Kwame Nkrumah’s address at the Conference of African Freedom Fighters in Accra, held in 1958, was a historic call for unity and collective action against colonial rule. Nkrumah emphasized the importance of solidarity among African nations in the fight for independence and liberation from European powers. He argued that political freedom must be coupled with economic independence, urging for the establishment of a united front to support freedom fighters across the continent. His speech was a key moment in rallying African leaders towards the vision of a unified, self-determined Africa.
