The creation of the Organization of Afro-American Unity (OAAU) was announced on April 28, 1964 in New York City by Malcolm X, who is also known as El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz and as Omowale (“the child has come” in Yoruba). The OAAU was founded and modeled after the Organization of African Unity (OAU). [Source: Encyclopedia of Black Studies; Organization of Afro-American Unity]
