The Kinijit train gathering momentum

The excitement surrounding the Kinijit leaders USA tour is growing. It is spreading and engulfing Ethiopian communities through out North America. It started in Washington DC. It spread to Boston, and to Upstate New York. Now it is in the San Francisco Bay Area as seen Thursday at Oakland Airport.

Saturday, Sept. 29, Kinijit leaders will attend a public meeting and fund raising event in Oakland. Like the one in Washington DC and Boston, it is expected to be the biggest and most exciting Ethiopian political gathering in the SF Bay Area.
