Please note that this is not an organization of Africans in America; it is "The Africa-America Institute" referring to the continent and the US not to people.
It has nothing whatsoever to do with the community of African people born in the US. As its declares it is " multi-racial, multi-ethnic"...it would be more accurate to say Museveni and American government and corporations; as it is a government, foundation and corporate created and funded entity. Its board include people such as
