May 25th (Memorial Day Monday)

Omenala Griot Museum, 337 Dargan Place, Atlanta Georgia 30310


“Honor Kwame Nkrumah: The Global Crisis calls for Global Unity Build One Unified Socialist Africa”

“Pan-Africanism is the total (African) Liberation and Unification of Africa under Scientific Socialism”

-Kwame Nkrumah

Africans around the world let’s unite to end the exploitation of Africa and African people around the world. Together we can end poverty; end mis-education; end un-clean water supplies; end poor health. . . We must be scientific in our approach so not to waste time and resources. Africa is calling all the daughters and sons to build a better Africa. Through organizations we can work together collectively and resolve our problems. If you are not in an organization, join an organization working for our people. No matter where you were born or live, as long as you are Black, you are an African and Osegeyfo Kwame Nkrumah says, ‘we belong to the African nation‘.

-Oyah Menen - All African Women’s Revolutionary Union
