[align=center]PRESS RELEASE[/align]


[align=center]International Monitory Fund[/align]
[align=center]& World Bank:[/align]
“The new enslavers of Afrika and Afrikans Worldwide�

DEMONSTRATION: 25[suP]th[/suP] May 1600 – 1900hrs

Haymarket, London SW1



[size=We, the Afrikan people living in the ][size=United Kingdom][/size][size= and our Pan- Afrikanist organizations, in solidarity and in alliance with global governments and organisations, wish to place in record our total condemnation of the International Monitory Fund (IMF) and its co-conspirator, the ‘World’ Bank. They have become, and still remain in 2007, the new ‘slave owners’ who continue to enslave Afrikan people at home and aboard. Their predecessors, also our enslavers, controlled and directed governments, private industries and churches which were all used to disable, dehumanize and exploit Afrikan people. Today they continue to do so by withholding our justified reparations for these crimes against humanity whilst simultaneously retaining us in criminal ‘death bondage’.][/size][/size]

[size=][/size]

[size=We do not owe them, they owe us!][size= ][/size][/size]

[size=][/size]

[size=We therefore call on all governments within the Afrikan nation, at both home and aboard, to Stop and examine their so-called debts to the World Bank and the IMF and have such debts, as well as the processes in which they were allegedly incurred, inspected by Afrikan Centered Accountants. Then we and the world will see if these so-called ‘outstanding payments’ are justified debt or rather the result of creative accountancy in the process of western international theft on a massive scale. ][/size]

[size=][/size]

[size=We call on the global Afrikan masses to rise up and support any government or other Organisation that will lead its people towards these goals. ][/size]

[size=][/size]

[size=Afrikan people are demanding Reparations, not only for hundreds of years of enslavement of our people, but also in the form of an immediate end to the relentless exploitation carried out against Afrikans under plans hatched and often executed by the World Bank and the IMF.][/size]

[size=][/size]

[size=We call upon the mass of Afrikan people and their allies to continue the fight for Reparations and to support the following upcoming events:-][/size]

[size=][/size]

Afrika Liberation Day (ALD) planning Committee fully supports the call for reparations and call for an end to paying off the so-called debt allegedly owed by Afrikan nations to western bankers by way of creative accountancy.



By 1807, Afrikans had already liberated Santo Domingo – later known as Haiti – a feat achieved in 1804. Why would William Wilberforce, as a member of parliament at the time, vote to send troops to try and crush the victory of those same Afrikan people and re-enslave them, if 3 years later he truly committed himself to help them?



It was Afrikans, through the daily rebellions on the plantation, at the sea ports at home and in the Americas, on the transport ships, during so-called ‘seasoning’ when more than one third were killed, who put an end to enslavement.



Afrikans resisted our enslavement at every moment, at every level and in every way possible.



We therefore call on all of the governments within the Afrikan Nation, at home and abroad, to provide Afrikan people worldwide with information on the TRUTH about our liberation, including the names and history of our true heroes and sheroes within their territories, so that Afrikans can give informed responses to the lie of William Wilberforce’s Imperial generosity.








ALD Demonstration


Our ancestors defeated slavery then and our duty is to defeat modern day

slavery now. Join us in our protest against modern day enslaving

institutions. The protest will take place at 4pm Friday 25th May outside:

The World Bank Office

New Zealand House, 80 The Haymarket, London SW1 (Tube: Charing Cross)

Please bring your: Camcorders, Drums, Banners and Whistles

Africa"still" posesses the most abundant resources of all the countries in the"so-called" civilized world.

The surreal attack on her (AFRAKA) and her people remains aperpetual mind-sore.

Thanks for posting this information!

nigeria has wasted $250 billion of its own resources to corruption and mismanagement. thats as much as the entire african continent received in "loans" by the richer nations.

i'd rather portest about that.

there needs to be a concerted effort amongst africans in the west to make their voices known about the corruption and bad leadership africa is suffereing from. some of you are friends with these leaders children..and go bars chasing girls with them.

these leaders have houses in london bought with cash only a few months after taking public office.

what about protesting against these people? im all for protesting against the slavery remix that the world bank and co stand for, but.. at the same time jeeeeeeeez..there has been aloooooooooooooooooooot of absolute waste taken place in africa BY african leaders. i am fearing that the lastest converts to the african leadership mantra of "God bless ME and no one else"..is south africa and the ANC. confused3


dodgy loans that were wasted anyway... have two culprits: the people who gave the dodgy loan and the people who wasted the money on mercedes and lavish houses.

from. some of you are friends with these leaders children..and go bars chasing girls with them

True.

Some people keep some very intresting secrets.
