Breaking: Africans make up 50 percent of new COVID-19 cases in Philadelphia, colonialism is to blame!

April 4, 2020—As the COVID-19 pandemic sweeps the country, our colonized African working class communities throughout the U.S. are being ravaged by illness and death from the virus at a much higher rate than any other community.

This article appeared Friday in The Philadelphia Inquirer with the headline, “At first most Philly coronavirus cases were white. New cases are primarily African.”

Fifty percent of new cases are now in the African community there and similar conditions are being reported everywhere we are located in the U.S. This is why the African People’s Socialist Party calls this the colonialvirus.

The only solution for African people wherever we have been dispersed around the world is political, economic and medical power over our own lives.

The African People’s Socialist Party has launched The People’s War Campaign with the Black Ankh Project as our own African emergency response team to meet the needs of our own African community.
