“We cannot allow Africa to unite, control its own resources or develop” Kwame Nkrumah challenged this, and exposed how imperialism continued after independence, and he was violently overthrown by a coup sponsored by the usual suspects. Today, some misguided Africans are asking, “why should we continue to blame the... show more

Kwame Nkrumah Was Overthrown For Making Africans Too Politically Conscious - Kwesi Pratt Jnr Ghanaian journalist Kwesi Pratt Jr. says the overthrow of Kwame Nkrumah was not because he was a dictator, as many were taught. Instead, he argues the real reason was that Nkrumah was making Africans more politically aware and harder to control. He points to a 1961 cable from British High Commissioner A.W. Snelling urging Britain to remove Nkrumah for this reason. He also cites declassified documents from the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, which contradict the official story and suggest foreign involvement. According to Pratt, even foreign intelligence doubted that the local actors credited with the coup had the ability to carry it out on their own.

THE BOOK THAT GOT NKRUMAH DEPOSED? Today marks 59 years since pan-African icon and Ghana's founding leader Kwame Nkrumah was removed from office in a military coup engineered by the CIA. After leading Ghana to independence from British colonial rule in 1957, Nkrumah embarked on a mission to unite the African people on the continent and in the diaspora. It was his firm belief that Africans share not only a common history, but a common destiny. He was one of the founding leaders of the African Union's predecessor, the Organization of African Unity, in 1963. In a key speech at the opening summit, he eloquently made the case for African unity. He explained that true independence and prosperity could only be attained if African nations united on both the economic and political front. He said this was the only way they could defeat the menace posed by the neo-colonial system, which was hell-bent on maintaining its control over the continent, even as most countries attained 'flag independence.' To the CIA, revolutionary pan-African leaders like Nkrumah were a danger that needed to be 'neutralised.' Their words were seen as threats by the US establishment. It is perhaps telling that it was only after Nkrumah's overthrow that the IMF engaged in debt restructuring with Ghana. In this clip, Nkrumah's editorial assistant, June Milne, relates how his book - Neo-Colonialism, The Last Stage of Imperialism - was the last straw for the US. In it, he detailed how Western countries were looting Africa's resources. Milne claims the book spurred Washington into sponsoring the coup that removed him.

This is how Arabs and/or Arabized Africans think about Tanetjerians/Black Africans. This is why I've said that two of the greatest ideological threats to Tanetjerians are White Supremacy and Arab Supremacy/Pan-Arabism. Allowing Arab Supremacy/Pan-Arabism to spread in Africa is a death sentence to Tanetjerians/Black Africans. We have a legitimate reason to want the removal of anything Arab in Africa by any means necessary if this is how they're moving. You cannot and should not co-exist with people who openly express these vile and evil thoughts about Tanetjerians/Black Africans in Africa. If they don't consider us humans, then neither should we.

Félix Houphouët-Boigny: The Man Who Betrayed Africa On March 6, 1957, Ghana’s first President and Pan-Africanist icon, Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumah, stood at the helm of a newly-independent Ghana, and shared his vision of a truly sovereign, truly united and truly powerful Africa. That vision was cut short on February 24, 1966, when Nkrumah was overthrown in a CIA-backed coup. 9 years before this coup, and a month after his nation’s independence, Nkrumah went to Abidjan, the capital of Côte d’Ivoire, for a high-level meeting with the country’s first President and full-throated stooge of the West, Félix Houphouët-Boigny. Africa would perhaps look very different today, if Nkrumah had really understood the intentions of the person he was meeting. This is the story of how one man betrayed an entire continent.

Iran has attacked the US more than 40 times since 1979. We cannot allow this regime to continue its attacks against Americans, and it can never develop a nuclear weapon – that said, we do not want war with Iran. We want peace through strength.

Allowing the EFF to continue with their criminality will send the message to South Africans and the world that violence and thuggery is a legitimate form of protest. We cannot allow this to happen.

The west just has that mentality that they owned Africa and its resources. But the truth is we are waking up to unite and take back control of our continent, like in the days of Mansa Musa and other kings who controlled most of their resources and land.

This is a time for an honest conversation amongst South Africans. We cannot continue denying the pain which some South Africans feel about not having access to land. We cannot continue denying the fears that some have about an incompetent and corrupt government taking land.

My colleagues and I were treated appallingly by members across the House today. Injustice, however, must continue to be challenged, truth cannot be bullied and smeared into submission and oblivion. We shall continue to speak out no matter how hostile the environment.

After everything I’ve seen online…it feels as though destructive forces, not reason or ethics, are shaping the world right now. May God, by whatever name, help us restore some sense and humanity. We cannot allow this satanic evil to continue the same way.

This Zimbabwean man was attacked in Cape Town by Afrophobics the next day after visiting South Africa to see his relative. He was fully documented and did not commit a crime or steal anyone's job. It's time we start asking South Africans in Zimbabwe to go back home as well.

🇪🇺 The Nord Stream cover-up buried the truth… and Europe's leverage. Professor Glenn Diesen breaks down how Germany's consensus politics left the continent dependent, exposed, and unable to ask the questions that matter. "The more we dig into the Nord Stream story, the more uncomfortable we are with what we're finding. So we just stopped asking questions." Europe didn't lose its energy independence by accident.

“There is no xenophobia in South Africa. We are simply asking foreigners to leave the country. We do not hate you. Thank you, Ghana, for coming for your people. We call on all Africans to return to their respective countries so that we can fix South Africa. If we want a united Africa, let us unite as well-functioning African countries.” — Phakel’umthakathi, a South African man, says there is no xenophobia in South Africa, stressing that South Africans are merely asking foreign nationals to return to their home countries and fix them while South Africans work to fix their own country as well
