How will decolonization work? (lemmygrad.ml)

I thought about it but I couldn't think of a proper answer.

I guess it would make the most sense to let the colonized decide what to do with the colonizers, since they are the victims.

And what would happen with the people that were brought in as slaves by the colonizers?

I hope someone smarter than me can explain 🙏🥺

Africans in the Americas are nations born into world through their struggle against slavery and colonization, but we must be careful reactionary ideas such as a Black Belt state as there are indigenous nations who claim and live in that region still.

This is actually a shockingly good point to raise. As much as I still staunchly believe the only way for New Afrikans to ever put our history of being colonized behind us in such a means that it will be impossible to ever reproduce is the establishment of a state of our own, governed by us and for us; the matter of indigenous land claims is still a very salient one to bring up, and something that'd need more hashing out after the dissolution of the Empire proper.
