Africa Memorial Day (AMD) 25 - 05 - 25
THEME: Historical Consciousness and Human Justice
Historical consciousness refers to an awareness and understanding of the
past, particularly the historical events, structures, and narratives that have shaped societies, cultures, and identities. It is a critical reflection on history and its implications for the present and future. When this consciousness is linked to human
justice, it drives a deeper recognition of injustices, inequalities, and struggles for freedom and equality that have occurred over time. This understanding helps shape the
pursuit of justice today.
Our Vision for the next 5 years
Africa Memorial Day aims to become a continent - wide celebration of African Heritage, uniting Africans through Education, Cultural showcases and remembrance.Over the next five years, AMD plans to engage over 10,000 people annually through expanded events, interactive educational programs, and partnerships across Africa and the diaspora. These collaborations will ensure that Africa Memorial Day becomes a recognized public holiday in multiple countries and a focal point for cultural diplomacy. Key initiatives include a scholarship fund, mentorship programs, and promoting cultural innovation.
Goal
The goal of the celebration is to recall and educate most Africans about the historical and cultural unity of Africa and thus bring alive in the mind of Africans the historical events (living and active memory) of our heroes and heroines, our African ancestors.
Introduction
The Africa Memorial Day (AMD) is a day the Correct Connect Africa Foundation (CCAF) and other Africans, those in the continent and the diaspora, commemorate and celebrate the memory of their African ancestors. Its objective is to honor both named as well as other millions of Africans killed, assassinated, and martyred in the struggle to defend their ancestral land, people, culture, identity, dignity, and freedom. It is the remembrance of our African heroes and heroines who fought for liberation and independence. It is the memory of our ancestors, coerced into slavery yet never giving up the fight for freedom. At this event, we celebrate them, evoking individual and collective consciousness for us all to learn from our past, stimulating a bold and selfless commitment to engage critically and creatively with our present, and constructing a respectable future and dignity-affirming for Africa and her children.
