Professor Horace G. Campbell will be speaking at ArtRage on “The Quagmire of U.S. Militarism in Africa.”

After its years-long failed campaign to help prop up South African apartheid, U.S. white supremacists have intensified their efforts to colonize Africa. To do so, despite the African people’s resistance, the U.S. governments now has established the Africa command in the context of the so-called “War on Terror. “

AFRICOM , its Africa Command, is spending billions on information and psychological warfare, and deploying social scientists, private military contractors, as well as ‘humanitarian’ workers to destabilize and destroy Africa. Prof. Campbell argues that the U.S peace movement must not standby as our tax money is being spent to restore white supremacy on this resource-rich continent.
