One "God", One Goal, One destiny!

Amari Sneferu (Manager General)
In the spirit of our Ancestors, we must unite; based on our commonality of African descent, and based on our common condition of being oppressed throughout the world. It is in our common interest to pursue the goal of total liberation for all African people.
We endeavor to control our own destiny, and provide for ourselves the fruits of freedom, justice and global power.

UAPO AND PAN-AFRICANISM

Written by Amari Sneferu
The Universal African Peoples organization is pro-active and sometimes re-active on issues impacting our people on a global scale.
We have been pro-active in the fight to eradicate illiteracy in Ethiopia by shipping to Ethiopia, over 9,000 textbooks. We also shipped tons of relief supplies to Zimbabwe and Haiti, as we are committed to extending the humanitarian hand of support to our brothers and sisters in need.
UAPO under the leadership of Zaki Baruti, promotes the message that we are a global people and we must learn and teach our children about the individual countries of Africa as well as the issues that affect them. We also promote educating ourselves about other nations of the world and how their policies and actions affect African people in particular. It is imperative that we develop the ability to critically analyze the world, and what must be done to forge our own path to greatness.
The UAPO has lead the charge against injustice and unwarranted aggression. It's the legacy of our organization’s founders ( Zaki Baruti and Safiyah Chauvin), to speak truth to power. Whether it comes in the form of blistering articles in our Newspaper (The African NewsWorld) or by way of vigorous protest, we're committed to that legacy of speaking truth even when no one else does. We have taken bold and courageous stances against U.S. misguided foreign policy practices in Africa. We stood up in reaction to the U.S. and N.A.T.O. bombing of Libya, the assassination of President Muammar Gaddafi and the expansion of AFRICOM of which we vehemently opposed.
Freedom, justice and respect of sovereignty is what we stand for, no matter who the Goliaths may be. A courageous man standing at the gigantic feet of racial injustice once said, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." (MLK Jr.)
Our vision is to build a powerful and influential organization of at least 144,000 like minded people who accept these values in good faith. We can do it and we shall do it. For the Ancestors are our witnesses and unity is our strength and together they will carry us to our destination of greatness!
Thinking globally and acting locally, we embrace the ideology of Pan-Africanism because it encourages the solidarity of African people worldwide. It is based on the belief that unity is vital to our economic, social and political progress.
The ideology asserts that the fate of African people, regardless of dialect or distance, remains intertwined. Pan-Africanism is a belief that African peoples, both on the continent and throughout the diaspora, share not only a common ancestry, but a common destiny. With that said, huge obstacles and schisms still remain in our path. We have been intoxicated for 500 years from spirits forced-fed by way of our conquerors. Many aspects of our culture have been neutralized therefore rendering only a common thread of dependency that has sadly become the shameful culture of African humanity today. However, the ideology of Pan-Africanism stresses the need for 'Collective Self Reliance', restores dignity to our culture and re-energizes the power of the African spirit. This was the shared vision of leaders like Marcus Garvey, Kwame Nkrumah, Patrice Lumumba and Malcolm X; we are the whirlwind manifestation of that vision, reemerging to advance the work of our beloved ancestors.
An all African alliance will empower African people on a global scale. A realization of this objective would lead to a power consolidation in Africa. It would compel a re-allocation of global resources; unleashing a renaissance of economic, political and cultural energy enough to alter the balance of power in the world. An international unified African diaspora, bonded to a unified Africa, would have the clout to compete on the world stage.
In the United States of America the term (Pan-Africanism), closely associated with Afrocentrism, is an ideology of African identity politics that re-emerged alongside the civil rights movement of the 1960s and 1970s. However, the term was originally coined by Henry Sylvester-Williams back in 1900; but was said to have originated even before then with Edward Wilmot Blyden.
As a philosophy, Pan-Africanism represents an aggregation of historical, cultural, spiritual, artistic and scientific legacies from past to present. Pan-Africanism as an ethical system, also traces its origins from ancient times and promotes values that are products of African civilization and our struggle against slavery, racism, colonialism and neo-colonialism.
UAPO is committed to the idea and practice of Pan-Africanism and warmly extends an invitation for you to join us in this noble cause of restoring African people to our rightful place of power in today's world.
