    Living in the US is like being trapped on a nonstop roller coaster ride in a country that thrives on violence, lies, no healthcare, and negative bias. Living in a big city eventually takes its toll, and I've tried to maintain a life here.And its not working. I want a better life, a prosperous life that's based upon the fact that I am human. I want nonstop peace of mind.

    So many valid points! We as black women have held this country on our backs, and for what? As far as reparations, I’m not holding my breath on that at all. Black women we deserve better and this country has shown that it cares nothing about us, but have benefited off of our hard work. Do not let fear keep you from exploring other options, there’s more out there besides the US.

    Picking what establishment to enter based on its location amongst W people of a certain type is a real thing. I used to drive from FL to AL to visit my family there and I would always be wary about what gas station I was gonna stop in with my children because I didn't want any trouble.
    Meanwhile, yesterday, I spent a large part of the day wondering around downtown San Jose, Costa Rica without a care in the world. I paid attention to my surroundings, but only in a 'big city' kinda way. I felt totally safe, and nobody was looking at me sideways as I went in and out of various shops. It was so freeing.

      I agree that it is money that draws and keeps, most people trapped in the US. I think what many don't realize is that "extra" money they may be earning is quickly stipped away in taxes, utilities, food, health care...and the general cost of living. But what we really give up, as Stephanie points out, is our person hood. No paycheck can compensate for that. I found my dream in Mexico.

      Don't know which rim you visited? However, a town named Kingman is in the path of the Grand Canyon (west rim).
      They had a sign (back in 2000) that said, "If you're Black, don't stop here." As I type this, they have a store dedicated to all things confederate.

      HELLO!!!! That's exactly what I'm doing. I have been investing long term (for the past 15 years) in index funds that track the S&P500, Total Stock Market and technology sector. I'm almost at my FIRE number... and that is the ultimate reparations that I gave myself! :)

    Hi Stephanie. Catching you on the replay. I don’t foresee reparations ever being paid. I don’t think those who have left or those contemplating leaving have lost their voice. If anything it’s been heightened and is just as valuable. I have never thought of living elsewhere. I typically take two trips a year. I love traveling. It has always been good to me and good for me. It has been on hold since 2022 because my spouse suffered a medical emergency-stroke. I am excited about resuming travel in the fall of this year. It will start in Barbados. I was diligent in saving, matched my company’s contributions and was able to retire early. My husband is on the mend and so that wanderlust is calling. You, Roshida, and Adalia have been instrumental in me resuming the love of travel, nurturing oneself, and understanding and accepting that delayed is not denial. Looking forward to this years Exodus Summit. Last year’s Exodus Summit armed me with the tools to start a few side projects. The money has been great. Thank you for everything.

    I love to travel and have started looking at places for longer slow travel. One of the things I made sure to research is the laws, governmental system, and economic state of where I plan to consider long term. I find most people miss those items and sometimes in ignorance they are blissfully moving somewhere without proper research. I am happy I have traveled and found a few countries I am interested in. Also, seems the benefit of slow travel is that as a 'vacationer' that is traveling long term is the best of both worlds.

    I believe that white supremacy is global. While countries don’t mind a small number of black Americans living in their countries, ESPECIALLY IF THEY HAVE MONEY, but will that change as the numbers grow? I believe that it will. Also, many black women are not business owners or have access to remote work. A lot of foreign countries DO NOT like foreigners taking jobs from their citizens. In fact, some mandate that unless you work for an American company in their country, there are little to no work opportunities for foreigners. I have seen RUclips videos of Americans who moved to Spain, Italy and such and they talk about the racism they have encountered. Many of these countries love to boast about a famous black American who has settled in their country but the regular degular blacks, NOT SO MUCH. Anti immigration isn’t just an American phenomenon. Africa isn’t looking all that promising either. There has been some Americans who have met questionable demises there, especially when they acquire land. I know a lot of people who have no love for this country but they either don’t have the means to leave, cannot bear to leave family behind, or just don’t know if this move would be like jumping out of the frying pan into the fire. I think there needs to be real honest dialogue regarding this. Because I’m not sold on this being a solution for many of us, given our economic and work realities.

