and it's like i'm, i'm in this by accident because of the my father died in 1999. i moved back to the village. and when i moved back to the village where he's also buried, i realized that there's a lot of information on him. but he left including these papers, these books. and so i saw this, this is something that has to be shipped by with other companies. and there's other people who are interested in that. but let's explore the relevance of your father's legacy to the yeah, that's you of us. we tend to day. so tell us more about the work that you have been cutting out in pennsylvania before we move on to the pan african 11th. yes. as i mentioned, after he died, i moved back to the village where he was born and where he's buried. and what's the name of what you on? it's called boot camp. it's in laws, not most of the most west of an in the near lake victoria. so uh

soon after he was better does of a lot of visitors with a lot of interest to come to visit with him a lot of times when you come to visit with him as a sign of respect. yes. and the son of respect is a sign of respect to this lady. and uh, i and my sister and one of my sisters realized that we must organize these visits. so that when the visitors, a comfortable telling them these a guy who provides some information, some basic information on leaving it is history is legacy. and so that's how i got into this work of preserving his legacy. now i says i went on and that's what he has passed. i realize that the a visitor who goes through the compound and then completes the, the, to within 30 minutes is different from

a visitor who really wants to dig deep into the latest appointment. so this is what i am concentrating on right now, but we have to provide each type of visitor uh, a good experience. so that the, the satisfied with, with the information that they have requested once the visit. so it is more than just kind of shut off tourism. you would like to engage with the visitors and make him aware of how relevant julia as no risk julia snow, read his legacy to 2 days, then zeniah and, and the great clever and they're ready. he had his social philosophy of justice, of change education, health for or, and he believed in the social structure of africa. and that solutions need to be organic from within. how is this important to at times any year to date,

in terms of facing it's challenges, economic and social and, and for and, and in 10. and how could julia as new ready help? i believe those policies never run out of state that they never become relevant. the only challenge that we face is that for example, after he step down in 1995, we had the of the structural adjustment of policies which affected some of the polices that he had put in place. and gradually, you know, they were the minds to change the system from a socialist system to one which is the market driven and, and, and we know of the challenges of the market economies. they don't always

make sure that everybody is taken care of. so, so unfortunately, we, we, uh, also uh, the victims of these demands by, if these wisdom agents has to, to, to change our policies to fit the structure of the society to fit the i m f. and the world bank, julius know ready famously opposed for an age and the dependence on foreign debts and who wanted to initiate economies development from we've been with the assembly means that the african country has. he also initiated the program of land reform. i really kind of set on so most of his philosophy was based on the african concepts from within africa. and he tried to link that to an idea of an african isn't. is this relevant today when most african countries are relying on the world bank

and the i m. s, and on for in depth and for an 8. the, uh, you know, the, the, one of the basic objectives of an african music is really to unite all the african people, peoples, and peoples. the facts are gonna be sent to work together collectively to harness the resources of the african continent. to make sure that those resources to benefit the people and bring about social, economic and industrial development. so it's just the 2 unfortunately, really that uh, i think some of our countries are distracted by, by the supposed assistance that you're supposed to receive from from these other

countries. but, and i have the opinion that if someone is a country, has a leading position economically, it really will give up that position, willing, willing so, so to, to, to, to expect that those countries which holding those positions will use the advantages i think is unrealistic. so the only realistic way in which i think africans can develop themselves is to come together as a continent to put together their resources and ensure that those resources really benefit africans and not become the agents of other countries. which really uh they'll, the only interest is to to exploit that for them. and they really wasn't

just a hard if you cut them is he had a substantial spiritual and more. and if he could have side to himself personally and to his policies, he was a christian. and he wanted to build an african philosophy of ethics through he's a social change built on morality on the african family, on the cohesion of society. and he as took a to this in his writings and his speeches does the sides of his personality and his work. does it resonate 2 to 2 days, africa, and 2 days younger generation? as i said in my opening statement, we, we have a problem of being over whelmed, the younger generation being over whelmed by the values and the information from how the site is from outside of out from outside of actually consult the this is

a problem. we risk losing those values, those to humanitarian values, those values of justice that we had in the past. if we don't make a big effort to um, to show that there is an alternative way to how we organize our societies. so this is why i think it's really important that we take on the task of a off showing these young people that they are more alternative. so how we organize society then the ones that you conceptually receive through social media and through of the avenues of information. and your father wasn't alone figure out he was part of a globe, but south movement for liberation and change that extended from latin america to

