DESCRIPTION:The African People's Solidarity Day Committee will hold a press conference 
 and rally outside of Tiffany & Co. on Union Square as part of a National 
 Day of Action Against the Diamond Trade. This is one of a several rallies 
 taking place nationwide to educate the public about the violence and 
 oppression intrinsic to the diamond industry. \n\nThe concept of "blood" or 
 "conflict" diamonds has been promoted by the DeBeers cartel in response to 
 threats to its monopoly on the diamond supply; but since the late 19th 
 century, when British colonist Cecil Rhodes founded DeBeers Consolidated 
 Mines in southern Africa, the impoverishment, oppression, slaughter, and / 
 or enslavement of Africans perpetuated by DeBeers itself has enriched 
 whites via Africa's stolen resources. \n\nAPSDC consists of whites who seek 
 a principled relationship with Africans wherever they live or have been 
 dispersed, working under the African leadership of the Uhuru Movement to 
 support the global African struggle for political and economic 
 self-determination, reparations, justice and unity. \n\n\n\n\n
