Contents: Vietnam and Africa • Perspectives on Pan-African • AFRICAN LIBERATION DAY • LETTER TO THE EDITOR African-American Relations with African Liberation Movements • PEOPLE IN THE NEWS Mwinyi Aboud Jumbe • NEWS BRIEFS • KWAME NKRUMAH • END APARTHEID SLAVERY • Review of Fifty Fighting Years: The Communist Party of South Africa (1921-1971) by A. Leruma • The newsletter says the stepped-up aggression by U.S. imperialists and their puppet Saigon troops will be defeated by the patriotic troops in Vietnam. All Afro-Americans and other oppressed people in the U.S. must protest this aggression. African-Americans have played an important role in developing the Pan-African movement; the article discusses the role of W.E.B. DuBois in this movement. The United Nations Committee on Decolonization visited the liberated areas in Guinea (Bissau) at the invitation of the Party of Independence of Guinea and the Cape Verde Islands (PAIGC) in April. The Southern African Relief Fund in Athens, Ohio is collecting money to buy medical supplies, educational materials, clothing, and food to help African liberation fighters and victims of racism and oppression. On April 28, 20 members of the African American Solidarity Committee distributed 1000 leaflets outside Continental Illinois Bank condemning the bank for its recent loan of $48 million to the South African Railways Department.
