Greetings to our African-Descendant Organizations and Justice-seeking Allies in the Oakland/San Francisco Bay Area:

In solidarity with the masses of people in Libya, the entire African continent, Haiti—and the millions upon millions facing increased imperialist military, police and corporate violence; as well as worsening conditions of life in communities, workplaces and prisons around the U.S., African Diaspora and internationally—We appeal to you and your organization’s members to join our STAND-UP FOR AFRICANS! Rally for Justice and Healing Gathering, on Saturday, 13 August 2011, at 11 am. We will assemble in the 1945 birthplace of the United Nations, downtown San Francisco, California. Our location is the United Nations’ Plaza, located on Market Street b/w Seventh & Eighth. (Take BART or MUNI trains to the United Nations’ Plaza/Civic Center stations). We are also expressing our unity with the Millions March being organized by the December 12th International Secretariat and others in Harlem, New York (please visit www.millionsmarchharlem.com for more information)

Sixty years ago, in 1951, our courageous Ancestors (such as WILLIAM and LOUISE PATTERSON, LOUIS BURNHAM, JOHN PITTMAN, JAMES MALLOY, HARRY HAYWOOD, ESLANDA and PAUL ROBESON, RUSSELL MEEK, W.E.B. DUBOIS, JAMES FORD, BENJAMIN DAVIS, and many other outstanding activists) organized the WE CHARGE GENOCIDE campaign to the United Nations’ General Assembly. They exposed to the world “The Crime of Government Against the Negro (African-descendants in the U.S.) People”; and sought to secure international support and immediate relief. It is in that great tradition—and the spirit of our collective Victory ten years ago at the U.N.’s “Third World Conference Against Racism” in Durban, South Africa—that WE STILL CHARGE GENOCIDE for the continuing crimes against humanity and nature; and proclaim that AFRICAN NATIONS AND ASCENDANTS DESERVE AND DEMAND REPARATIONS NOW!

We condemn the imperialists’ attempts to murder the Gadhafi family; to disrupt, dismantle, divide and destroy that independent nation’s infrastructure, economy, and self-defense capabilities; and, to accelerate their robbery of oil and militarization of the African continent. We also acknowledge the threat by some in the African Union to withdraw from the U.N. based on the “security council’s” (along with NATO’s and President Barack Obama’s) unjust and bombastic actions, in Libya. We are launching our “Dismantle the United Nations’ ‘Security Council’ Monopoly! Support Equality and Democracy Through One Nation/One Vote: Petition to the People of the World.” Finally, We are reactivating our “Establish a Permanent Forum for African Descendants at the U.N.” effort, from 2009. Your participation, leadership and contributions are most welcome to help popularize these campaigns for truth, justice, peace and Reparations.

In Unity! For those on the west coast who are unable to travel to New York, We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, 13 August, 11 am, at the United Nations Plaza, in Frisco!
