Soweto @ 50: The Legacy of 1976, Past & Present
Jul 26, 2026 · Sankofa Video, Books & Cafe, 2714 Georgia Ave NW, Washington, DC 20001 · Washington, DC
About this event
Part 2 of Sankofa's Soweto @ 50 series, in collaboration with the Africa World Now Project — Dr. Sylvia Hill, Dr. Greg Carr, and Twiggs Xiphu on the legacy of the 1976 uprising for movements today.
Why we picked it
Sylvia Hill was a leader of the DC-anchored Free South Africa Movement — hearing her mark 50 years since Soweto in the room where the diaspora movement organized is a rare thing.
Good for
students, pan-Africanists, movement organizers
