Pan African Flag Meaning & History The Pan-African flag was first adopted on August 13, 1920,  by the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League (UNIA-ACL), a group dedicated to improving the lives of African and African-descended people worldwide. The design was created by Marcus Garvey, founder of the UNIA-ACL, who was born in Jamaica and lived in the US for over a decade. For these reasons, the flag is also often called the “Marcus Garvey flag” or “UNIA flag.” Today, the Pan Africa flag is a widely used symbol of Black solidarity and unity. Each color has a specific meaning: Red is for the bloodshed in the quest for Black liberation, black is for the people the flag is meant to represent, and green is for the vegetation and natural resources of the African continent. The design of this flag has inspired several African nations to create similar national symbols, often using the same colors. In addition to the African diaspora abroad, the countries that fall within Pan-Africanism include: Algeria Guinea Sierra Leone Angola Guinea Bissau Somalia Benin Kenya South Africa Botswana Lesotho Sudan Burkina Faso Liberia Swaziland Burundi Libya Tanzania Cameroon Madagascar Togo Cape Verde Malawi Tunisia Central African Republic Mali Uganda Chad Mauritania Zambia Congo Mauritius Zimbabwe Djibouti Mozambique   Egypt Namibia   Equatorial Guinea Niger   Ethiopia Nigeria   Gabon Rwanda   The Gambia Sahrawi Republic   Ghana Senegal
