Justice for Walter Rodney
We seek your urgent support for our campaign to salvage some justice for this distinguished historian, scholar-activist and author of How Europe Underdeveloped Africa. It is crucial to raise the profile of the Walter Rodney Commission of Inquiry into Rodney's assassination as the last chance to secure vital historic records- before its too late, and remind the Guyana government that Rodney's legacy matters, beyond Guyana.
Requesting your Prompt Action
The new Guyana government continues to efface the work of this Commission of Inquiry into Rodney's assassination by denying the two more weeks it requested to properly complete its work. They seek to frustrate the proper completion of any real inquiry, 35 years on, while more key witnesses die, records disappear, evidence degrades. And we forget.
We'd also be grateful if you could urgently circulate to colleagues, academics, students and social justice contacts.
Thank you,
Anne Braithwaite
