Rashid Akbar, Our Special Guest On RBN: One Family, One Movement, Freedom For All!
Chicago Birth of AFTF Slogan/Motto
On Saturday, September 23rd 2006, Aaron Russo, AFTF volunteers and members of the Lone Lantern Society (LLS) met at the LLS meeting in a Lincoln Park coffee shop where this motto was formally reiterated for the second time in public:
ONE FAMILY....ONE MOVEMENT....FREEDOM FOR ALL!!
The birth of this slogan can be credited to "Ja Far" and his partner Rashid Akbar who are the organizers of the ICE Theatre screening of AFTF here in Chicago.
Here's the video clip.... Please repeat after Rashid, Aaron and Ja Far:
ONE FAMILY. ONE MOVEMENT. FREEDOM FOR ALL!!
The original feeling behind this slogan came from deep within the heart of the black community here in Chicago. The first public utterance of this slogan came at the private meeting Aaron had on Friday, 9/22, with some of the leading ministers and pastors - including one of the most famous Catholic priests in the world - in the black community here in Chicago. The organizers of this meeting even made a cake for Aaron to show their sincere gratitude for what he has done in bring the truth about modern slavery back into the public consciousness of our world.
ONE FAMILY. ONE MOVEMENT. FREEDOM FOR ALL!!