africa. to the south of asia. how does this help understand the big picture for the younger generation of, as in the nations of africans? so for example, africans are inspired by such triggers like nice sort of egypt or mendham, a lot of south africa or little number of the congo. and does he, your father become part of this kind of big chunk of liberation, image of change that comes from within. do you think he contributes to this general picture? i think i think he does. he's he, he's of that generation of the sixties and seventies of lead us with the type of fetus but to mention. and he played an important role. i think together with his colleagues in creating an environment that

also reflected the prevailing conditions within those countries which were promoting these with this uh system. so uh he remains relevant because uh, as i mentioned, we the only way that we can uh, uh, address challenges is really to look in what to look in with lots to expect someone from, from outside to come and solve the challenges that we had. and these, the lead of the 5th generation of, i think where leaders, who with determining policy is based on the prevailing conditions in their own countries. i mean bill and regions. so i think it's really relevant to, uh, it was relevant then and it still is relevant even though is it normal for someone

who works so hard for decades to advance their own nation to make mistakes. mistakes wouldn't made on the economic 11 social level, possibly come shut on 11. do you think it's ok for the new generations of africans to dig deep into this legacy in the positive way that you wish for, but to also be critical of the mistakes? correct them? not to repeat them unless the lessons from then? i think let me tell you when, when we got to independence in 1961, one year later, my father wrote a small booklet called uh, could you say you can say here? it's could you say he's, but i'll explain what the contents of the book because i don't have a beautiful language. so i hate the fear that i don't have an in direct translation to english. and in that book, he sees a lead of

a lot insoluble. they make mistakes. so it's not a problem to make a mistake. it's a problem not to admit that you have made a mistake. so it says, when would you interact with young africans nowadays? you who would have a dialogue with you and who would discuss these mistakes and would analyze these mistakes most definitely most definitely because as i said to humans, humans are born to make mistakes. and just because someone is the president are pregnant, and sco administer. doesn't mean that they cannot make arrows in decisions in policy, and i mean either the level to feed us. so we, we have to be but he doesn't keep you in that book. he doesn't speak just about the leaders. he also tells the people that you also have the

responsibility to tell your leader that they have made a mistake because you might be, uh, you might be, for example, someone who we supporting are particularly to but you don't want to tell exactly the but they're making a certain mistake and, and by keeping quiet, you're really not allowing the food spec title society to be part of that the process of, uh, sharing ideas and allowing, allowing the best possible ideas to come forward and help develop. and now you are working with other defendants of africa's great leaders to establish this forum called african legacy, which extends the whole continent. tell us a bit about this for them, which is,

and the creation isn't it? so what is the idea behind that? what are you trying to achieve? well, uh the idea is that, um, as, as we look back at history and at the founding fathers are funding leaders. we know very important lessons that we can carry forward to the next generation. so you may not show, we're trying to link the past with the present and the future i, you tend to be teachers or engage in a dialogue, a 2 way dialogue with young africans. i'm concerned about this, whether you are doing it the old fashioned way of just teaching without listening, or whether you are prepared to engage in a genuine dialogue with the younger generations of africans who of course have new

ideas. and they are influenced by different sources of information as yourself mentioned, it should be at dialogue because we know certainly we have certain information within the past from history that they don't have. they have some new ideas which we might we, we may be too old to, to address. so it has to be an island. because uh, as, as the, as my father pointed out to some of his uh, policies, especially on medication. he said uh the, the, the important task of adults, one of the important to us to find out is to provide an education to the generation so that they have the necessary skills to become leaders of the future. so when i

speak of education, i don't mean impose an education on the image of the nation, but i mean to have that dialogue that you mentioned so that you, you, together, we create the future that's beneficial to both the current and, and the future generation. but today we are here in the beautiful city of st. petersburg, 2 days before the russian african summit in the international on the international stage, africa. and you know, in gauges with all parties and the south africa, for example, a leading, i think a nation is bought as part of the bricks group can afford to engage in that peaceful, productive, and fruitful relationship with countries from the global south such as india, brazil, china and with an international power lakresha, wideman painting,

it's independence and maintaining a it's a presence as a force for goods and for peace and the warm you know, awesome. i saw the step down in 1985. he became a pig. she was given the task by the lighting movement to lead the soul's commission, which was an organization or a uh, let's say a commission task with studying the economies of the what became to be low. now is southern countries, the southern countries study, the economies look at the challenges and so just solutions to, to, to problems are funded development. so the, the, the basic, one of the basic conclusions that came out of federal report which was released after they completed the work was the solvent countries have to work together.

