Exciting news!! We want to spread the word of our upcoming young workers conference 31st of January 2024. We would like to invite all young workers who wish to come and have the opportunity to take part in a proper conference style debate.

We have motions that have been put forward by our YW committee. And we welcome anyone to put forward their own motions for conference to be put up for debate. If you need help with any of this then you can contact us or speak with your branch secretary.

We understand that some may never have experienced this before, so why not make this one your first. If you have been before we would like to welcome you back.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Although this is relevant for black history month. It also stands as a message for us all that seek to better ourselves and make money. Making money is fine. But let's remember where we came from and what we were fighting for that got us there. Let's not forget about the struggles when we make it because we have made it. If we teach our children to forever be humble and respect the process then they forever prosper.

Amazing perspective of black history. It is true w

Amazing perspective of black history. It is true we often focus on the negative impacts of the slave trade, and the real life struggles facing black people today. But we should all shift our focus, maybe not fully but at least as an additional method. It is true that black people have achieved great things that often go unheard of. After all Africa is the birthplace of the human race. So really we all share that history and be a part of the fruits that have sown from a great continent.

Nelson Mandela known for many things. First he was

Nelson Mandela known for many things. First he was known as a terrorist for standing up against the awful apartheid racist regime in South Africa. The blacks were not allowed to express freedom or any right.

He became a prisoner. Served his time. Learnt to speak the enemy tongue , Afrikaans, And rose from the ashes to tell one of the most fulfilling and heart felt come back stories of all time. He fought back with knowledge and democracy. And successfully leading the resistance to end the apartheid. To go on and become president of South Africa uniting the races of the rainbow nation during his tenure.
A true legend and black hero known world wide. A legend who has brought faith and hope to millions if people worldwide who want and equal world.
