Americans opposing the Western invasion of Libya and the oppression of African-Americans in both Africa and the United States plan to rally this weekend in Harlem at Malcolm X boulevard and 110th Street at 10am. The Millions March, organized by affiliates of the Nation of Islam and the December 12th Movement, is touted as a call to end the “sytematic assault of African communities.”
“NATO and America are trying to recolonize Africa through AFRICOM (African Command),” said Minister Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam during a press conference at the UN Plaza Hotel in June. “My question to African leaders is ‘will you allow it?’ Out of fear of the so-called power of the West, will you bow down and act against the interest of African people world wide?” Minister Farrakhan has long been an ally of Libyan leader Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, who Farrakhan said “has been a principal advocate and organizer for a United States of Africa which threatens the international power structure.”
Minister Farrakhan has been critical of President Obama, the United State’s first self-designated African-American president. “You better wake up, Black people, and not be deceived by the fact a Black man is in the White House. It’s great that he’s there, if what he does there helps us all,” he said in an interview with Donald Winkfield of Black Star News. “Now, he’s done something for Gays; he’s done something for Unions; he’s done something this one, something for that one… Let’s see what he does for Black people and for Africa.”
“There comes a time when people have no alternative but resistance,” said Viola Plummer, a voice in the December 12th Movement International Secretariat, regarding the Millions March. “This march will revitalize the Pan African movement. It will broaden our peoples’ world view and demonstrate the need for Africans to unite in our own political and economic interests internationally. We must expose the United Nations Security Council machinations, western imperialism, the attack on Black people in the US, and all collaborators at every turn.”
