African Liberation Day 2012
Saturday May 26, 2012

When the first African Liberation Day Demonstration was held in 1972 the U.S. front of the African liberation movement was reeling from deathblows being delivered by the U.S. government in a counteroffensive that had littered the international landscape with the bodies of murdered black freedom fighters around the world.
Hundreds, perhaps thousands of others, were rounded up at gunpoint and herded into concentration camp jails and prisons in the U.S.
This was the U.S. response to the changing world that was reducing the list of hosts that U.S. and European parasitic capitalism relied on for its existence.
Since the bloody carnage of the Second Imperialist world war between the U.S. and European powers to re-divide the world the struggles of the peoples beaten down by imperial white power had escalated to an alarming degree.
