The Houston Branch of the International People’s Democratic Uhuru Movement (InPDUM-Houston) was invited to attend and speak at a Black Lives Matter March for Human Rights on Saturday, May 20, 2017 in Downtown Houston, TX.

The Human Rights March was organized as a unity event to center blackness in all of the issues that we are facing in this country, state, city and all while trying to survive under U.S. president Donald Trump, according to its organizers.

The local InPDUM Houston branch decided that this would be a good opportunity to discuss human rights in the form of self-determination and freedom for African people as points 1 and 2 of InPDUM’s Revolutionary National Democratic Program of state: “We demand all rights consistent with being a free people, rights which include self-determination and self-government as the highest expression of genuine democracy. We demand independence in our lifetime. We demand international democratic rights and self-determination for African people throughout the world.”

We are excited to announce African Liberation day is back in Paris! The magnificent celebration will take place on June 10, 2017 at the Hotel Jean-Baptiste Clement.

The African People’s Socialist Party-France (APSP-France) organized African Liberation Day consecutively for three years, from 2012 to 2014.

Despite our initial success, we were unable to consolidate the existence of the Party as a stable political force in France.

We have learned from our experiences in France and are moving ahead with great anticipation to this year’s ALD, determined that it will be more than just a “nice event.”   

What is SOILdarity? It is unity with the land. It is our connection to our environment and ancestors.

WASHINGTON, D.C. At the founding meeting of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia on May 25, 1963, a resolution was passed establishing May 25th as African Liberation Day.
