In the middle of the protests over police brutality and a pandemic, 19 black families have joined forces and purchased 96.71 acres of land in Toomsboro, Georgia.

They plan to build a new, safe city there.


Ashley Scott, a Georgia-based realtor, started The Freedom Georgia Initiative with a few like-minded people.

Scott explained that the idea came after the death of Ahmaud Arbery, a black man who was killed by a group of white men while out on a jog.

“I am concerned. At times distraught. For the first time ever in my life, I felt disempowered. So much so that the overachieving, solution-oriented, practical, non-emotional person that I am had to stop,” Scott wrote.


“I sought counseling from a black therapist and it helped.

It helped me to realize that what we as black people are suffering from is racial trauma.

We are dealing with systemic racism.

We are dealing with deep-rooted issues that will require more than protesting in the streets.

It will take for us as a people, as Atlanta rapper and activist Killer Mike so eloquently put, ‘To plot, plan, strategize, organize and mobilize.’

The group joined several Facebook groups discussing building black cities and new Black Wall Streets, and it turned out there were more people who shared the same desires.


Together, they began to look for ways to change the world for the better in whatever way they could.

“We wanted to make some kind of difference that could ensure the safety of our black sons and black husbands when they went about their lives just breathing and being.

We wanted to do something to amass black power to affect real change.”

“We figured we could try to fix a broken system or we could start fresh.

Start a city that could be a shining example of being the change you want to see.

We wanted to be more involved in creating the lives we really want for our black families.

And maybe, just maybe, create some generational wealth for ourselves by investing in the land.

Investing in creating a community that is built around our core values and beliefs.”

The plan is to create a community with green, environmentally safe, and eco-friendly building materials that honor Mother Nature

A community that is self-sufficient and thriving with a living food system built by black farmers to provide food security for all their neighbors.

A community that prioritizes diversity and inclusion by hiring BIPOC and women vendors, suppliers and contractors, a community that boasts accessible spaces for all people.

Finally, a community where all black folks could come home without being murdered by police.

When they finish I need Visa there.....

This solution get as it is, they should think twice to avoid problem of their hatters asking them to relocates to black city if they don't like how they're treated.

We know how it will end. Blacks everywhere are the same. Just look at those carribean islands with majority blacks

lol ghetto area. Crime-prone eh?!

Black city?!

But but white cops will still enter

How realistic is this?

When it's completed, thats where their government will use to conduct their highly classified experiments.
Their food, water, soil and the air they breath are still controlled by the whites
The black skin is much safer in Africa than anywhere else in the world,
Little is known that this is the greatest fear of the white man.

Guys are angry

one of the founder go first sleep with person wife or daughter. Cause fight, and move out. Another go dupe others with inflated expenses. Na black for you be that

American Authorities have got nothing to worry about cause after building the damn city they'd get Guns and finish each other without external force just like they do to each other in Chicago and Texas.

Ain't they Black Americans the most dumbest n senseless sect of humans to ever Exist

if I were to live in USA I would prefer a 68% white - 32% black community. Once blacks get upper edge or even as much as 55-45 I don run. Not to mention when it is now all black community. No be me go lose my life to gun duels and thug clashes

See comments.





No wonder......

imagine if 19 white families purchased 97 acres of land in Nigeria to build "white city"

� how does that sound?.

black people like doing things on the extreme..

look at what they are doing in a white man's country. if it was the other way round they will be the ones to scream racism.

they should use that money and come and develop Africa and stop fighting to be accepted in a white man's country.

This place will be different if it's mainly rich black people.

Poverty brings out the worst in people.

This is a classic example of a white elephant project.

A more sensible idea would have been to invest in businesses or in sectors that will yield direct benefit to Black Americans.

True to some extent, not like some rich black Americans like diddy, 50cent and others are not crime sponsors anyway.

I agree with you

if only this Love and unity can be spread across Nigeria, It would have benefits us all.

Trump wont like this

Why conform to a society that hates you!!
The system is so screwed up
But I don’t see this thriving though but I love the fact that they atleast tried to do something

The people writing the nonsense above cannot be black.
