Our final show of the year was specially pre-recorded and we look back on the past twelve months of Afrika Speaks, reliving some of the most compelling shows with a wealth of guests that brought overstanding and insight to any subject we covered. These included the continuing assault on Ayiti (Haiti), effecting food security, analysing the conflict in Sudan, the fight for land sovereignty in Barbuda, the UK’s war on Afrikan women and the purported genocide Gaza. Clips of these and more will be replayed in the show.

(The Farewell Statement)
Strive for discipline, dedication and achievement in all you do.
Dare to struggle and sacrifice and gain the strength that comes from this.
Build where you are and dare to leave a legacy that will last as long as the sun shines and the water flows.
Practice the Nguzo Saba, daily!
UMOJA, Unity
KUJICHAGULIA, Self-Determination
UJIMA, Collective Work & Responsibility
UJAMAA, Cooperative Economics
NIA, Purpose
KUUMBA, Creativity
And may the wisdom of the ancestors always walk with us.
May the year’s end meet us laughing and stronger.
May our children honor us by following our example in love and struggle.
And at the end of next year, may we sit again together, in larger numbers, with greater achievement and closer to liberation and a higher level of human life.
HARAMBEE! (Let’s pull together!)
