The Africa History Month Ireland is kicking off with a great event
this year 2014 and we want everyone to support us in celebrating Africans
Presence here in Ireland. The Recognition of the role of Africans in Ireland to
celebrate "Africa History Month" Initiated here in Ireland since 2010
by Susuana O.M Olatunji-Komolafe in recognition of the contribution of all
Africans that has lived or still living in the Republic of Ireland, which have
played a positive role and make an impact in the society. As Africans we share
history with Africans Americans, African British living here and back home as
they also celebrate. To allow youth, children and young generation understand
the beauty of their roots and staying strong in addressing the opportunities
and challenges of being a minority in Ireland.
Big thanks to my board, friends, supporters, funders and
everyone that believes in the vision.
"I have a
vision. It is a vision deeply rooted in the Africa culture. I have a vision
that one day in the Africa culture all over the world and throughout the
universe that the sons of former slaves, Freed Blacks, and native Africans will
be proud of their culture and we'll be able to live together as brothers and
sisters. I have a vision that one day in African culture, the cultural science
of “Blacology” will become real and Africa culture will roll down like waters
and our history like a mighty stream"
