Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images Africa Day was first marked over six decades ago. SA s freedom from colonialism and apartheid was one of the key drivers of African unity. This year s theme looks at the importance of culture, heritage and language. Each year, the African Union (AU) commemorates International Africa Day on 25 May. It is usually marked by festivals, concerts and speeches. But, beyond the colourful festivities, what s the point? In South Africa, the day is a reminder of the country s relationship with the continent from which it was largely cut off during the apartheid era. President Cyril Ramaphosa s letter this week is a reminder of the cooperative role South Africa can play, and the benefits it stands to reap from platforms like the Continental Free Trade Area, which is a single market for goods and services to move across countries in a similar structure to the European Union.
