The frequently decried absence of Black leaders in the U.S. is a misnomer. What we have is a dearth of visionary Black leaders. We must understand our place in the world, a place marked by race. African leaders have a responsibility to define that marker. This article claims as members of the race, all the world's populations of African-descended people.

It is incumbent upon Black leaders to articulate visions which can be realized and the means for realizing them. One way of doing that is rooted in the world-wide African presence
