The Obama Heritage Tour: Connecting to Our Roots
Introduction The First Black Family Reunion in Africa connects deeply to the legacy of President Barack Obama Jr. If you admire President Obama, you will love this reunion because it intertwines historically, culturally, and socially with the Obama story. The event, titled "The Tom Mboya 70th and First Black Family Reunion in Africa," is a celebration of heritage and unity.
Anthony "Amp" Elmore's Journey Anthony "Amp" Elmore first traveled to Africa in 1990 to premiere his film "The Contemporary Gladiator." During his visit to Kenya, he experienced a life-changing moment, feeling visited by ancestral spirits. This profound experience led him to dedicate his life to bringing groups to Africa and promoting African heritage.
Challenges and Triumphs Despite facing challenges in Memphis, including a lack of support from the city's first African American mayor, Dr. W.W. Herenton, Elmore persisted. In 1992, he met the late Kenyan President Daniel Arap Moi, who named him an African Ambassador. Elmore has tirelessly worked to arrange trade deals between Memphis and Kenya.
Support from Congressman Steve Cohen In 2007, Memphis Congressman Steve Cohen visited Elmore and supported his efforts to promote African and African American relationships. The candidacy of Barack Obama Jr. was a turning point for Elmore, as it highlighted a strong connection between America and Kenya. Elmore felt guided by the spirit of Tom Mboya, who initiated the Airlift America program that brought Barack Obama Sr. to the United States.
Promoting the Obama Heritage Elmore has been a steadfast promoter of Kenya. In 2013, he met with Sarah Obama, President Obama's grandmother, and visited Kogelo, Kenya. Elmore has been working to organize the Obama Heritage Tour for Americans to travel to Kenya. With the help of Congressman Steve Cohen, Elmore celebrated Tom Mboya 60th in Memphis in honor of Barack Obama.
The First Black Family Reunion in Africa includes the creation of the "Obama Heritage Tour." Elmore encourages Americans to visit Western Kenya and the Obama heritage home. Governor Nyong'o, who knew Barack Obama Sr., supports this initiative. Anthony "Amp" Elmore Sr. asked Anthony "Amp" Elmore Jr. to reach out to the Obama girls to support the event, emphasizing the importance of honoring the "Obama Heritage Tour."
Keeping the Obama Heritage Alive Without Anthony "Amp" Elmore's efforts, the Obama Heritage in Kenya might fade. Elmore is dedicated to keeping this heritage alive by promoting visits to Kogelo to honor President Obama. He envisions this as a treasured tourist destination. During the First Black Family Reunion, Elmore will lead tourists to Western Kenya to honor both Tom Mboya and Barack Obama.
Conclusion Join us in celebrating the Obama Heritage and the First Black Family Reunion in Africa. This event is not just about reconnecting with our roots but also about honoring the legacy of President Barack Obama and the rich history of Kenya.
