Republic of New Afrika (Wallace 1968)

Republic of New Afrika was a proposed African-American majority nation developed by the radicals of the Black Panther Party to secede from the United States. The nation would be located in the Southern United States with a planned capital located in Atlanta, GA. The idea was developed in Early 1969 before President George Wallace was in office. The idea later became more popular during the Wallace administration as many members were still angry at how unfair the African-Americans were being treated. Though not as popular as it was, the idea of this new republic lasted until 1990 when the Black Panther Party ceased to exist.
