Introducing AfricanLiberty.org






Dear Friends,


I have been relatively dormant on my blg, but it is for a good cause. It is my pleasure to add a new product to the wonderful work we are doing in Africa and for Africa.Africanliberty.org is the Cato Institute and IMANI's African-focusedprogram. It was launched in December of 2007 and provides content inEnglish and Swahili, as well as access to material in French,Portuguese,and Arabic.


Our mission at AfricanLiberty.org is to be the continent's main platformfor sharing practical ideas generated by Africans and those who believe in Africa 's positive future.


Our vision at AfricanLiberty.org is to bring African voices for libertytothe wider world and work with African media to disseminate policy ideasfor a new century of peace, freedom, and prosperity.AfricanLiberty.org also produces audio and video content and will beworking in 2008 with African broadcast media, especially radio.


Inaddition, AfricanLiberty.org will publish books in African countries (inEnglish and, in conjunction with UnMondeLibre.org and OrdemLivre.org, inFrench and Portuguese). The first books planned for 2008 include Africaneditions of the works of Frederic Bastiat, Johan Norberg, and FranklinCudjoe.Our team has familiar faces.


However, in addition to Mr. Kofi Bentil andmyself, let me introduce Mr. Selorm Branttie, who was my successfulcampaign strategist during College days and now Business DevelopmentManager at AfricanLiberty.org.
