It is that time again when ACAA has to renew its leadership. It is an opportunity for everyone to serve and perhaps right the wrongs of the previous administration, and take ACAA to the next level.
We would like to ask for volunteers to serve on the election committee. We need 3 people maximum. These will report to the Board of Directors. Please keep in mind that those who serve on the election committee cannot be candidates for any post in the new administration.
Please volunteer to serve ACAA and the causes it defends. We especially encourage the younger generation to step forward and "take the baton from the older one".
Thanks
The Board of Directors

Al-Jazeera-English TV has recently (during this month of July) aired a series of reports on the Tuareg rebellion in northern Niger.
Journalist May welsh travelled to northern Niger and interviewed many Tuareg families as well as representatives of MNJ, the Tuareg movement that is currently fighting Niger’s government forces for a better distribution of Niger’s resources, better representation, justice and human rights. Above all for a fair share of the Uranium mining operations undertaken by Niger in the northern predominantly Tuareg areas. Al-Jazeera’s website also featured many articles and photos from May Welsh’s trip. You can watch all of these videos on Youtube or directly on Aljazeera’s website.

The Road Behind, The Road Ahead is a new documentary by aspiring artist Hacene Zennia. It was just released on DVD and can be purchased online (see below). The documentary has already been shown at the 2008 Los Angeles Amazigh Film Festival and at the 2008 Tafsut commemoration by ACAA, in New Jersey.
From the author: The Road Behind, The Road Ahead is about a return to the roots, my Berber, Amazigh roots in Algeria, North Africa. Over the years, I have witnessed the assimilation of my culture away from the French colonial period toward Arabization, and now toward the west with the advent of the internet and wireless communications. This documentary aims to capture traditional Berber culture before the last pure generation - the generation of my mother, who never went to school, speaks only Berber, and live in a traditional Berber culture - vanishes.
The DVD can be ordered from http://www.filmbaby.com/films/3111
You can see excerpts of the documentary on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch ?v=ZE-GH2z1T4U

We, members of the Amazigh Cultural Association in America (ACAA), gathered this Sunday, June 29, in Bridgwater, New Jersey to observe the 10th anniversary of the death of Lounès Matoub, make the following statement:
1. We pay tribute to the memory of Lounès Matoub for his artistic contribution, his fight and leadership, and in general for his contribution to the Amazigh cause and democracy.
2. We consider that the most beautiful tribute that we can pay him is to work so that his hopes and those he instilled in the hearts of many Amazigh youth become reality. For that we call upon all Imazighen wherever they may be, to gather their strength to ensure the prosperity of their identity and culture and especially to unite in the face of adversity.
3. We invite the Amazigh youth to organize and build the future of the Amazigh people on the foundations and the sacrifice of Lounès Matoub.
4. We commit ourselves to continuing to strengthen our association and collaborate with other associations to contribute to the development of our people and culture with Lounès Matoub as a role model.
5. We, members of ACAA, consider that we lost not only a leader, but also a friend. Lounès Matoub’s contribution to ACAA through two concerts in New York and San Francisco in 1993 will remain memorable.
6. On June 25, 1998, the Algerian government’s assassins wanted to silence Lounès Matoub forever. But 10 years later, Lounès Matoub is always alive in our hearts and his words still resound among us because Lounès Matoub represents hope and determination for the Amazighe youth.
For ACAA,
The Steering Committee for the Commemoration of the 10th Anniversary of the Assassination of Lounès Matoub
