Event Summary :
Omali Yeshitela, Chairman of the African Socialist International and Penny Hess, Chair of the African People's Solidarity Committee will speak on how whites and other allies can take a principled stand of solidarity with African people to overturn the conditions faced by African people in the US and around the world.
The African People’s Solidarity Committee and the Uhuru Solidarity Movement are organizations of primarily Euro - Americans working under the leadership of the African People’s Socialist Party that leads the Uhuru Movement. We believe that rectifying the relationship between the white population and African and oppressed peoples is the most pressing and urgent priority of this period.
We live in an era of profound crisis when everything around us is in flux, when U.S. wars proliferate around the world, the economy is crashing and climate change wreaks havoc. We believe that the only future for the planet is to go for- ward as one, in true solidarity with all of humanity. There is no individual solution and it is in our profound interest to join the majority of the earth’s peoples in actively transforming the world.
The Days in Solidarity, which will be held in San Diego and Oakland, California, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and St. Petersburg, Florida in October of this year, offer a chance for white people to understand how the world truly got the way it is and to begin to see the profound opportunities for the future by looking at the present and the past through the lens of African and oppressed peoples.
