Mamadou Lumumba and Shango Umoja

January 1973: Mamadou Lumumba and Shango Umoja deported from Guyana to USA. The PNC Administration stated the reason for deporting Mamadou Lumumba and Shango Umoja were their association with the activities of African Society for Cultural Relations with Independent Africa (ASCRIA) in Guyana.

Eusi Kwayana in Black Scholar May-August 1973.

Please Note:
Mamadou Lumumba and Shango Umoja were two of my instructor at Golden Grove Government Secondary School, located in Golden Grove Village, on the East Sea Coast of Demerara in Guyana. They taught me while I was student in the First and Second Forms of the institution. That was the beginning of my self-realization that before I became Guianese I was; I am indigenous to the so-called “African” Continent.
