2025 marks the centenary of the birth of Three Pan-Afrikan freedomfighers: Malcolm X, Patrice Lumumba and Frantz Fanon.

Together we will learn about the ongoing disrepair of the heart of the Afrikan continent, the Congo, and how communities are continuing unfinished liberation struggles across the continent, hearing directly from the PARJCCLA Coalition of communities in the Sahel and the continent of Africa.

This event will launch a Glocal Planet Repairs Noticeboard at the PRSC which will facilitate solidarity between the local community in Stokes Croft and communities in the Global South through the Toega Internationalist Solidarity Centre in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.

Organised in partnership with the PRSC School of Activism. We are mobilising support for the PRALER Fund, and collecting resources to support Global South Communities: www.praler.net/praler-fund

Food will be provided on a pay-what-you-can basis. Bring musical instruments to jam with.
