Educating youth about the Pan-African flag ensures its legacy. Learn how to inspire future generations.

Educating the next generation about the red, black and green Pan-African flag and its significance is crucial for preserving its legacy. Schools and community programs can teach children about Marcus Garvey, the flag’s history, and the principles of Pan-Africanism. By understanding their heritage, young people can continue the work of unity and empowerment.
