I sit on the National Central Committee of the African People’s Socialist Party (APSP) as the Deputy Chair, so I lead and direct all the Party’s economic development in Florida, Philadelphia, California, Alabama, St. Louis. We are also building right now in Occupied Azania and Ghana, as well. 

The rot of the neocolonial government and its traitors in Congo is so deep that nothing short of the complete liberation and unification of Africa under the leadership of the African working class can change the situation for our people there.

Dead on arrival—body after body flooding a local morgue in Hayward, CA, just outside of Oakland. These recent deaths at a convalescent home are attributed to the Coronavirus also known as the colonialvirus as it affects the poor, the vulnerable and colonized communities disproportionately to that of whites, the colonizer community.

During the current lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, African workers are scrambling to feed our children, pay our rent or mortgage or cover any medical expenses.

The statistics are staggering. African people are dying in striking numbers and the only thing the bourgeoisie can do is stuff billions of dollars into the coffers of large corporations.

While many are coming to terms with the fact that as Africans we are not immune to the colonialvirus called COVID-19, the South African neocolonial government is forced to explain the reason why majority of black people are failing to adhere to the precautions and regulations it has set out for the public in response to what they have declared a global pandemic.

“Nicola was so dedicated. She’s going to live on through all of us, who knew her, who love her and were able to share memories with her. She transitioned as a dedicated mother and revolutionary on Saturday, April 4, 2020, fighting for our people & I'm sure she wouldn’t have wanted to transition any other way.”

Gauteng Province, South Africa—As COVID-19 spreads throughout the world, with numbers skyrocketing in many countries daily, the African People’s Socialist Party’s comrades on the ground in Occupied Azania recognize that the struggle we are waging against our colonial enemies is taking place in a fast-changing world where events change overnight. 

Editor's Note: The African People's Socialist Party salutes Unión del Barrio, headquartered in San Diego, CA, leading the liberation movement of the Mexican/Indigenous people. Unión del Barrio has worked together as a sister organization of the Party for over 30 years. Our Party recognizes the unity of African and Mexican people in the struggle to liberate the stolen lands of the Americas which belong to the Indigenous people on both sides of these imperialist-imposed borders. The following article is from the Unión del Barrio website addressing the colonial COVID-19 virus as it genocidally sweeps through the Mexican communities and the concentration camps full of Indigenous people attempting to cross into their own lands.
