We advocate the reverse migration of millions of African Americans back to the Southeast United States for the express purpose of effecting peaceful, meaningful, and powerful change through the elective process for the common welfare and benefit of all Southeast residents. Black Americans anywhere outside the Southeast region shown above are encouraged to gather themselves together in all of the ten states depicted above plus the District of Columbia. In these states Black Americans make up at least 20% of the population. Becoming the majority population in each of these states would not only help solidify political power, but it would pave the way for economic growth and improved livelihood for everyone. At one time, this region was called "Dixie", and many of the residents like to call it "God's country". Therefore, going forward, we will affectionately refer to it as "Zion", and may it ever be GOD'S COUNTRY.
John 11:52
And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem,... how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathers her chickens under her wings,...
Psalm 102:22
When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the Lord.
Zephaniah 2:1
Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation not desired;
Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father.
Black Together Now, BTN, is a movement to gather Black Americans together in the Southeastern United States for the purposes of group well-being, security, prosperity, and advancement.
Why the Southeastern United States? Simple, because in many of these states Black Americans already have a sizeable population. BTN is only encouraging Black Americans to gather themselves together in one of the following southeast states: Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Washington D.C., or Delaware.
BTN is actively seeking submissions from scholars and experts in various fields that can contribute to the overall society of the Southeast. We don't just seek a new south, but a better south. We choose not to simply duplicate the same failed and flawed aspects of the current national system. We plan to duplicate all the best aspects and improve on the areas that need improvement. We want a better government system, a better justice system, a better health care system, education system, etc. What's your area of expertise? If you had a unique opportunity to shape future policy for the Southeast region, what would be your policy? For a list of policies, click HERE.
From all states and territories outside of the ones outlined in BLACK above, let us be gathered together. Purchase a home, rent an apartment, move in with a family member or a friend. You can even keep your property in whatever state you presently live, but make your voting address in the NEW Southeast so we can maximize our elective ability.
COMING: All the resources you need to help buy a new home, find an apartment, register to vote, find a doctor, find a school, and find a church home.
