1st Annual Ghana Parade (Bronx,NY)

The Ghana Parade Council (GPC) has joined ranks with The National Council of Ghanaian Associations (NCOGA) to make an unprecedented event. This event as described by the GPC will set the foundation for Ghanaians far and near to express their cultural pride and contributions to New York City , especially in the Bronx, which has the largest population of Ghanaians in the United States .

This group of young and dynamic Ghanaian professionals through their grass root efforts has been able to circumvent the bureaucracy of planning a community event by securing permits, galvanizing Ghanaian Associations from the tri-state area, vendors and the Ghanaian residents of NYC to put together this paramount event. They will showcase cultural performers and are providing some of the hottest hip-life, and high-life talent.

This historic event will be attended by some of New York City ’s most respected political leaders. Namely, Deputy Bronx Borough President, Ms. Aurelia Greene, Assembly Woman Vanessa L. Gibson (77th District), Assemblyman Michael Benjamin (79th District), Council member Helen Diane Foster (16th District), and the Mayor’s Office.

With the continued financial support from the various Ghanaian Associations of New York , family, and friends this event is guaranteed to be a success. This is a testament to the support and commitment the elders have bestowed on the youth organizers of this historic event.

GPC has done what no other Ghanaian Association has been able to do, and will continue to aspire for great things in the community. Hopefully this will inspire young Ghanaians to have passion and conviction in their planning for the Ghanaian community.

GPC is asking all Ghanaians near and far to join ranks with them to make this a successful event.  Bring your Ghana flags, wear your traditional clothes, and more importantly, come out that day to Crotona Park in the Bronx to show your pride and celebrate our culture.

African Liberation Day 2009

African Liberation Day
Get on the Bus!

On May 23-24, Africans from the U.S. , Canada and elsewhere in the dispersed African world will converge on Washington , D.C. for African Liberation (ALD). Recognizing that ALD cannot just be a celebration of some liberation that the African nation has not yet won, the African Peoples Socialist Party (APSP) will be using this ALD mobilization to forever change the North American front of African (Black) liberation movement. The theme of this year’s ALD is “Separated by Colonial Slavery, Reunited by Revolutionary Resistance! “.

With this ALD mobilization the APSP is calling on African people to join the African Socialist International, a worldwide revolutionary organization to unite and liberate Africa and her dispersed people! While ALD has always been a strategic tool of the African Peoples Socialist Party to bring masses of African (Black) people into revolutionary political life, this year’s ALD will serve as the conference to consolidate the North American Region of the African Socialist International – the single revolutionary organization that will function as the general staff for the  international African revolution necessary to liberate and unite Africa and African people worldwide under the leadership of the African working class. This is a very special undertaking, as this is part of a global effort to unify the African working class all over the world. Our first ASI regional conference was in October 2008 in Sierra Leone , West Africa with over 500 African organizations in attendance and we are soon to have an East African regional conference in Nairobi , Kenya in April.

In early March the Caribbean was rocked with resistance when masses of African workers rebelled against French colonialism in Martinique and Guadeloupe . Weeks later, we saw the same type of resistance occur in Kenya and Sierra Leone , where African workers rose up against the violent conditions imposed on us by neo-colonialism in those countries. Most recently, we began to see resistance in the U.S. , where from coast to coast the African working class is beginning to carry out courageous acts of resistance against U.S. colonial oppression.
