(FinalCall.com) -- On Friday, October 25, 1996, the National Black United Front (NBUF) launched a National Petition Drive charging the United States Government with genocide.

The National Black United Front takes the position that the proliferation of the distribution and sale of crack cocaine by Africans in America street organizations has reached epidemic proportions, causing serious harm to the African community in America. This harm can only be described as acts of genocide by the United States government through its Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

In addition to the acts of genocide perpetuated through the CIA and in this recent revelation, acts of genocide can also be attributed to the government's use of taxpayers resources to wage war on a segment of the American population. This can be evidenced by the following:

1. Cutting back on welfare programs and so-called housing reform;

2. Privatization of public housing and land grab schemes by

private developers of inner-city neighborhoods;

3. Privatization of public education under the banners of choice, charter schools, and vouchers;

4. Racist immigration policies;

5. Privatization of basic health care and lack of public policies that will lead to an AIDS cure;

6. Building of prisons and the expanding incarceration of millions of Africans and Latinos, primarily youth, as a solution to social, economic and political problems in the United States.

The results of these public policy retrenchments has caused devastation of African communities throughout America. This has caused vast wastelands of violence, poverty and ignorance resulting in the destruction of generations of African youth.
