NDABA V  Reparations Conference Opening Session
Clark Atlanta University - March 19th 2005

The Reparations Movement, spearheaded by Dr. Conrad Worrill, chairman of the National Black United Front, and the National Coalition of Blacks for Reparations in America (N’COBRA), came to Clark Atlanta University for the NDABA V, a South African word meaning “a great sitting down.”

This meeting was a coming together of local and national organizations to assess where the movement was and where they were headed. The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan gave the keynote address at the opening plenary session which brought together students and organizational leaders of all ideological streams of the Black liberation movement.

Minister Farrakhan pointed out that a high level of operational unity is needed between leaders and organizations, as well as a high level of accountability for those who claim leadership of the reparations movement.
