Subject: [BRC-NEWS] African Liberation Day Symposium in Chicago
> On May 14th, 1999, in Chicago at 700 E. Oakwood, NBUF, Chicago Chapter,
> will be sponsoring an African Liberation Day Symposium. Viola Plummer of
> the December 12th Movement will be the featured speaker.
>
> Sis. Plummer is a longtime movement activist, organizer, and leader who
> sprang out of the 1960's. It is important that we keep the ALD tradition
> alive. However, when African Liberation Day emerged in 1963, the
> continent of Africa was experiencing the fight for independence from
> colonial rule, white supremacy and imperialism. Here in the U.S. we
> celebrated the first ALD in May of 1972. However, the conditions in
> Africa have changed dramatically as we observe the efforts of the former
> slave trading nations; Britain, France, Portugal, and the United States
> moving to attempt to re-colonize Africa. Therefore, our symposium will
> focus on the continued genocide, racism, and white supremacy against
> African people throughout the world. Sister Plummer just returned from
> Geneva, Switzerland where the December 12th Movement has been engaged in
> very important work at the United Nations on behalf of African people for
> several years. She will report on this work.
