WORLD WIDE AFRICA THE VOICE OF THE PAN AFRICAN MOVEMENT

"Africa and Asian leaders also questioned the feasibility of nonviolence in the face of such barbaric violence by whites.  On October 12, Tom Mboya of Kenya condemned the Kennedy administration for "taking a too cautious" approach to America's racial problems.   "This is and issue,"  Mboya said angrily, "on which no compromise can possibly be explained. Negro freedom is part of our freedom struggle to give dignity to the colored man wherever he is."  Melie Ajuluchuku, director of the Nigerian National Press, suggested in an interview with Muhammad Speaks that perhaps it was time for Africans to join in the civil rights movement.  After all, he said, his countrymen "regard the Negroes of America as our brothers and sisters...... Our view in Nigeria as all Africa, is that this movement should be supported without compromise."
