Convention
Join the growing movement: Solidarity with African, Indigenous, Palestinian and oppressed peoples!
The Uhuru Solidarity Movement (USM) announces our annual national convention, “White Solidarity with Black Power,” to be held on Saturday and Sunday, March 15-16, 2025 in St. Louis, Missouri! Under the leadership of the African People’s Socialist Party, USM organizes in the white community for reparations to African people and solidarity with African Liberation.
The movement of white people in solidarity with Black Power is growing throughout the world! Millions of white people are looking for the way to take action and refuse to be complicit with the atrocities being carried out by the U.S. government every single day in our name. Our stance against colonialism and genocide begins right here, inside the belly of the beast: Solidarity with African people, who have always been the drivers of progressive change!
Featuring powerful workshops and presentations:
Keynote presentations by Chairman Omali Yeshitela, founder and leader of the Uhuru Movement, and Penny Hess, Chair of the African People’s Solidarity Committee.
Report-back from the front-lines of the historic trial, victory of the Uhuru 3 and the way forward for the anti-colonial free speech movement!
No more genocide in our name - from North St. Louis to Occupied Palestine!
Colonialism caused climate change: Catastrophic weather, fires and floods caused by the system of plunder, rape and pillage.
Building the Reparations Legacy Project: Reparations as a revolutionary demand!
How to build a branch of USM in your community or campus.
Black Power Blueprint: Concrete political-economic programs that are negating colonialism and building the independent, anti-colonial African economy.
