"All-African People's Conference: Resolution on Imperialism and Colonialism (1958)
This site contains the full-text of a resolution adopted by the All-African People's Conference December 5-13, Accra 1958. This was a major political conference with over 300 delegates from all regions of Africa. The resolution condemns European colonial and imperial policy in Africa. It then demands political independence and an end to the economic hardship and human rights abuses perpetuated in the empires and colonies of the region. Other features are the implementation of specific human rights for all Africans, including universal suffrage, and support for groups who have to resort to violence to attain independence in so far as this is viewed as a final measure. The document is taken from the All-African Peoples Conference News Bulletin vol.1, no.4 1959, pp1-2. It isa published on the Internet as part of the Internet Modern History Sourcebook maintained by Fordham University. "
