Since President George Washington’s plea of being wary of political factions, the birth of a party
system has taken shape across the United States of America’s political system. With the
evolution of political parties, African Americans have been striving to find an alliance that has
best served their diverse and intersectional interests in local, state, and national elections. With
the election of Barack Obama, the Republican Party has become more visibly anti-progressive
with the interest of African Americans; yet, it was the election of Donald Trump that has
dismantled the Republican Party. In the midst of an era of “racial reconciliation” and a broken
two-party system, how can African Americans manage their political power to help accomplish
their desired goals? This conference will explore the newest frontier of the need of a global
coalition of the African diaspora to create political power to help achieve its desired goals
throughout the globe.
