We celebrated the 121 Years of this great day in Kara Heritage Institute on 27 February,2017 in Pretoria South Africa with children of ages 7 and 8 doing remarkably Kerereto, Fukera and Shilela and Kesis Dr. Ashenafi presenting on the 80th Anniversary of the Yekatit 12 Italian Massacre bringing in the history of the role played by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church , Ato Kidane Alemayehu presenting why Italy must pay reparation, abolish Graziani the butcher's statue and the Vatican must aplogise for blessing the weapons to kill Ethiopians as"holy, holy and holy". Professor Mathole Motshekga presented on the contributions of Africa to science and civilisation. I presented on Adwa Victory and Ethiopianism and a number of our South African brothers and sisters presented on the Africa History Month powerfully explaining why there should not be any attacks against other Africans by Africans at all anywhere. We must all learn from Adwa Victory to learn to trust each other and never fight with each other. Adwa Victory made Africans victors and not victims(Thabo Mbeki). We must learn this history not just for the sake of knowing what happened, but to learn Adwa Victory still lives on until Africa is fully liberated and united...

The 121 Years of The Great African Victory-Yekatit 23,2009 (Eth. Calendar) or (March 1, 2017) Gregorian calendar
This
special issue of Ee-JRIF is dedicated to Prof. Richard Pankhurst who
has devoted all his life like his mother Sylvia Pankhurst to Ethiopia.
Ee-JRIF has published very well researched papers written both in
English and Amharic.
All Africans should learn and know about how special is today of Yekatit 23, 2009(Eth. Calendar)
Sincere
appreciation to the compatriot authors who contributed by spending
their time and energy writing on the great Africa Adwa Victory.
We
believe that The Adwa Pan-African University and a global African
heritage site should be established in Adwa with statues of all that
fought in the war including St. George by creating an education park,
history, museum and university.
Please read this issue of Ee-JRIF and share with all your networks
We
would like more papers to be contributed to be able this year to
publish the edited book we have planned to produce at the 120 years
anniversary last year.
Please contribute in English and Amharic.
Wishing you all the best Adwa Victory Yekatit 23, 2009 day!
