The world is getting smaller every time I look at how the world is starting to integrate and solve problems. In the next twenty years, either we will be able to choose our own path or continue to not form corporations and trade with the Continent of Africa with all of her riches and minerals. Now is the time where you plan for a vision that you will not see for twenty or so years. As long as you stay on target, you will be prepared.
My dear brother Julius Malema is calling on KiSwahili to be the lingua franca of Africa. I happen to think his idea is a great one. Keep in mind that Julius is not a native KiSwahili speaker but he sees it as a unifying language. You can still speak your native language if you wish. Lesson: What's the downside to being bilingual?

I am creating a free language program that I call Pamoja. In KiSwahili it means: together or unity. I want it to be simple and effective. As I write this program, the only dependencies for this program will be GTK and Vorbis. It is written in C++
There are a lot of Euro-minded African Americans that want to speak a European language and that is OK with me. The future is not in Europe, it's changing to Africa and I think you should be prepared. We have to fight back on multiple fronts and this is a major front so let's get to learning. I will be using a voice actor to teach the lessons. By the time you finish, you should be very familiar with the language and you should be able to hold a basic conversation.
That is the outline but we have a billion things more that we will have to add. I will add to it and update the code as we go along. I can speak KiSwahili but I cannot read and so this will help me too. The code is open source so that there will be no barriers to learning.

Think of what we can do, if we do things TOGETHER!
