Activists in Harlem declare:
'Mugabe is right! Free the land!'
Special to Workers World
Harlem, N.Y.
The main theme of a Sept. 5 street meeting in Harlem was
defense of Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe, who has come under
a vicious, racist, pro-imperialist attack for calling for the
redistribution of the land to the indigenous masses. The
Zimbabwean government is currently in a struggle with 4,500
white farmers who occupy the most arable lands in the former
British colony.
The Friends of Zimbabwe Coalition and December 12th Movement
sponsored the street rally. Speakers included Viola Plummer,
with fist raised, from the Dec. 12 Movement, Kevin Muhammad
from the Nation of Islam, and Monica Moorehead, at mike, from
the International Action Center.
