Black Power Revolution 1970 – a cry for people power, unity
EMBAU MOHENI
Servant President of NJAC
TODAY, April 21, marks the 51st anniversary of the declaration of the first State of Emergency (SOE) during the Trinidad and Tobago Revolution of 1970.
This revolution, also referred to as the Black Power Revolution of 1970 was led by the National Joint Action Committee (NJAC), under the visionary leadership of the late chief servant Makandal Daaga (then Geddes Granger), for a new and just society in TT.
The events of this day were preceded by a series of mass demonstrations which included the well-known March to Caroni on March 12, 1970, when thousands of people from the urban communities in north Trinidad marched to central Trinidad in solidarity with their East Indian brothers and sisters.
