Hello Cathy,
If the brightest and best African-American high school students, spent their gap year before college, in stable and relatively wealthy emerging African nations, which are also democracies, such as Ghana, they would grow in self-confidence to the extent that racial prejudice would be like water off a duck's back, to them, upon their return home to the U.S.

Furthermore, it would be prudent for wealthy African-Americans to make generous contributions to scholarship endowment funds, to enable the brightest and best African-American high school students, to attend the best privately-owned universities (and other tertiary institutions), in stable African nations.

World-class African tertiary institutions, such as Ghana's Ashesi University, Pentecost University College, African University College of Communications, Central University and Regent University College of Science and Technology, come readily to mind, in that regard.

Surprising though it might be to some, egregious-racism in America, will gradually cease being a societal problem, and eventually disappear, if the number of well-educated African-Americans, with abundant self-belief, increases across the U.S.

In one's humble view, experiencing life in today's resurgent, dynamic and re-energised Africa, will make a huge difference to the mental outlook and worldview, of educated African-American youth.

That is why it is such a pity that no one thinks about the psycological value of such cultural-immersion-programmes in Africa, for young African-American youth, in the quest to empower them to be self-confident, responsible and productive citizens of America.

The reputable youth-oriented NGO, SYTO Ghana, could easily make such a youth placement and internship programme, for young African-American high-school students, across Ghana, work smoothly, and yield the needed results, because it is the premier youth exchange organisation in Ghana, and one of the best-run volunteer placement and internship organisations, in the world. Cool.

Kind regards,
Kofi.
