On Tuesday September 3, , the first day of the Uhuru 3 trial, the Hands Off Uhuru! Hands Off Africa! Fightback Coalition in London, England mobilized the African Liberation Movement, friends, allies and freedom-loving people to attend a historic demonstration demanding that the U.S. government drop all of the FBI’s bogus political charges against Chairman Omali Yeshitela, Penny Hess and Jesse Nevel, known as the Uhuru 3.

With about 30 people attending, the demonstration was a success. Participants came directly from their jobs to the U.S. embassy to voice their condemnation of the U.S. government’s vile attack on free speech and on the rights of the African Liberation Movement to speak for itself.

Participants included leaders and members from the Uhuru Movement, Moyo wa Toifa, Minkah Adofo from Afruika Bantu Saturday School, Alkebu Revitalist Movement, Patrice Lumumba Coalition, Campaign for Truth and Justice, Islamic Human Rights Commission, Huseyin and Stop the Gaza Genocide group.

Despite his illness, it was great to see brother Pepukayi from the Pan Africanist Community Movement (PACM). He is one of the people Chairman Omali Yeshitela met during his historic 1983 trip to London, where he introduced the reparations question.

Every speaker recognized the role played by Chairman Omali and the Uhuru Movement in providing revolutionary political education, not just to the Black community worldwide but to the entire anticolonial movement around the world.

Everyone recognizes that the Uhuru 3 are being attacked because they represent the vanguard of the struggle for black liberation within U.S. borders.

Most of the participants left the event fully mobilized and committed to further mobilizations until victory.
