"Power concedes nothing without demand. It never has and it never will."
— Frederick Douglass
 

Africa Action knows that powerful change can take place when people of conscience raise their voices for justice. We learned this in the civil rights movement and in the anti-apartheid struggle. Africa Action invites you to take effective action to build more just U.S. policies toward Africa. Please join us in three primary campaigns.


Religious communities and student organizers have traditionally played pivotal roles in changing policy. Africa Action's Religious Action Network is a powerful way for people of faith to engage with their religious communities. Africa Action's new Student Network facilitates student activism nation-wide. Please take a moment to engage with these critical Africa Action Networks.

"When spider webs unite they can entangle a lion."
