why we are here

The need for a new education model for Afrikans and their descendants in the Diaspora should be apparent to anyone paying attention.  Afrikan-Centered Education has emerged as a proven alternative to traditional Eurocentric education found everywhere Europeans have colonized.  The purpose of Afrikan-centered education should be to teach Afrikan children to solve Afrikan problems, perpetuate Afrikan culture, and build Afrikan nations.  Clearly the “standard” educational system not only fails in achieving this goal, it actually miseducates our children and exacerbates the problems.  Too many generations of student have been miseducated.  This must end if we are to ever make progress as a people.  As Malcolm X stated, "Only a fool would let his enemy educate his children."

How is ACEF funded?

Our main source of funding will initially be donations from businesses and people like you.  The ACEF ecosystem will eventually powered by a cryptocurrency called niacoin (ticker symbol: NIA).  NIA will be used by supporters to donate to schools, by students to pay for courses, by schools to pay teachers, and by teachers to either spend or fund their retirement.  NIA will be able to be converted to fiat (USD, EUR, GBP, etc.) or other cryptocurrencies like bitcoin, ethereum, etc.
