. Our initial goal, developing a socioeconomically independent nation-colony within the borders of the US by asserting our international right of Self-Determination as defined in the Charter of the United Nations. To do so successfully, we are looking to institute a system of commerce and exchange internally and throughout the Diaspora that would lay the groundwork for an economy operated, maintained and governed by Melanites – the descendants of the African Diasporic peoples and Autochthonous Americans. In order for this to happen there must be network created amongst those who are prepared to do the work within the “conscious” community so that adequate personnel, resources, etc can be put in place. These are the “woke”, “conscious”, digital and grassroots activists, freedom fighters, revolutionaries as well as any and all brothers/sisters who genuinely seek “Black Independence”.
THE FORMULA
The self-explanatory Formula is a simple step-by-step process we have successfully used to build amongst our people. First, we CONNECT by reaching out those who have common interests/goals for “Blacks” in general and invite them to join the DISCUSSION. Based on those discussions, we are able to pinpoint key issues and develop STRATEGIES. Those strategies can then be meticulously converted into PLANS and once carried out, we will achieve or attain our desired RESULTS! This generation has experienced a revolutionary awakening that must be transformed into physical action.
It is important to remember that as we grow aware, those who have opposed our people will continue to grow as well and so will their knowledge of our awareness. With that being said, we must act with a sense of urgency in unifying with those who are prepared to do the required work. WE ALL HAVE A PART TO PLAY, there’s power in numbers!
40M is open to all Melanites or “Blacks” genuinely interested in our past, present and future. We ALL come from different walks of life and have had various experiences but we share a common goal, BLACK INDEPENDENCE, SUCCESS, PROSPERITY and PROGRESSION. History, preferences and affiliations have little-to-no bearing here – WE ARE FAMILY AND THE DOORS ARE ALWAYS OPEN! We look forward to joining each of you on the battlefield – the fight continues!
Connect + Discuss + Strategize + Plan + Act = Results
UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY (A/RES/25/2625)
By virtue of the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, all peoples have the right freely to determine, without external interference, their political status and to pursue their economic, social and cultural development, and every State has the duty to respect this right in accordance with the provisions of the Charter.
Every State has the duty to promote, through joint and separate action, realization of the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples, in accordance with the provisions of the Charter, and to render assistance to the United Nations in carrying out the responsibilities entrusted to it by the Charter regarding the implementation of the principle, in order:
To promote friendly relations and co-operation among States; and to bring a speedy end to colonialism, having due regard to the freely expressed will of the peoples concerned; and bearing in mind that subjection of peoples to alien subjugation, domination and exploitation constitutes a violation of the principle, as well as a denial of fundamental human rights, and is contrary to the Charter.
Every State has the duty to promote through joint and separate action universal respect for and observance of human rights and fundamental freedoms in accordance with the Charter.
The establishment of a sovereign and independent State, the free association or integration with an independent State or the emergence into any other political status freely determined by a people constitute modes of implementing the right of self-determination by that people.
Every State has the duty to refrain from any forcible action which deprives peoples referred to above in the elaboration of the present principle of their right to self-determination and freedom and independence. In their actions against, and resistance to, such forcible action in pursuit of the exercise of their right to self-determination, such peoples are entitled to seek and to receive support in accordance with the purposes and principles of the Charter.
The territory of a colony or other Non-Self-Governing Territory has, under the Charter, a status separate and distinct from the territory of the State administering it; and such separate and distinct status under the Charter shall exist until the people of the colony or Non-Self-Governing Territory have exercised their right of self-determination in accordance with the Charter, and particularly its purposes and principles.
Nothing in the foregoing paragraphs shall be construed as authorizing or encouraging any action which would dismember or impair, totally or in part, the territorial integrity or political unity of sovereign and independent States conducting themselves in compliance with the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples as described above and thus possessed of a government representing the whole people belonging to the territory without distinction as to race, creed or colour.
Every State shall refrain from any action aimed at the partial or total disruption of the national unity and territorial integrity of any other State or country.
In short, not only is it your “God given” right to establish, maintain and control your own community - IT IS INTERNATIONAL LAW! By remaining silent and doing nothing, we are giving consent to the same government and system that has failed us for 100s of years. We have the power to control our own destiny as a people but it is up to US to use it...
THIS IS THEIR LAW! GOOGLE IT OR LOOK IT UP!
The Declaration Of Independence and Self Determination for the American Melanite
We, people of African Diasporic and/or Autochthonous persons of African descent also known as “Blacks”, hereby self identify collectively as Melanites. We do so with the intent of establishing our own identity separate from that given by foreign colonial rule. We also do so with the understanding that group or collective self identification is a requirement in asserting and exercising Self Determination in regards to the rights of all peoples in International law, per the Charter of the United Nations.
We, the Melanites, hereby assert and exercise our international right to Self Determination as defined in the United Nations Charter (A/RES/25/2625) and declare ourselves to be an independent sovereign state or nation. It is the will of our people to freely determine, without external interference, our political status as well the pursuit of economic, social and cultural development.
We, the Melanites, declare autonomous control over our collective destiny as a peoples in the form of external Self Determination or even Secession, as it is our human and international right to do so. Any denial of this fundamental right is contrary and is in direct violation of the United Nations Charter.
Due to our unique history and circumstances as a people(s), the territorial integrity, national and political unity of the existing sovereign (the United States of America) conflicts with our right to assert and exercise Self Determination. Therefore, a unique solution must be used to remedy these conflicts and any contradictions posed by the United Nations Charter that would hinder our ability to exercise this right in establishing independent sovereignty.
For many years, fear of the “law” and its consequences have held us back as a people. Below is the INTERNATIONAL LAW OF SELF-DETERMINATION, written into the Charter of the United Nations.
If we take advantage, this could be a “law” that pushes our people forward!
“all peoples have the right freely to determine, without external interference, their political status and to pursue their economic, social and cultural development.
