Afrikan
Rememberance Day
August
the 1st is increasingly being recognised amongst Afrikan
people as the day for Afrikan Rememberance when we commemorate
the lives and the glorious efforts of of the hundreds
of milions of our people who have died and continue to
do so at the hands of our enemies..
World
Is Afrika would like to encourage every Afrikan who visit
this site, or know about Afrikan rememberance Day otherwise,
to observe the day come August 1st 2003. Along with your
entire family, rise early on the morning, pour libation
and give thanks to the Creator, Mother Earth and our Ancestors
for giving us the strength and the fortitude to survive
the greatest holocaust every endured by any people.
Most
importantly, make sure that your children are present
and that they participate and that they understand what
it is that is being commemorated and what it means for
them as young Afrikans living in the 21st century.

August
1st was originally recognised as emancipation day and
marked the emergency of Africans from chattle slavery,
the crudest form of mental and physical subjugation that
we suffered. To keep things in perspective it is important
for us to realise that the end of chattle slavbery did
not just come about as a result of the lobbbying and campaigning
of white liberals, but largely due to the resistance and
determination of Afrikans to be free. So this marked a
victory and a significant gain for us that was worth commemorating.
This
theme was later taken up by the Hon Marcus Garvey in the
1920's when he declared August the 1st as Afrikan Freedon
Day and commemorated the entire month of August with his
UNIA conventions.
In
recent times this has seen a new lease of life mainly
linked with the global Afrikan Reparation campaign in
which our people all over the world have renewed and increased
our demands for recognision of, and compensation for this
great crime that has been perpetrated against us by Arabs,
Europeans and black traitors.
Let
us be realistic and understand that, in perfect timing
with the New World Order that is being unleashed, there
is a new holocaust being perpetrated right in the heart
of the Afrikan continent. This time around it is the hands
of Afrikans that are being used to murder by literally
chopping each other to bits.
It
is the duty of all of us to once and for all put a stop
to genocide against Afrikans. One of the best ways to
do this is to commemorate Afrikan Rememberance Day, understand
it's meaning and significance and to begin to take whatever
action is necessary to....
STOP
GENOCIDE AGAINST AFRIKANS!
