From the author: The liberation of oppressed people is a global struggle as liberation movements echo one another in proclaiming rights of equality, freedom and liberty inherent to all human beings. The marginalized constituents respond to oppression by donning the armor of struggle to wrest free from the chains of oppression and racism and/or white supremacy. The Black Consciousness Movement headed by Steve Biko, and the Dalit Panther Movement modeled after the Black Panther Party and influenced by the philosophies of Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar create a need for pause as the worldwide implications and potentials of collective liberation are analyzed and realized for the empowerment of people of African descent across the globe. By using generic rhetorical criticism where the text is revolution, the author captures the response of these oppressed groups to the oppressor. Thus, the rhetoric of revolution spans critiques of religion, to identification of "friend-enemies," to acknowledging the collective struggle of people of African descent. This research contributes to the literature on revolution and African world uplift by analyzing factors associated with impacting change in the Diaspora.
