See all- African Liberation Day: Continuing the Struggle for a Free AfricaONE DC Black Workers & Wellness Center, Washington, DC
In 1963, African Liberation Day (ALD) was established as a permanent institution in the Pan-African movement, symbolizing the global struggle for African liberation. While we have not yet achieved complete liberation, ALD serves as a day for widespread political education, direct action and a reaffirmation of our commitment to Pan-Africanism. In the contemporary context, Pan-Africanism remains critical, especially in the Sahel region, where the alliance of Sahel states is playing a pivotal role in combating neocolonialism and promoting regional unity. This unity is essential for advancing the collective interests of Africa and addressing the challenges facing the continent today.
Join Pan-African Community Action (PACA) for an interactive Assata Shakur Study Group session, where we will explore global liberation struggles and reflect on the role of Africans, particularly in the DMV, in the world socialist revolution.
If you are in the DMV, please join us in-person at the Black Workers and Wellness Center, 2500 Martín Luther King Jr Ave, SE Washington DC.