because the battery is that a place to buy the northern countries to, uh, uh, development cannot be some mountain without having a strong base of countries that begin to pose some muscle. they begin to create some economic bustle against the moving companies. so the, the, the, the suggestion that the, the question that you're asking is really, um, so i think that's the only way to go. in addition to you, i mentioned also the, the, the importance of africa coming together. so then also africa working together with, with the, with the rising economies. yes, that's right. that would provide a freak out with alternative ways of funding. it's developmental projects and

helping get support is he can cohesion as one content. and that's, that's right. because as i mentioned, the, the hold that the most and countries have on the global global economy. it's not something that they will leave people willing monopoly is hard to give up. yeah. you have to, it's very profitable. yes. yes. so you have to fight for it. and the only way you can fight where it is united, as you might. yeah. as, as an offer to the current and as the global. so what is your message pass and the heartfelt message to young africans incomes any uh, i'm in the corner of the content. if you are listening to you or i know away from the full and the language of politics from heart to heart, what would you say? i, i, i would say 1st, it's really important to know history that's,

that's really important. the victimization only of resistance as well. all the history which is relevant to, to our, to our continents. i'll tell you why, because if you don't do that, if you don't familiar with history, then it's really difficult to the 1st to uh to pick out the 6 success stories they may see what's out to the several, many, many success stories in african these. but then if you, if you do not, if you're not a student of history, and i don't mean this academically, just the someone who's interested in me and then you tend to be the victim of, of a societies which will provide an alternative that does not show that there are many possibilities within the african continent. and once you

realize that, then you know that the few states right without now, if you concentrate on, on receiving information that size away from, from pinpointing the success stories of african in, in, within african history. the venue you really a little time to see how missing the weapons with which you can face the future. so for example, the, you know, the, the, the fact that africa managed to liberate itself between the early sixties and, and the mid eighties. i think that's a really important to achievement, which is which, which, which then generations maybe don't say that they don't, i don't realize they don't realize the shed the histories that we have for the african continent that people, uh, the lead us, you know, julia, the in the in egypt also contributed towards the,

the liberation of absolutely figures like nice sort of egypt and then ben and others. it helps their brothers and sisters and this house of the continent and the fight for, for independence. yeah. so it's really important to, to, to know the history, to know the share the history. because with a shared history, then you realize that all the, we are not just east africans, you know, just depends on the logistics tenants. we have africans, parcel for the biggest story. yeah. the story is much larger than then, then then what you imagine. so, so, so with that, a shared history. i think it's, it's uh possible for a young person in any african country to imagine a bright future to imagine the future with they can make a difference in their own development and in the countries development. and in the, in their content content. people, what as a generalist,

i'm going to watch very closely what you are going to achieve in the future, and whether you practice, whether you, what, what you beach, in connecting with the younger generations of africans. you know, most of them exist on the take talk and social media. so probably you'll need to go there as well, to talk to them and engage with them and listen to them. i will do that. that was a pleasure. me. thank you, brother. i'm not that i got sick. thank you so much. thank you for you to fight and thank you. thank you very much. this was an interview with my dad, aka, and they're ready, the son of the great times any and leave the julius know ready discussing the legacy of river elf. liberation of the continents and its relevance to today's politics. cannot thank the the

the the,

the ability to think of it but so we know what to keep this key but, and what i'm looking for that. yeah, cuz i don't mind what they've done. they throw a bold over you well, but i'm sure, but i don't know if they've gone there's a possibility of the storm or one, but at the end of the class, i think most public enough for me to send them. yeah, i'm sure it's not that you of the doors. let's

be doing telephone. go to the breaks on the correct the mobile number. it's all the different. the 1937 militaristic. japan started a full scale invasion of china. the invading army was rapidly advancing towards the capital of the republic of china, of the dies, the city of now z, leaving behind the burned down villages and thousands of the dead. on december 13th, the japanese occupied time, z and states the real massacre. for 6 weeks, the invaders exterminated the civilian population. they carried out mass executions,