      I think we are programmed with a lot of limited thinking in the US that downgrades our value and what we have to offer. Though the challenges that you mention are very real if people worked on themselves and learned about their purpose here the sky is the limit. We spend too much time in our heads thinking about the process and barriers to moving instead of putting action to the things we say we want in life. A lot of black women are very creative and resourceful because we had to be but we use those strengths to benefit everyone else but ourselves. Every country will not be a good fit but if you aren't satisfied in the US there is a world to explore that could be better suited for you but you don't know if you don't try.

      You do have legitimate concerns. When I moved abroad, I just kept my eyes focused on The Most High and he made a way for me.

Just do research on a country you desire to live and pray before you visit and continue on from there. The answer will come to you.

I was stunned to hear that outta her mouth. I think we may be owed but that's a debt that will never be paid. Even if something was put in place, collecting it would be a never ending battle. They'd put it on paper but filling thru, I can't c that happening.

    WS is global so leaving the US doesn't mean one is suddenly free from concern. However, women should leave if they want, just know the deal. I am a senior and will likely live out my days in the US. I travel a lot, mostly cruises, and so far it has worked for me. My favorite country is Switzerland but it has changed like much of Europe due to current events so it is no longer as easy as it once was.

If we supported this country to help ensure its success, we should certainly be able to do that for one another.

    Believe me, I want to leave, badly!!! But money is what holds me back. I have no savings, I’m in a job that barely pays me enough to pay all of my bills none the less save to move. On top of that, debt that I’m still paying down, including taxes.
    Add in that I do not want to go to a country that is “less expensive” but I’m coming with American Dollars and throwing their economy for a loop. I’m not an expat, I’ll call it as it is: I’m and immigrant. I want to be ethical with my travel and where I go. I have a dog, a house and a car, believe me I’ll happily give it up, it’s just scary with having no financial stability, the process of getting rid of those things and ethical travel is really hard for me.

It’s costly, so I can only imagine having to fly across the world to get back to her or any sick family member or in the event of death. That is my main concern!

      I agree. Having a military father, I was exposed to travel and the world at an early age. Unfortunately, most Blacks didn't have such exposure. I went to school in another country and started college in another country.
      Many Blacks are now traveling as adults. As for me being the "new girl" all the time, I learned to adapt to life outside the US. As a kid, in my teens and 20s.
      Early exposure is key. Not just for Blacks but for anyone. Because when we age, we become complacent, and it's daunting to make huge changes. Like moving out of your country and learning another language.
      Most Black women won't leave the US. Which is perfectly fine. However, I hope they are prepared for a "what if" scenario. As the US is sinking and sinking, slowly but surely. Everyone will not make it off to safety.

      The idea for reparations is not a new thing. They are what were promised to Black Americans immediately after Emancipation. Of course, the U.S. government reneged. Ever since though, Black Americans have been fighting for what is owed to us by this country.
      Whether or not they are ever paid does not change the fact that they are owed.

Because most of us aren't getting jobs in our newly adopted countries, although we could. And how many of us have some of our retirement funds in other currencies? This is the only reason why I'm still invested in the U.S. succeeding, but we don't have to live in the U.S. for that to happen.

Additionally, there are many retirees who rely on Social Security.

    Good video. Black Americans have no responsibility to “save” the country. You owe it to yourself to go where you are treated well and are happy.

    Wow, this is eye-opening!!. I thought about leaving somewhere else because of how we're treated in the USA. I teach nursing students and am not sure if can find remote jobs in other countries. Love your discussion!

    I made a script to answer the questions that I get from family and friends. Why am I leaving United States?”Dr Martin King and Mr Malcom X and countless others, fought a good fight which is still being fought today. President Obama is still trying to gain equality which is the same screams from eras gone by and still we are given nuggets to aid in the economics. The struggles and fights that we may seem as a win is met with brand new unjust issues, or a decorated redesign of the social and economic issues that we as “people of color“ will continue to endure. So leaving this country is not running away from a fight. It’s why continue to fight an unending battle with people who have inherited hate, easily influenced by opinions; and facts be damned. You hate what you fear and you fear what you hate.” I love me and I hate no one.
