Did you know?

AFRICOM (U.S. Africa Command) is another word for the U.S. plans for the military occupation of Africa in order to expropriate its vast natural resource, while a third of African people face starvation!

NORTHCOM escalates the war on the black community in the U.S. The military base in Ft. Stewart, GA has 70,000+ troops poised to contain "civil unrest" in the U.S., violating U.S. law.

The African Socialist International, led by the Uhuru Movement, is uniting African people worldwide to control their own resources and to unify & liberate Africa!

• Become an ally of this movement for African liberation!
The Uhuru Solidarity Movement organizes in the white community to support African people's right to control their own resources & communities!
