Principles of Uhuru Foods

Uhuru Foods works in solidarity with the struggle of African people around the world for justice and liberation. Uhuru Foods stands for solidarity with red, black and green -- sustainability and self-determination for African people everywhere.

As a fundraiser for the work of the Uhuru Movement, Uhuru Foods represents solidarity not charity. Uhuru Foods is committed to the highest standards of quality, healthy foods, professionalism and respect for our base and supporters.

What We Believe

1. African people have a right to unify and liberate Africa for the benefit of African people.
2. Africa is not poor; it is being looted. Africa’s diamonds, oil and resources are the birthright of African people everywhere.
3. Africans are one people around the world dispersed through enslavement and foreign domination.
4. Inside the U.S. African people have a right to organize for economic and social justice as part of the worldwide struggle for African independence.
5. Reparations are due to African people for 500 years of stolen labor and resources that built the wealth of the U.S. and Europe.
6. The prosperity, opportunities and democracy of white people come at the expense of the enslavement of African people, the genocide of the Indigenous people and the colonial domination of oppressed peoples around the world.
7. African, Indigenous and all oppressed peoples have a right to their own land and resources free from U.S. military, economic and political control.
8. A truly progressive stand for white people is based in solidarity with the struggle of African people and oppressed peoples worldwide for justice and liberation.
9. Environmental destruction is a by-product of imperialist plunder and genocide. When African and Indigenous peoples controlled their own lands the environment was healthy; the struggle for sustainability is part of the struggle for national liberation.
10. A future of peace, unity, prosperity and environmental health for all humanity is only possible when African, Indigenous and oppressed peoples are once again free and self-determining on their own lands once again.
