About Us
Founded in 2024, the Pan-African Revolutionary Study Group is a collective committed to advancing political education through the study of Pan-African thought, Black liberation movements, and revolutionary history.
We create spaces for critical dialogue, collective learning, and historical inquiry, empowering our community to better understand the past, engage with the present, and imagine a more liberated future.
