On November 1 through 3, 2024, the Black is Back Coalition for Social Justice, Peace and Reparations will hold its 16th Annual Black People’s March on the White House in Washington, D.C. A West Coast march will also be held for the second year in Los Angeles, CA.
This year’s march, rally and conference celebrate the recent victory of the Uhuru 3 as a profound achievement for the African Liberation Movement and the peoples of the world.
While the struggle is not over, the Uhuru 3 defeated the bogus foundational charge of “being a Russian agent,” that threatened a 10-year prison sentence in a federal colonial court system that boasts a 98 percent conviction rate. Comrades, this is historic.
The three were convicted of the lesser charge of conspiracy which they are confident will be overturned during the upcoming appeal.
This victory punctuates the resurrection of the Black Revolution against U.S. domestic colonialism and the colonial mode of production that has ensnared the world subsequent to the attack on Africa by Portugal 600 years ago.
This 2024 march takes place in a profound historic moment that the African People’s Socialist Party has helped usher in. This is the moment when the colonial question has been thrust onto center stage of world events by the struggles of the oppressed peoples everywhere.
From Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon, to the Congo, Haiti and Sudan, to the powerful fightback by the Uhuru Movement against the U.S. government’s attempts to silence the Black Revolution, colonized workers are rising up and winning across the globe.
This is a call for you to join the jubilant and victorious fight that is bringing us to the other side of the abyss of demoralizing defeat experienced by our anti-colonial struggle of the 1960s. This march announces that the struggle for happiness and the return of our self-determination and the stolen resources necessary for the social production of black life is alive and well.
Join with the thousands of people from throughout the U.S. and the world who have stood with the Hands Off Uhuru Movement and Black is Back to bring us to this place in history. The struggles of African and oppressed peoples opens a new door to advance our liberation by finally exposing and defeating the counterinsurgency of the 1960s that has hobbled our struggle for happiness and freedom up to this day.
After more than three generations the specter of the presumed dead Black Revolution of the 1960s thrust itself into full public view in a federal courthouse in Tampa, Florida on September 12, 2024, led by the African People’s Socialist Party, Chairman Omali Yeshitela’s fierce, relentless fight to “complete the Black Revolution of the ’60s” no matter what.
The existence of the Black is Back Coalition and the victory of the Uhuru 3 exposes and defeats Biden and Harris and the democratic party’s empty platforms—platforms that thousands of African people are deserting daily looking for the road to self-determination and power in our own hands.
The Party’s struggle embodies the same relentless fight seen with our comrades of the Palestinian struggle. As the writer Ahmad Ibsais recently wrote, “No matter what, Palestinians will never give up.”
Ibsais wrote, ”Even as our very existence is met with genocide, the people of Gaza embody…the unbreakable refusal to submit to subjugation. It is the moral backbone of Palestinian resistance.”
The fightback by the Party as the vanguard of the African Revolution has also shown the same unbreakable refusal to submit to subjugation.
With the political and economic configuration of the world economy undergoing rapid transformation, the fight for control of the unfolding new world order is increasingly manifest in the activities and behavior of the world’s peoples. Great powers like Russia and China; lesser powers like Iran and Venezuela are joined by peoples who do not have the benefit of state power, peoples that include the African People’s Socialist Party and others who exist as only so much flotsam in an ocean of colonial instability.
The exploitative and oppressive nature of the U.S. social system has become more blatant, forcing growing numbers of U.S. residents to question its legitimacy. As has been the case historically, the struggle of African people has been in the vanguard of exposing the oppressive nature of this system at a time when the U.S. rulers are attempting to pass the U.S. off as a champion of democracy in a contest with its “adversaries” who are painted as autocratic enemies of freedom.
This is after the brutal repression that brought military defeat of the Black Revolution of the Sixties through targeted assassinations of the likes of Malcolm X, Dr.Martin Luther King Jr. and dozens of Black Panther Party members, targeted and mass arrests of untold and unnamed numbers of African people, relentless barrage of slanderous colonial media assaults on the consciousness of all the peoples within the U.S., and the elevation of petty bourgeois domestic neocolonialists—white power in black faces—through whom colonial white power could exercise indirect rule.
The time is now to fight for our own power, to come together to free ourselves from this colonial bondage. We must take the victory of the Uhuru 3 to the streets, showing that when we fight, we win.
Free the Uhuru 3!
Victory to the African Revolution!
