Our Mission
We guide African Americans on transformative homecoming journeys that heal historical trauma, build cultural bridges, and reclaim ancestral connections.
Why We Exist
For four centuries, the transatlantic slave trade severed millions of African people from their homelands, languages, and cultures. Queen Mother Strong was founded to help African Americans reconnect with the continent—not as tourists, but as descendants returning home.
We believe that homecoming is a sacred act of reclamation. When you walk through the Door of No Return, stand on ancestral soil, and meet living communities thriving across the continent, something shifts. History is no longer abstract. Africa is no longer "over there." You are home.
Our Core Values

We honor the connections between African people everywhere, building bridges across the diaspora and the continent.
