The 5th Congress of the African People’s Socialist Party broke new ground with the adoption of the new Constitution with broad changes to the Party and its structure, including the Party’s name, which is now the African People’s Socialist Party-USA.

The following excerpts are just a small sampling of the many salutations and greetings that came from revolutionary forces from around the world to the 5th Congress of the African People’s Socialist Party.

The African Socialist International (ASI) strongly condemns the heinous murder of 47-year-old Floribert Chebeya Bahizire - an activist known and respected throughout the Congo for his opposition to the disastrous human rights in Congo - and his driver Fidele Bazana, whose body is still not found. Chebeya and Bazana were assassinated by the repressive regime of President Joseph Kabange Kabila and Police Chief, John Numbi. This double murder occurred on the night of the June 1, 2010 in Kinshasa, Congo.

On Thursday, July 22, 2010 the police in London, England in the African community of Brixton, in broad daylight raided the Mosque of the Nation Of Islam. The international counter-insurgency of white power has used the decades old "war on drugs" as an excuse to wipe out and attack any notion of African people struggling for self-determination. This is the excuse, a search for a "marijuana farm", the police used in this attack on the NOI in Brixton in an attempt to criminalize any organizational effort for black freedom. The African Socialist International Stands in Solidarity with the Nation of Islam to fend off these attacks by the criminal British government who along with the U.S. Government sees virtually the entire Islamic world as "terrorist." But the U.S. and Britain are the real terrorist. HANDS OFF!! NOI-BRITAIN!

History was made at the 5th Congress of the African People’s Socialist Party held in Washington, DC, July 10-14, 2010.

According to syndicated columnist Leonard Pitts Jr, and the Department of Health and Human Services, “9.5 percent of blacks (about 3.6 million people) and 8.2 percent of whites (about 16 million people) reported using some form of illicit drug in the previous month. Yet, though there are more than four times as many white drug users as black ones, blacks represent better than half those in state prison on drug charges.”
