They are the ideas upon which the organizations which Bono has been a part of establishing for Africa&amp;#39;s Future (including RED) are founded: increased fairer trade with African countries, sufficient aid to these countries while they are building up their economies and a spiritual affiliation with &amp;amp; appreciation of Africa, the original home of humankind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we can fully see our advocacy for Africa and our financial support of efforts such as (RED) and EDUN not as something that we do out of our love &amp;amp; respect for a Rock star but as something that we do out of our Love &amp;amp; Respect for the Mother Continent of humankind, then we will see the true flourishing of our efforts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until then, please continue to raise your voice for Africa, B0N0. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is the MOST EFFECTIVE &lt;br /&gt;international voice for Africa that we have.
