The International Fellowship of Black Americans and Africans (IFBAA) is leading the global organization uniting people of African descent across continents, strengthening bonds between African nations and the diaspora, and uplifting Black communities worldwide through humanitarian aid, education, economic empowerment, and social justice initiatives.

New Beginnings

Founded in 2025 by a small but dedicated group of Black Americans and African descendants who at this time remain nameless, the International Fellowship of Black Americans and Africans (IFBAA) emerges at a pivotal moment in history. Though newly formed, the Fellowship is driven by an enduring vision—to heal the divisions of the past and forge lasting unity between Africans and their descendants across the diaspora.

The IFBAA seeks to build bridges of shared purpose, restoring connection through cultural exchange, humanitarian relief, economic cooperation, and mutual empowerment. Our aim is not modest: we aspire to impact history itself by strengthening a global Black alliance rooted in justice, self-determination, and collective advancement.

This is only the beginning, but the work has already begun. We are actively laying the foundation for a movement that will shape generations to come.
