The purpose of the Pan-Afrikan day of Solidarity is to establish a day on which Afrikan people can congregate in a communitarian spirit to pay homage to African deities, revere African ancestors, honor African elders; and demonstrate a show of Pan-Afrikan Solidarity, by bringing together Afrikan people in the Diaspora and from the continent, to stand in Unison. Among other things, the Pan-Afrikan Day of Solidarity is about the celebration of Afrikan Family-hood, Afrikan History and Afrikan Culture. It’s about raising the social consciousness and deepening the political awareness of Afrikan people. In addition, this day is about networking with one another, promoting Afrikan unity and propagating Pan-Afrikanism. In short, the purpose of the Pan-Afrikan Day of Solidarity is to create a harmonious atmosphere wherein Afrikan people can commune in a celebratory spirit, to re-affirm the Afrikan personality.
The Pan-Afrikan Day of Solidarity is a MOVEMENT that seeks to fulfill ten fundamental objectives:
1: To establish an effective networking and communication system amongst the Pan-Afrikan community (local, national and international);
2: To forge a system of operational unity amongst the progressive elements within the Afrikan community;
3: To establish a Pan-Afrikan code-of-conduct and initiate a Pan-Afrikan system of accountability;
4: To enhance the promotion of Pan-Afrikan thought and practice;
5: To serve as a spring board from which to launch a progressive system of Pan-Afrikan cooperative-economics;
6: To create a Pan-Afrikan Council to organize, and provide a structural format, for the various Pan-Afrikan groups;
7: To initiate a progressive and organized system of community control and revitalization;
8: To establish Pan-Afrikan studies classes and strengthen the existing ones;
9: To launch a systematic campaign to establish Pan-Afrikan-centered schools; and
10: To serve as a nexus and bridge between Afrikan Brothers and Sisters from the Mother Land and those of us in the Diaspora.
