"The phrase Africa is Done Suffering is in no way intended to dismiss or disregard the past and present struggles endured by Africans. We fully acknowledge the challenges that Africans face on a daily basis, including the staggering AIDS rate among people of African descent around the world. This disease has produced a grievous tide of devastation across the continent. It is in the face of these struggles that we find our mission. Rather than lament the difficulties, we seek to invest our efforts in the promise of a better tomorrow.

We are geared towards action, the kind of action that will vocalize the frustrations of our people as well as change the media-enhanced perception of Africa as the world's handicapped continent. We are encouraged by the positive attributes of Ethiopia, Nigeria, Kenya and Uganda. We want to highlight the wealth of Ghana, Somalia, North and South Sudan, and Zimbabwe. We find hope in the unquenchable spirit of Angolans, South Africans, Congolese, and Senegalese. We are empowered by the strength of Cameroon, Burundi, Tanzania Mali and all other African countries. For this reason we declare that Africa Is Done Suffering.

Our mission is to use communication as a tool to bring together young Africans who are scattered amongst the nations. We look to promote unity and build a strong connection amongst the separated through the expression of individual opinions, ideas, hopes, and dreams. If you have ever wanted to make a difference, this is one way that you can.

Our goal is to raise the image of Africa not only in the eyes of the world but also amongst Africa's own people. We seek to enable the growth of pride amongst young Africans in reference to their heritage, culture, family traditions, and overall respective countries. Our mission is to provide a safe place for young Africans across the globe to connect with one another and share their struggles, triumphs, fears, courage, shortcomings, and strengths; a place for them to share their lives. Along with educating our youth on Africa's richness, we look to build a strong community of like-minded young people who can speak on various topics with the confidence that their voice will be heard. We look to establish an online community where interested individuals can gather to discuss the current events of Africa, educate one another, and look for ways to cultivate the great promise of the continent. Get involved with this social movement and help us educate the world on our Africa" Email info@afriaisdonesuffering.com
