Pan-Afrikan Solidarity: "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere"
Blog posts reflect the views of their authors.
"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere" - Dr. Martin Luther King
Afrikans unite to advance the Afrikan Revolution
Sweep neocolonialism out of Afrika
We need to build Pan-Afrikan international solidarity organizations that will support the struggles of the people throughout the Pan-Afrikan world. The struggles in three Afrikan countries (Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya and Sudan) demand solidarity action with the people's quest to exercise control over their lives and resources. When imperialism and neocolonialsm are challenged in Afrika, it makes the task of fighting the forces of oppression in Canada much easier.
WHEN: Friday, August 10, 2012
WHERE: 252 Bloor Street West, OISE/University of Toronto (at the St. George subway station)
Room 5-150 (5th floor)
TIME: 7pm
Free event - donation accepted
