Half a century after victorious struggles against direct colonial rule, most of Africa remains mired in deepening poverty and violence. The last two decades of neo-liberal economic reforms have only further consolidated the domination of multi-national corporations. But under the surface, a resistance to capitalist exploitation persists. The Nigerian Democratic Socialist Movement, which has helped lead seven general strikes in the last decade, has provided a growing voice for socialist change. Come join this important discussion.
