The All-African People’s Revolutionary Party (A-APRP) Legacy Award is given to our organizers who have given a lifetime in service to building the A-APRP and global Pan-African struggles. We thank them for past and continued selfless work and sacrifice. They are the true cadre who inspire us and generations to come.
