The Kwame Ture Memorial Lecture Series
A critical forerunner to the Emancipation celebrations. The lecture series is named after prominent civil rights activist, Kwame Ture, whose lifelong desire was the edification and empowerment of all African people. Using compelling lectures, presentations, youth panels and video, the lecture series attempts to perpetuate Ture’s legacy – building the awareness, consciousness and intellect of African peoples to better control their destiny and their social and economic well-being. Guest lecturers are well known activists, academics and political/business leaders from Trinidad and Tobago and around the world. The free lectures run for eight weeks leading up to Emancipation and culminate with the Forum on Africa and the Diaspora.
