Pambazuka News
Through the voices of the peoples of Africa and the global South, Pambazuka Press and Pambazuka News disseminate analysis and debate on the struggle for freedom and justice.
Fahamu publishes the weekly electronic news and information forum for social justice in Africa, Pambazuka News. With a readership of 500,000, Pambazuka News is produced by a pan-African community of over 1,000 citizens - academics, social activists, women's organisations, writers, artists, poets, bloggers, and commentators - who together produce insightful and thoughtful analyses that make it the most innovative and influential sites for social justice in Africa.
Pambazuka News has, in the short time of its existence, carved a niche
for itself as an important forum where Africans talk frankly among
themselves and reflect on the condition of their continent and its
place in the new global order. For far too long Africa and Africans
were pushed to the margin of global discourse. Others spoke for them,
very often misrepresenting and distorting the reality to suit their own
interests. No longer, and this is thanks to Pambazuka and its team of
writers, analysts and editors. -Dr Ike Okonta, Department of Politics, University of Oxford
