South Africa: The EFF Salutes the Father of Black Consciousness Movement - Biko Lives

press release

The Economic Freedom Fighters salutes and remembers the 12th September as the day of Steven Biko. The EFF marks the 37th Anniversary of the brutal murder of Biko by the murderous apartheid regime. This regime, however, could never kill Biko's idea of black consciousness and its popular impact and reverberation domestically and internationally.

Black consciousness is a mission of black liberation which seeks to highlight the situation of black people to themselves. Its starting point is to make the black child aware that she is oppressed and thus call her to action against a system that uses the colour of her skin as a means of oppression.
