[HIGHLIGHTS] The African American Federation...an organization founded by Malcolm X to confront racism in America

The Organization of African American Unity was founded on June 28, 1964, in Harlem, New York. It sought to unite 22 million African Americans with the peoples of the African continent.

It developed a program that focused on ways to advance the interests of black Americans. The organization targeted all people of African descent in America and Africa in America. It was not just an organization to unite the efforts of Africans in the United States, but also the leader of the world. It is now known as the African Union.
