The Afri Bar, LLC, is pleased to announce that in
compliance with state and federal government regulations, the anticipated
population of the Afri Plex Community meets the requirements for the Afri Bar,
LLC, to pursue the legal designation of The City of Afri, thus establishing the
Afri Bar as a formally recognized privately owned gay city and commercial resort
destination.
Gated community vs Micro City?
Safety and exclusivity are several reasons many
people turn to gated communities. One of the major benefits of living in a
gated community is the safety and exclusivity it aims to provide. Only
residents may come and go as they please while guests must usually be vetted by
a guard or given access by the residents to access the community. This makes a
gated community appear more secure and exclusive in its neighborhood environment.
A Micro city may be defined as “a small,
self-contained urban area designed to be sustainable and innovative. Micro
cities are often built to address specific needs within a community or neighborhood;
while combining residential, commercial, recreational, and other uses, Micro
cities are also designed to foster a better sense of community.
The Afri Bar is a dual-purpose, commercial gay
resort and private gay residence “privately owned” known as the City of Afri,
by the Afri Bar, LLC, that operates as a year-round commercial gay resort and
private gay residence offering their Guests access to the Afri Bar’s amenities,
activities, products, goods, and services which are completely situated on Afri
Bar property and are deemed “privately owned spaces” with applicable public
permitted access for the purpose of defining these spaces.
As a gated community, the Afri Plex has been
specifically designed as the first of its kind aimed at gay African, African
American, and the gay Black male demographic “first” because homophobia,
stigma, and discrimination can be especially hard for black men who are gay and
bisexual, who also maintain relationships with men and have sex with men. Negative
attitudes can increase their chances of experiencing violence which can include
behaviors such as bullying, teasing, harassment, physical assault, and
suicide-related behaviors and we intend to curate an environment that is
supportive, and free of fear and oppression within the community and City of
Afri.
Considering the Afri Plex may be modeled after a
public town, county, or city, the Afri Plex, the Afri Bar, and the City of Afri
is a privately owned gated community with an intended purpose open to gay
adults 18 years of age and older as a master-planned development modeled as a
micro city, town, or municipal for up to 36 thousand residents (tentatively).
While immediate access to the City of Afri may be limited
to resort guests, residents, their guests, and employees working on the grounds
of the City of Afri, the City of Afri may be accessible to the public at the sole discretion of the Afri Bar, LLC, as any
public gay community. However, all visitors to the City of Afri are governed by
the rules, laws, and regulations of the City of Afri in addition to all
municipal, state, and federal laws that govern the locality of the City of Afri.
As the City of Afri is a dual-purpose, commercial
gay resort and private gay residence, a healthy local economy is a necessary ingredient of a
successful community, and the local economy of the City of Afri is driven by its
resort guests, residents, visitors, and employees, including small, medium, and
large businesses that support the operations of the Afri Bar and the Afri Plex
Community.
Notwithstanding the intent, purpose, and mission
statement of the Afri Bar, LLC, the population demographics of the City of Afri
including its racial, ethnic, gender, and cultural composition is solely
determined at all times by the Afri Bar, LLC, as the Afri Plex Community is a
privately owned gated community with an intended purpose, wholly owned by the
Afri Bar, LLC.
The Afri Plex Community is a live, work, and play
property where life is made differently. Terms and conditions may apply.
